Troy Schafer—Survey of a Broken Tape Recorder cdr

Troy Schafer
Survey of a Broken Tape Recorder
Signal Dreams




So I am pretty sure this is exactly what it sounds like. A bit of experimentation with a broken tape recorder. There are some pretty jarring sounds on this that seem like the type of thing that you discover mare than create and I am glad Mr. Schafer decided to share this with us. There is a real beauty in something being so broken that it should be thrown out becoming something that we can explore and rediscover. Even if it was thrown out after this recording it got to have a second life and contribute a little bit more. I’m not try to anthropomorphize this tape recorder but Mr. Schafer found and recorded one hell of a death rattle.
