bought a 70s reel-to-reel tape machine at Goodwill for 25 bucks. Turns out it’s literally the same exact model that Richard Nixon recorded the Watergate tapes on. So naturally I’ll be recording indie rock on it. I’m still getting it up and running again so #watch this space

so much fun and i just got this beautiful refurbished tascam as an early birthday gift from my lover :') nothing compares to twiddling knobs and tape wobble. could be partly rooted in zillennial nostalgia for a time i hardly remember but i think anyone can appreciate analog warmpth

I have the mental illness where if I go on eBay or reddit and see deals on broken laptops, used GPU’s and film cameras, I must buy them. Buying broken/as-is means nothing if you know how to fix them. The Goodwill by me has blessed me with 3 mechanical keyboards complete with Dorito dust encrusted keys. 2 of them I flipped after I cleaned & tested them and made a cool $50 from that. Vinyl I only just started collecting like idk a year ago? The most recent vinyl record I got was the GTA Vice City Flash FM soundtrack

Initially a weird experience but so many studios don’t seem to care about any of their catalog from the 1970s and prior. So they don’t even bother to copyright strike on YouTube or Vimeo or Archive.org. ive watched Laura, Kiss Me Deadly, the Elaine May’s Heartbreak Kid, Stepford Wives just online for free. I couldn’t even find a place to rent or buy Elaine May‘s Heartbreak Kid it was nuts
