Sequences Audio tape No 1

Sequences Magazine

Only one edition this month due to moving my daughter & son-in-law out of my place into their newly renovated home. Meanwhile, I present our first Sequences audio tape from 1992 remastered was born from the demise of the UK Electronic music audio magazine, Inkeys and the short-lived Syntrax. Our debut edition, released in 1992, was the only one mastered on audio cassette, which, unfortunately, is now unplayable. This is a remastered version without the banter between tracks (we couldn’t extract) using the original CDs & cassettes (which, luckily, were okay). There were no downloads in those days. All promos came by post & visiting various festivals; the tracks on the original tape were cut short, but now they are complete except for those that needed an edit due to their length. I was a complete novice starting this project with no experience. I have to blame my good friend for many years Clive Littlewood (Electronical Dreams), for starting this audio magazine. Armed with only a cassette recorder, no software, and no mixer, adding banter between tracks was a very tedious stop-start affair. Looking back now, it was very primitive, and I’m somewhat embarrassed listening to the original tape now. I purchased a DAT recorder & a simple mixer for later editions onwards, which made it easier to compile the tapes.
