1:13:33 – Welcome to Tape Land! On each episode, I’ll present the audio of a cassette tape or historic material from my personal archives.
Another great find! The tape itself just has “FEN†(my initials) written on it, and I don’t think I’ve ever heard it since I recorded it. It’s a rare window into the world of 1990 – 31 years ago! At the time, I was working on my “Nomadi†project which I would rename “Obliviana†soon thereafter. After going through many bizarre phases, Obliviana would eventually lead to The Onsug that we know and love today.
