I just bought a casette tape player
and a bunch of tapes from Digitalis Limited.
Tapes rule! |
Yeah, tapes are the best. I love listening to the tape player in my car while on a long drive. I still make mix tapes quite often.
|
Making mix tapes is only fun, I personally think they are one of the most personal gifts you can make for someone else. I mean, you must actually listen to each song as it's being recorded, which require a lot of thought.
|
My favorite thing to put on tapes is classical music, and modern classical like Harry Partch. Hearing this (typically) really clean, well-produced sound... somewhat degraded... sounds cool. Obviously, drone and ambient works perfectly for tape, I'd say 3/4ths of Robe.'s albums are on tape for this very reason, we specifically produced albums with the wobbly horns and tape hiss in mind.

I've been listening to my Pine Smoke Lodge tapes a lot recently.
|
I want to make mixtapes for people, but none of them own tape players, can't even lend them vhs tapes, none of them have vcrs!
I love the tape player in my car. |
I'm going to buy one of the new iPods.

my cassette play in my car won't work. the cassette will go in, but no sound will come out. It just clicks. and man does it suck.
|
Ya know, you can make mix cds as well...
|
yes, adam is true, drone is perfect for tapes. that's why i'm giving Digitalis Ltd. a try, looks like there's plenty of gems there that I don't know of.
Plus, a tape is small, you can fit nice artwork into it, and it feels way more personal than CDs or even vinyls. |
I really should send you a tape sometime slavo. My schedule just never aligns with the hours of the post office around here (since I work 3rd shift and all, and am way too tired to go by there after work and it closes way before I go to work).
But yeah, I much prefer tapes to cd's. I am not really into vinyl (gasp! Shock!) -- I mainly listen to music in a car, so... |
you really should make me a mix tape, that might be more than awesome.
or, send me a Robe. tape, that'd rock even more. |
I would send you some Robe. tapes, but I don't have any.The other guy in the band keeps them all... but, on the plus side, he sends out tons of free stuff, all the time, and he goes to the post office many times a week.
But anyway, I'll see what I can do, when I get some time, I'd love to send to... Россия. |

One year I made mix CDs for christmas presents. I used printable CDs with the mirror finish and printed a processed sunset on 'em. I thought they looked friggin' cool. I put them in DVD cases and printed up a list of the songs and a brief description of why I picked 'em. |
Bytor Peltor makes the absolute best mixtapes.
|
YES, I love tapes.
