Finlay Shakespeare is an electronic musician who creates his own music and has built his own synthesizer equipment throughout his teenage years. 'Illusion + Memory' is the third full-length physical LP of Shakespeare's utterly unique and sophisticated output. His obsession and knowledge of late '70s and early '80s electronic pop music is once again at the forefront of this intense and dynamic release. However, this is not some retro throwback. Shakespeare's deep understanding of his machines breathes new life into a genre of music once defunct.
