Memory of Jane is the alias of 21-year-old British-French musician and producer Maïlé Doremus-Cook, who splits his time between France and southeast London, where he lives in Brockley/Lewisham. A self-taught multi-instrumentalist with a background in jazz piano and early interests in animation and film, Doremus-Cook has developed a sound that feels instinctive and precise, marked by minimalism, melancholy and control.

His production style mixes glitchy lo-fi electronics with fragile songwriting, often using warped rhythms, clipped vocal lines and quiet restraint. At times it recalls the early work of James Blake in its use of space and distortion. You can hear hints of Amnesiac-era Radiohead in the ambient passages, as well as touches of jazz and soul injected into certain moments. Some tracks drift toward dream-pop, others sit closer to leftfield electronica. His voice threads everything together, unpolished and honest, often sitting low in the mix like a thought forming in real time.

He debuted in March 2023 with How You Make Me Feel, a sparse and emotionally open track that would later feature on his first EP In The Double, released that June. The five-track collection includes Above Your Head, So Pacific, No Answers, How You Make Me Feel and Left Alone, and introduced an artist more interested in atmosphere and feeling than big gestures.

Since then, he’s gradually revealed more. Space Jumps and Loose Lines released in late 2023, and almost a year later, Eyes Talk released in October 2024, leaning more into sharper percussion and fragmented phrasing. In 2025, singles Praying I Don’t Fall and Souls and Seeds brought a clearer sense of shape, more confident, slightly more direct, while staying close to the introspective tone that runs through all his work.

These five singles are expected to appear on Memory of Jane’s debut album Unsinking The Cypress, out via Blue Flowers Music on 8 August 2025.
