Lost Tapes was formed in 2012 by Pau Roca and RJ Sinclair. Both members had formerly found success in other bands: Roca in the indie group
La Habitación Roja, and Sinclair in the punk outfit
Tokyo Sex Destruction. Despite their other associations, the duo maintained that
Lost Tapes was anything but a side project. Following a string of digital single releases that echoed the jangling guitars and melodic power pop of the C-86 scene and associated groups like
the Pastels,
Lost Tapes released their debut long-player in 2016. Let's Get Lost captured the sound of the bands they were influenced by while maintaining a fresh approach. Roca and Sinclair swiftly followed up that record with a compilation in 2017.
