Doctor Memory

About Me

DOCTOR MEMORY is a running joke amongst a group of old friends. It stems from the brilliant writing of The Firesign Theatre. That name, given to a recording computer, has subsequently become personified to composer / guitarist Marlon Kempmann. (Isn't life just like that?) Having played in various gigging bands (Starblanket - Making Big Pictures - House of Giants), MK was also a member of the CYBERMONKEY recording project. In 2005, MK was invited by ANUBIS SPIRE to work and play on their stellar CHILDREN OF A FOREIGN FAITH cd. As well as recording solo works, DOCTOR MEMORY collaborates with several SoundClick musicians and, somewhere along the way, became the token Canadian in ACRYLIC PRISM. They say that the musical stylings of Habib Al-Faez (bass player for THE MOTHER FAKIRS) are strikingly similar to MK's. But then again, that's just the type of thing they would say. Isn't it?
