About this podcast
We dig into the mighty tape box and randomly select cassettes to listen to in the hopes of discovering an interesting home recording... and then we listen to our main cassette (the episode titles) and use our instruments to create a remix on the fly!
If you like cassette tapes then this is the podcast for you!
