RECORDING

tracked in a basement with no heat. one mic. one shitty interface. a tape echo that won't stop drifting. we kept the drift.

mixed twice — once at home, once at the kitchen table. mastered to tape and never re-mastered. what you hear is the second pass and the only pass.

the cassette is a real-time dub from a CrO₂ master. we sit at the deck and run them off in real time, two at a time. it takes us a week to do a hundred. that's why there are 200.

WHAT IT IS / ISN'T

this tape will not be on streaming. ever. if you've got a digital copy, that's your bandcamp purchase, not a license. don't upload it. thanks.

no remix, no bonus, no deluxe. eleven tracks, side A and side B, 38:21. when the tape ends it ends.

★ if a track skips on your deck — clean the heads. ours skip too. it's the cassette, not the master. usually.

DUBBED IN REAL TIME ✶ 200/200
FROM A6 — "THE SLOW CALVING" the shelf goes silent first / then it speaks once /a sound like a cathedral coughing —we kept the cough. we kept the cathedral.we kept the quiet after.

WHAT THEY WROTE

3 PIECES · NO PRESS RELEASE WAS SENT

“Refuses to release on streaming and somehow that refusal is the loudest thing on the tape. Production sounds like ice shelves calving — that's not metaphor, that's the mix.”

TINY MIXTAPES — FEB '26

“Internal rhyme three- and four-deep, delivered at the speed of a nervous system. Reward third and fourth listens; punish casual ones.”

PASTE OF FROST (ZINE) — ISSUE 11

“200 cassettes, no streaming, no licensing. A small, exact gesture against a very large, very vague era.”
