Description
SWANS
Manege, Muenchen, Germany
September – 20 – 1987
Rec. Info:
Aiwa Walkman with plugged on mics -> MC -> This cassette (TDK SA90) (1stgen.) -> playback on Harman Kardon CD 491 -> Audio recorder -> WAV (16/44) -> Audacity (edit/remaster) ->
The recording is a bit uneven, and the clarity of the vocals are buried in the mix. Must’ve been loud as hell.
RAW TAPE. Musically this is an almost full hour nightmare and a physical and psychic challenge for both artists and audience. Turn up your speakers
and frighten your neighbours. But not too much, as they probably call for emergency or exorcism…
