“After almost 10 years playing in a rock band I had a mountain of untouched songs, ideas and lyrics that I really wanted to work on” enthuses Pete Thompson who writes, records and performs under the name play_rewind_eject. “I didn’t want to make music that just sounded the same as the band I was in so I took an adventure into the world of samples, midi and synths to create something a little bit different” he continued.

play_rewind_eject is certainly different to you’re average solo singer/songwriter and the free ‘This is where the Days go’ EP is a fine example of that. Released as a free download by Oh Mercy! Records and available to download from http://www.playrewindeject.com, this 4 track sampler gives a great introduction to the sound of play_rewind_eject.

Influenced by a range of acts, from 60’s mods The Small Face through to Leonard Cohen, play_rewind_eject has been busy in his studio recording demos for the album and preparing for his live shows. “I’ll be hitting the live circuit in the summer and I can’t wait to get up on the stage and deliver these songs”.

The EP has been mastered by Pete Maher of Topfloor Music who was more than happy to apply his magic to the finished mixes “Anyone with good taste will appreciate this. I honestly don’t think songwriting and production gets better”. With accolades like this from industry professionals it could be an interesting journey for play_rewind_eject over the coming months.
