Tampa-based project Dreams on Tape compels with a melancholic, nostalgic glistening throughout “Good Times.” The single brings forth reflective vocals, jangling guitars, and hazy synths — converging with a sweepingly melodic quality, hypnotically emitting a jangle-pop sophistication. “I lose myself in time,” the forlorn vocals let out. “The fault within my mind, in dreams I try to find, my way back to the good times.”
The band is the moniker of Jake Benfant, who crafts everything from his apartment, resulting in a clearly memorable sound that touts a lingering resonance. “Good Times” represents the first single from the project’s upcoming EP, Tomorrow’s Unknown.
