Arrival of stock - Tape Packs


Sitting at the space ship looking down the hallway at the new arrival of stock



In a previous post I mentioned some ideas I had for some new things for Off The Record. So the idea to record to cassette definitely blossomed. Last Wednesday I picked up a tape deck (which I still need to test) and today my tape order came. Pretty cool getting 100 blank tapes and cases in the mail. Well not mail but delivered. I was at work and white van man kindly left the package in the lobby.

3 cassette presentation boxes

I also picked some 'box sets' as you can see above. Will be making some ultra limited collections with amazing things inside so keep your eyes peeled for those.

Each tape is 90 mins long, that is 45 per side. Sets will be recorded live direct to cassette from Wax Jambu with some slight ambience on the recordings. Obviously, there will have to be some testing to get the recordings right but I think they would sound good and be an excellent piece to own. I know tapes are not the most used format in the world now but the whole ethos of the night is harking back to the analogue times and these tapes will all be limited.  (plus I will throw in a download code)

Anyway, keep telling your friends about the night. Got some imitators popping up round London so got to keep this the number one!
