London based 3-piece Night Tapes today share new single ‘helix’, taken from their anticipated debut album portals//polaritieswhich will be released via Nettwerk Music Group on September 26thTo support the albumthe band will embark on a lengthy UK/EU, including a headline show at London’s Village Underground. Recent single ‘pacifico’ won widespread support from DIYNotionWonderlandThe Line Of Best Fit, Clash plus sustained support at BBC Radio1

Speaking on the new single, Night Tapes say; 

helix is about that moment when you’re on your way to meet someone new, someone important and you’re not sure if it is the best decision you’ve ever made or the worst. It is love that can completely transform our lives and take us from one place to another. subjective heavens , subjective hells. people do crazy things for love & all we can do is hope that they’re not attracted to the worst of what they been given. yet, sometimes the wrong person can take us to the right place.
