TASCAM TAPES - LIMITED WHITE VINYL EDITION

Description

The return of the most explosive Dutch trio! Dewolff is back to haunt your stereo this winter, but this time in a much more compact and stripped-down version. No drum kit, no Hammond organ, or guitar amp on these Tascam Tapes! An album entirely written, played, and recorded on the road, yet it sounds as if the band spent months in a $50,000-a-day studio! On the road, there were 15,000 km of inspiration, billions of particles floating in the air waiting to be transformed into songs! As if there was too much to fit into these tracks, they reduced the possibilities to 4 tracks… The band wanted to do something completely different and had to adapt to the confined spaces available to them: the back of the tour van or the tiny dressing rooms of concert halls, places where the band could only use small, portable items like a pocket synth, a drum sampler… For their seventh album, their studio essentially fit into a suitcase. Tascam Tapes was recorded on a Tascam Porta Two, an 80s 4-track cassette recorder. The only equipment used was a sampler with old soul and funk drum samples, a battery-powered synth, and a guitar, all plugged directly into the 4-track!
