    Cassette + Digital Album

    Limited to 25 copies, these tapes were dubbed at home with care and love. Each tape was produced from the original 24bit 48k file at regular speed while being monitored off of the playback head on my trusty Marantz PMD 224. Covers were printed at home and cut and folded by hand. Labels were made using the Dymo labeling system. The tape program is 14 minutes and 53 seconds long a side, but the 15 minute a side tapes are somehow less than that. The last song on Side A is cut off slightly. Sometimes it is seamless and you wouldn't know, other times it is obvious, and I like it like that.

    I am not saying that I won't make more of these, but while they were dubbed with care and love, I didn't love doing it. I do not think I will ever dub anything myself ever again, so if I make more they will be made by a place.

    If you live in Akron, I will drop it off and refund your shipping charges.

  • Compact Disc (CD) + Digital Album

    I am making my parents a CD, so I might as well make one for you as well if that's what you're into. These are CDRs that I run through a printer. The covers are printed, cut and folded at home, and the plastic drop sleeve is a cut down 5x7 ziplock bag. They come out fine I guess. Please allow me one week to get around to making this for you before mailing it.

about

This is the most tracks I have recorded for a song in a long time. I recorded the drums originally as loops for Tucker (who plays on the song). He is/was working on an isolation record and was telling me about his lack of drum recording capability so I recorded some for him. I ended up using the drums on this song. My backing guitar, synth guitar and synthesizer were recorded as one take to two tracks direct. I then recorded the sewing machine scratches and the train robbers in a pass, and went back and added bass and a solo guitar. At this point the song was like ten minutes and Erin told me it was too long so I edited it down to 4-ish minutes. This is something I rarely do and feels like cheating, but at this point I was invested. I sent it to Tucker and he sent back 4 crushingly doomy guitar tracks.

The additional guitars were performed and recorded by Tucker Theodore Haendler.
