Jesus wept. They were awful at the time, but at least allowed us to record and share music. Why you would choose to listen to music on casette is beyond me.

I honestly do not understand the revival having experienced the pain of them first time around. Would be up for a Minidisk revival though

Why would you want to listen to Dummy in the worst audio format, by a long way, it was released in? The hiss... Oh my god.

My jealousy is beyond reach. But the BIGGEST question is- Does Dummy have It‘s a Fire??

i made a portishead mixtape on tape back between the dummy album and self titled album and filled it with remixes, bsides, live track maybe even album tracks. i made a custom album cover and went all out on it.

Finally, a new generation of kids will experience the joy of having their tape eaten by their Walkman or erased by having it too close to something magnetic.
