Demo cdrs or tapes?

no, they are quite easily understandable when they speak normally, but they have many funny words/sayings translated litterally from english to french, like car=char, lighter=litaire, etc...they also tend to roll their R's like our old peasants in the deep country. Céline Dion is the most known Canadian here. every humorist mocks her. it's hilarious :lol!:

Now, what about drunken Canadian french people?? Are they easy to understand after they just drank a bottle of "La Fin Du Monde"

Tapes dont break when you sit/sneeze/bite them. CD-rs do. The only problem is when you have a pile of tapes without labels on them.

If you find it hard to find tapes, look in skips outside hi-fi stores for them. Its skummy, but I got about 100 in one. And a pack of butter.

Hi,
What is a "Skip" exactly?
And was is to be skummy?

I don't speak english everydays, and a good tape-tip is always welcome

Skip = bin
not the crisps. but I guess you don't have them. Or call them crisps either.

Well, I don't know these words either... But I guess you mean in the markets during weekend?

I'd like to find some all-black tapes such as the ones you sent me, Callum, but that's already cool to find good quality tapes for an ok price...

The ones he sent me seemed to be 'naturally' black, but give me your tip!

Ok its easy, I learned how to make tapes black from Johnny of MANIAC.

What you do is get a bunch of tapes from a market or thrift store, or even from someones garbage lol.

Take a scrub pad that you would use for doing dishes, and apply some "rubbing alcohol" and rub the "lettering" off the cassette tape. Normally, the printing on the tape will rub off without a problem, and now you have a plain black tape that is ready to be recorded over.

hmmm, ok thanx for the tip.

But that only erases the writings, it doesn't make the tape really black, right?

The ones Callum sent me are totally black, no light could come and go through the plastic

Drink the alcohol, knock yourself out, and everything goes black!

Yes, the are tottaly black as long as they were in the first place. You know?

If some slight scratches appear, just use a black marker to cover them up.

During a long time I liked cassettes but now I prefer CDr because it sounds better than a cassette.

the quality of sound is better because it's digital, you see what I try to say ?

too be honest, I guess it depends. For certain black metal recordings sound proper on cassette, and on cdr they sound too polished or want to be "raw". I guess it depends on the style of music and attitude of the band.

Most old death metal sounds better on tape imo. Sounds rawer, primitive, more vicious, warm etc

Ah yes I didn't think to this. I think you're right when you say it depends of the style. But some black metal bands plays too raw music so I think a tape doesn't help us. Finally it depends of a lot of thing...

Stuff like modern death metal sounds just as good on cdr imo. But the older stuff, old demos etc sound better on tape I think.

Some black metal is too raw even for cdrs to make it sound not like garbage! DEATH TO MSBM! :sarcastic:
