My second project. It was 1989, I had no drum machine, no effects, no knowledge of EQ and no MIDI.
What I did have was a 4-track Tascam cassette machine, an 8-bit sampling keyboard, a third generation cassette copy of sounds to put in the sampler, a decades-old reel-to-reel tape machine rescued and repaired by my grandfather...and a cheap tape-splicing kit for making tape loops.
Oh, and a (betamax!) video recorder. With a copy of the previous night's movie, the soundtrack of which to be recorded onto the tape machine, to be played back in snippets of the music. My version of vocals.
