Introducing the Sonorus Cassette Series, Volume 1
Joe and I did some recording last week. Just the two of us, down in the basement, blasting through some old Harry and the Potters favorites, all the while running everything into the old Tascam Portastudio 424. We recorded a total of seven different cassettes, each of them 20 minutes in length, each with a totally different tracklist. The result is what we hope is the first in a series of cassette-only releases.
We are offering these seven cassettes for sale, but there’s a catch. We are only selling one copy of each: the original MASTER copy. A moment in time, captured on tape, for your ears only. We’re not even saving a copy for ourselves.
Some performances are sloppy and raw. Some are haunting and beautiful. They are all, unquestionably, unique.
Each cassette comes with the following:
We are offering this first volume at $25 per cassette plus a few dollars shipping. These cassettes will be available, in numbered sequence, to the first seven people who email me at harryandthepotters@yahoo.com. First person to email will get Tape #1, second person gets Tape #2, etc. One cassette per customer. are now SOLD OUT!
These SOLD OUT pretty quick, so please add your name to our Sonorus Cassette Series mailing list below and you’ll be the first to be notified when subsequent volumes in the series are released.
This was a really fun project, so hopefully we’ll do some more of them. Let us know what you think of the idea!
