1:24:56 – Welcome to Tape Land! On each episode, I’ll present the audio of a cassette tape or historic recording from my collection. It’s a way to help motivate me to release more of my archives.

It’s been nearly six years since I recorded Part 1 of the audiobook version of my “failed science fiction novel” Severe Repair. Since I never got back to it, I figured I’d see how it would sound for the reading to be continued by a computer voice. It sounded alright, so here it is!

CUPLINE 4: WINTER STADIUM THEM read by “Azure Harper MAI-Voice-2”
