GoH-1008: Don Mandarin - winds of the asuras

Unique and captivating, hypnotic recordings captured into obscure, lo-fi esthetics. Continuous, discordant guitar drones, repetitive hummings and processed field recordings evoking a strange, ritual atmosphere.

Saw a nice post in the Audio #Cassette Revival #FB group about the "Home Taping is killing music" campaign of the #musicindustry in the #eighties. Made an updated version with help from Dall-E (plus some manual cleanup). Use it for your #hometaping!
Home Taping Is Killing Music: When the Music Industry Waged War on the Cassette Tape During the 1980s, and Punk Bands Fought Back

The first time I saw the infamous Skullcassette-and-Bones logo was on holiday in the UK and purchased the very un-punky Chariots of Fire soundtrack. It was on the inner sleeve. “Home Taping Is Killing Music” it proclaimed. It was? I asked myself. “And it’s illegal” a subhead added.
