Excellent releases, each one is very unique and sounds amazing!

I usually buy 2, 1 for the car and 1 for the house. Further tapes brought life back to my car deck.

Congrats Mark, I look forward to your upcoming releases. Thanks for being a gent :)


So f*cking cool!

I played my Information Society cassette so much the print/writing wore off the cassette and it started playing with a weird slower pitch now and then.

Reminds me of RRRecords' RRRecycled sub-label: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RRRecords#RRR_Sub-labels_and_series

Casettes are cool, so is vinyl, when you can get hold of it. Especially with these limited releases its really difficult to get the music in South Africa. Digital releases please!

Yeah cool concept, but 100 copies only is a bit too limited imo.

@pipecock Sound "quality" is average at best for cassettes. Electronic music does sound "good" though with tape, mainly due to the reasons mentioned in the article, ie bass frequencys sounding great given how compression is done.

The deterioration factor with cassettes is a massive problem. Sound quality will progressively get worse far quicker than any vinyl release would. Wouldn't stop me picking up some of their tape releases though to enjoy them while they last.


dance music genre & production trends are all about recycling once old and tired concepts into new, exciting interpretations. kudos to cul & chloe for applying that concept to the distribution medium. gotta stand out in this day & age.

well written article, btw.


the trick is to surrender to the flow

lovely


Back in a day when i used to listen the tape, i have to listen whole, now with mp3 you can skip but you can miss something...


That's right, the people don't come because you grandiose motherfuckers don't play shit that they like. If you played the shit that they like, then people would come, simple as that.
