Nice mix of genres on this one. The comic strip in the Jcard is a nice touch too.

This is Tapes Not Dead Vol. 5. 21 songs by bands that release to cassette. 2022.

Oh nice! I'll have to check these all out.

Yeah I want this for physical music: cassettes, vinyl, cds.

I working on the main technical article for the next tape of bitpunk.fm today. It's going to dive into analog audio scrambling that show up even today. But there will be a reading from the classic book on this tech.

If you want to get on the tape, the reel is almost done. Please submit your audio this week. I can setup a simplex address if y'all prefer to be more private or just link/send it here.

The following issue will go out in Octo ber if you can't make this deadline.

GM. Here's a flower pun to start the day.

Lift up the receiver I'll make you a beliver. 🎶

Day 2 of (re)learning trumpet. I'm not horrible! I might be able to pull this off in 2 weeks.

Any #trumpet players out there that can give me some tips?

I still love american half and half but I've switched to espresso only with aeropress. I was drinking a lot of half and half which isn't great. And my local roaster is pretty good so I'm appreciating the coffee more now.

That's a bitcoin band name if I ever heard one 🤣

I thought this was an effect pedal for a moment 🤣

After some cleaning, this guy is playing nicely. 3 cassette decks and the top one is removable as a walkman 🤯

Takes D batteries too with removable speakers. So it should do pretty well while walking down the street on my shoulder.

I really enjoyed this tape. The band is eversame from Slovakia.

I like what's going on with fountain and wavelake and all, but I'm going back to physical media. We need the splits-from-rss feed on physical music products!

I think a lot of kids shows could do with some metal overdub.

Well, you are definitely using training data that chatgpt isn't 😀

I pretty much use a cassette walkman exclusively now. One of the benefits is I have a headphone amp with 3 ports so I also carry extra headphones.

I've then had family / friends share the amp and we've just listened to music together, perfectly in sync, and ignored the rest of the world. 🎶❤️

Ah yeah, brings me back. There's nothing like being on the sea at night.

Haha, ok. I wasn't sure if it was a recording "closet" or not. Right on. Gear storage is important too!

Yeah nice. You should mirror #bitcoin core. 😎

One of the books that makes you happy for literature. Wow, what a review!

So good. I played it (again) for my family. We all enjoyed it. 😀
