All the Other Roses but Mine

This album is composed mostly of samples culled from slowed-down cassette tapes. Mostly, those samples were chopped up, sped up, stretched out, slowed down, pitched this way and that, and processed to create a murky kind of in-between, a shaky liminal space. The project was sparked by Dogbotic's Cassette Hacking class, not only because it taught me to slow down a cassette player's motor, but because they sent me two tapes to hack with: Fun Rock, a compilation of rock songs that are fun, and Wilson Phillips' self-titled album. I dug some more material out of a homemade mixtape labeled "Random Access Memories III," which I discovered at my local record store.
