yeh Tony,
how is it some of the DJs on WFMU don't even have a playlist such as the reggae show on Sunday morning -(John Sarge).
D/O have a playlist but no track by track mp3/pop up play facility?
Surely John Sarge lets WFMU know what he is playing before the show?
eh it is 2013 with some easy software audio mix programs!

I miss seeing wads of unspooled cassette tape from murdered tapes gasping their last by the curbside. Once a common site, now as rare as white lung disease in a southern mill town.

X-raying cassettes can produce some very interesting results -- happened to an acquaintance whose bag was x-rayed at the airport.

I had a friend that did an art/sound exhibit based on found tape (found outdoors) in 2004, probably the tail end of when that would have been possible.

Avatar 1:45pm
still b/p:

A less common sight but an interesting changing-times one came when my place of long employment was winding down and clearing out. Threw out thousands of 3/4" videotapes and also many reels of 1" tape, but the naked 1" reels were salvaged for aluminum scrap value. Great boxes full of unspooled tape...off to the dump. A swell project an artist coulda made, though exposure to all that old deteriorating tape might not be the healthiest choice.
The low-tech method we set up to let a few reels at once unspool themselves was gallery-worthy on its own.
Avatar 1:46pm
DARK STAR MAN:

its a little too dark for say Popol Vuh or Ashra Tempel but sounds close to German Spoken language!

Hey there, NGH and still b/p! I have fond memories of seeing tangled cassette tape hanging from trees.

anyone out there ever record music audio onto video tape.
Tried it myself and got really good results - bass in particular was well extended!

@ tape trader: Aha ! A cassette compilation series -- haven't heard them (obviously!)
Avatar Swag For Life Member 2:05pm
Rich in Washington:

@DARK STAR MAN: I used to use a hi-fi VCR as a means to record radio programs, using the timer feature. I found the sound quality as good as - if not better - than standard cassettes.
Avatar 2:13pm
Tony Coulter:

@ tape trader: I take it you would recommend the "International Sound Communication" series -- I will seek it out. I discovered Famlende Forsøk via their LP, not from any comps (how I came across the LP I don't remember).

Avatar 2:29pm

@ tape trader: I discovered a lot of great music through similar series, like "Insane Music for Insane People, " "Sensationnel," "Bad Alchemy," etc. It *was* a fun way find out about music and get nice artwork at the same time!

I use to record FMU airchecks on to cassettes. I had years worth of them and was going to dump them before moving out west, but Ken actually asked me to give them to the station. They are currently gathering dust somewhere at HQ central.

even my toes were singing along to that bubblegum track!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 2:49pm
Rich in Washington:

I still record airchecks of my show at home, from terrestrial radio, despite the station doing auto-archiving now. The sound quality's inferior and subject to stupid server related glitches.
Avatar 2:50pm
Tony Coulter:

@ davex: Uncredited Ella -- guess that's what they mean by scrap material!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 2:51pm
davex:

And Ella was still very much around at the time. I suppose she probably never had a chance to hear Famlende Forsøk though.
Avatar 2:52pm
Tony Coulter:

Maybe that was them jamming together.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 2:54pm
davex:

Haha, she (and whatever band that was originally) had great consistency over decades.
Avatar 2:54pm
Tony Coulter:

I jest, of course. I think FF were sort of treating it like a found object and (minimally) messing with it.

Another uncredited credit goes to the Chick Webb Orchestra - wasn't hard to find.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 2:56pm

Yes, it was surprising how minimally they changed the track. I wasn't at first even expecting Ella to come on after the long instrumental.
