Wow, I had more updates than I thought, but it will still fit on a single side of a C90 so I'm good.
Many things discussed, but the key takeaway: send more postcards! Cassettes make great holiday gifts and for the mixtape I'll do the top 33 (or whatever fits) from HGH as a mixtape gift to you or to a secret friend!
Ok, some updates about the cassette experiments. Always more V4V drama going on so I compare V4V markets in a eastern vs western perspective.
Also, I recorded this to tape _first_ and pushed the level a bit too hot. So the audio of this one has a kind of 90s lofi vibe. I think it's still listenable, and next time I might lower the level a bit, but if you hate it, let me know.
I respond to Sir Spencer and Laurien, provide some updates on my albyhub situation, and talk about why I think podcasting 2.0 may be the modern cassette.
