1991 release ** "A great deal of the newest music is found only on cassettes or computer discs that are freely exchanged through the mail or available through word-of-mouth contacts and small publications soliciting contributions. (One might be reminded of Frankie Mann's remark that some of the best music in the country is made by "12 year olds in their attics with cassettes.") This is a collection with some of the most inspired, sometimes gawd-awful, but always unique samplings of the cassette culture -- maybe more in the air than underground. There are 21 selections: Heather Perkins' "What You Think Will Happen Will," Ric E. Braden's "Columbus Ave. 10 PM," Jim Steele's "Splatter Experience of the Green Gods," Daniel Johnston's "Grievances," John Wiggins' "Timbre Melody," Yximalloo's "China-Pong," Qubais Ghazala's "The Delphian Oracle," Frederick Lonberg-Holm's "The Second Minuet," Costes' "Oh Fortuna," the Kitchen Table Ensemble's "Exploded Views," Solomonoff & Von Hoffmanstahl's "Banzai Noir," Vosch's "Tunnel at Dawn," Philip Perkins' "Remoting (Excerpt From Berkeley Remote)," Minyy's "Sspress," Triptic of a Pastel Fern's "Shiny Things," Gregory Whitehead's "It Makes Me Blush...," Mystery Laboratory's "Excerpt From V.T.," Bat Lenny's "Delphi," Collapse/Relapse's "Webs," Hope Organ's "Sneaky," and a piece for which no composer is given entitled "Tentatively, a Convenience Drying Clothes Made Entirely From Zippers (Partial Cycle).""
