Autoreverse (Nina Garcia et Arnaud Rivière)

(vraiment passionnant, très impressionnée par le jeu très corporel -pas dans le sens physique, dans le sens integré au corps de Nina Garcia. Et les deux etaient parfaitement justes, parfaitement dans l'instant et dans la construction d'une matière)

National/Panasonic RQ-383 // Autoreverse Cassette Recorder With Voice Activated System (Japan, 1980s)

[cinemaocd]

Today, I spent some time trying to recreate my Thomas Cromwell playlists that have been eroded by the impermanence of the internet. I've lost links and subscriptions...I pieced them together as best I could from memory. I do have a physical CD of one, but its hopelessly fucked from being in my car for like three years. It sucks to lose these little pieces of memorabilia for me.

My playlist philosophy is it's gotta be an even number of songs. This is because when I started making them as "mixed tapes" for friends and then long distance boyfriends and then that guy at the office who was technically separated from his wife who I wanted to be my boyfriend who is now my husband of 22 years; and you needed an even number because the cassette has two sides.

You get to the end, you open the deck, flip and press play. Car stereos had an autoreverse for cassettes sometimes, but most home decks didn't.

I didn't have the ability to make a proper mix tape with audio cables until probably 1986. Before that I was making tapes by holding my boombox up to the tv, or taping songs off the radio. I got really good at cutting off djs. I liked to splice in quotes from films and tv shows as well. I had a mixed tape about the 1939 film of Wuthering Heights starring Laurence Olivier and Merle Oberon with quotes from the film and Beatles and Peter Gabriel songs...I did not have access to Kate Bush that was what a backwoods middle of fuckass North Dakota life I led. I avoided a cliche, but I had no choice.

So yeah, it has to be an even number of tracks and it has to have a runtime of 60-90 minutes, which were the standard sizes. Maxell came out with the UR 60 and I had stacks of these:

The UR60s that I remember had yellow and teal labels and they were clear as well so you could see the whole tape.

Then there was a level up from that in the late 80s, the XL

And theeeeese were the shit. If you had a proper component stereo, which I did by this time, you could do an album on each side. I traveled all over England, Scotland and Ireland with tapes like this of Bob Dylan, Nina Simone, Cat Stevens, The Pogues. But it was the mix of Billy Bragg songs that long distance boyfriend #2 sent me that I wore the tape out. That was an XLII because he fitted most of Bragg's first four records on there. He wrote liner notes...whole sentences, saying which songs reminded me of him.

The next phase of my mixed tape era happened when I was at work full time with the guy in the office that I mentioned... there was a discussion at an after work drinks party about a mixed tape being a thing you make for someone you are super into, and someone said "yeah, you don't just do that." So I made him a road trip tape called, "you don't just do that" and it was all the songs that reminded him of me and we played it non-stop on our road trip down the Mississippi river camping on Highway 61, in my 86 Isuzu trooper with the pioneer deck and speakers I bought with the windfall from my first book. I had an action figure of Chewbacca on the dash and a futon in the back. He must have been in love with me because the levels were so erratic and fucked up on that tape and he is a huge audio nerd with his Linn turntable and CD player. He made some tapes too: XLIIs of pairs of albums: Roxy Music with J. J. Cale ; Paul Simon's Graceland with the Best of the Meters; all with excellent sound quality and perfect levels.

After that came CDs and I have made a few but mostly I would make mp3 playlists, and I started naming them around 2015. I don't do spotify, I make playlists on youtube, or amazon music or just in file folder. I still have a cd player in my car, so I just burn CDs. It's not the same. I miss the cassettes.

These days I mostly make playlists for myself for writing. If it is a ship I will sometimes split the songs between POV for each person, if that makes sense? Another reason the philosophy works.

If anyone has a way of doing playlists that makes them easy to share and backup without a subscription or hearing ads, I'd love to hear it...
