As promised, here is the 3rd GIFT available for download. This was our second micro cassette release that came out last June with the summer batch, limited edition 50. If you dig this stuff, keep your eyes out for the new 2 Hands on Knobs release space bath transformation, coming out soon on DSQ (c85, edition of 22).
We’ll post 2 new reviews soon and the 4th GIFT before the end of the year. Also, the new Gift batch is in the works and due out in January. Hope you all had a good Thanksgiving.

A good friend of mine forwarded me a link today about Brian Dettmer’s work. I couldn’t wait to post it, as it seems all too appropriate. He forms audio cassette tapes into skeletons. The above image is an elk skeleton made of tapes! F’ing amazing work!! Check out his site here: http://www.briandettmer.com/ or images on his Flickr. Curious though… I wonder if there’s any good tapes in there.

For those of you that might have missed this one (or you don’t have a player), we sent this miniature tape out with one of first releases last Spring – our first micro cassette! So adorable, so cute. We like to make our GIFTS available to everyone, so be sure to stay tuned in for our future gift posts! We should have a couple more in the coming weeks.
