Converting Old Music

I’m in the midst of converting really old (late 80s) mostly original music recordings to a digital format for posterity. Oh. My. God. Some of this is hilariously bad. There’s nothing like doing multi-track recording on a dual cassette player with out of tune instruments to brighten your day and make your ears squeal like little piggies.

I’m going to post a few of these “gems” once I’m done, but in the meantime let me get you prepared…

If you have pitch sensitive ears: don’t listen.
If you are a music critic: don’t listen.
If you don’t like bad music: don’t listen.

If you like making fun of people: listen.

Yup, it’s going to be a flamefest and I’m going to be the fodder for the fire. I’ll be sure to include some of the key players, though, like my brother and Mookee so they can share in the grief.
