The idea here was to base a simple song around the effect of a handheld tape recorder being paused and un-paused repeatedly, during a recording. Most of the vocal sounds were August. It sounds strange now.

Kind of more a collection of the sounds I was making in Santa Cruz than anything else. I suspect I’d just discovered Propellerhead’s software. Something like that. But a lot of this is just me playing around with a tape recorder as well.

You remember the first time you figured out how to flip the tape over and make music play backwards? Well, I do. It was when I made this song.

An attempt at writing a love letter to a girl I’d just started dating.
