Oh well, last weekend I was going through a pile of old tapes and found two songs I already forgot myself! HAHA
So I cannot present two "new" songs, but rather two forgotten songs
One is some sort of vocalized soft-pop called "Run To You".
The other one is a eLeCtRoNiC soundscape called "Starchaser".
Both were recorded some 11 years ago on a 8-Track Tascam open reel and mixed with an old Fostex mixer, long before I discovered MP3.com HAHA. So the quality is a bit harsh and the singing more like a squeeking pig... HAHA
Nonetheless I thought somebody may have the same fun listening like I did when I found the forgotten tapes.
BTW... I found myself confirmed in the thinking again, that while the digital age is nice and all, nothing is better than to have a good old analog tape, blowing it free from the dust and just play it "voilĂ ". To restore digital sessions and looking for backups can be a pain instead. _________________ .

So, your tape had not melted, eh?
I had to bake my Ampex 456. |

I have 2 suitcases full of 4-track reel-to reel tapes from the late 70's early 80's.
Sadly, my 4-track Dokorder will only playback 3 tracks. _________________ STEVE IANNETTI |

Thank you guys for reviving the thread! HAHAHA
Well, there's nothing better than the good analog recordings.
No complications, huge saturation and fat sound:
