011: ‘It’s Like Porn For The Magnetically Attracted!’

Esoteric Modulation

In this weeks show we talk about our obsession for tape and Ben’s ‘West Coast Adventure’ over in Seattle at Patchwerks for the Velocity event. We focus on some of the artists at Velocity that have included tape within their set up with some great sound examples! From catching reels, to a ghosty Halloween contact mic, we talk about it all!
