I have a few copies of this release. Girls on Tape is a duo by Jeff Surak and me. We use almost exclusively (mini-)cassettes and various players. We do outdoor guerilla performances and louder shows in selected venues. Later this year we unite again for some shows in Berlin, and hopefully in various places in south-east Europe.
The cassette is released by the good people of coherent states in Athens.
From their press release:
Girls On Tape is the collaborating project that Jeff Surak and Rinus van Alebeek started some five years ago in Berlin. Coming from a long road of collaborating through the years and using various forms of media indeed, Jeff and Rinus vandalize each other’s ideas in a free concept that includes live manipulations on side A and Jeff’s sonic alchemy upon Rinus’ pre-compositions on side B. Tapes, walkmans, sound collages and spoken word parts are blended together in a, once again, peculiar and devastating way. Be it some early ZF-like experimentations or the artists’ unique talent of composing what exactly comes to mind whenever the words “cassette music” come up, we cannot but play the tape again and again and shout out loud the words: Freie! Kassettenkultur!
Price 8.50€ (please add shipping costs, you need to do this only once, also if you order more than one tape)
