1:34:30 – Welcome to Tape Land! On each episode, I’ll present the audio of a cassette tape or historic material from my personal archives.
Barely out of the 1980s, I was 22 years old, recently graduated from college, living at home with my parents in Bridgewater, NJ, and making vastly complex, vague, and delusional plans for some kind of entertainment system project called “Noyage”. I made a series of tapes called “On Noyage” describing these ideas, in a deraged fever dream fashion. Amazingly, over the years, this bizarre, delusional project eventually morphed into something real and worthwhile – Onsug Radio.
