The J-cards have arrived 🙌

These do not have audio on them (yet) as the album itself is not finished. I'll be doing a limited run of these (5) microcasettes exclusively as a Bandcamp pre-order when you get the album.

Getting the audio on them is going to be interesting to say the least, but im committed and have somewhat of a plan as to how to go about doing it properly as to not lose any audio quality while the transfer process happens.

These J-cards were created by Donkavitch on Etsy, and ill also be getting (25) cassettes made as well, since the microcasettes are so niche. I just need to find a good supplier of cassettes and someone who can do the J-cards for them right..

Panasonic RN-112 microcassette recorder, for forty bucks at a flea market.

You can also see I'm using a radio / compact cassette recorder hybrid to play back with a 3.5mm to tape adapter, just for a little more cassette goodness even if it's fake. The radio can't play or record real tapes anymore so that's the closest I'll get with it anyway.

This microcassette recorder got me into compact cassettes which I'm going to try and find a recorder for soon. Today at a thrift store I found six old tapes for like three dollars altogether, and I'll record over them for my own stuff. Maybe I'll make another post once I get a recorder I can use.
