all my "minimal wave" (for lack of a better term) friends have their own cassettes that indy labels produce for them to sell @ shows.
it's a popular method for the "alternative" crowd, but I couldn't really imagine what the average show goer would use a cassette for.
rather than it just being a way to support an artist.
But I must say I would love it if there was a label that released long DJ mixes on cassette.
it used to be back in the day (according to my older/wiser friends) you'd give a DJ a cassette at the start of their set,
and they would be recording their show live, then you take it home and enjoy that set...\

FOREVER

how can I forget the awesomeness of FUCK IT TAPES??

Phigure is here to say obvious shite and act like a tnuc/
No average show goer has a fucking tape deck anymore, in the land of ipods and iphones, and laptops, and serato.

I buy tapes when I want to support a band at that $5 level, and I like tapes for some kinds of music.
But I honestly believe VInyl will be my favorite listening format forever.

thanx wub, my homie had a shirt of that label/

Tell him I grabbed the Mediafire and it's proper fiyah

I'm a little confused at some of the stuff I see getting released on cassette that's all pristine nice clean production. Seems like putting that stuff on cassette is completely pointless.

I mean there's loads of stuff that fits the cassette sound. Very clean plinky plonky sounding electronic stuff is not it though

Oh yeah and saying no-one has tape machines is only half true. They're not so common anymore but I for one own a couple and loads of tapes.

its out

they also have 4 other new tapes out

Anyone seen the diy mixtapes?
Printable cassettes that have a usb connection.
They can take up to 2gb.
Plus you don't need a tape player because they double as an mp3 player.
I know it defeats the purpose considering no head being used by the player but still a clever idea.
