All music by Hanno Leichtmann: tapes, Sony WM-D6C, modular system, Telefunken equalizers, LXP-5. Recorded at Static Music Berlin. Hanno Leichtmann writes, "When The Tapeworm asked me to do a tape which referred to tape music or cassette culture, I immediately thought of my 30-or-so remaining tapes from my (back in the days) huge tape collection. I bought a Sony WM-D6C to play them back in good quality, took little snippets of favorite songs and ran them through a modular system. I made about 40 short static pieces, all about 1:30 long. They are highly influenced by and, at the same time, a homage to: John Oswald's Plunderphonics, Curd Duca's Easy Listening 1-5, Stock, Hausen And Walkman's Me 7", and above all, Yasuaki Shimizu's Music for Commercials." Hanno Leichtmann, Berlin, May 16, 2013.
