After receiving a mixtape from the Nederlands recently I -obviously- started to make my first one (well, I’ve made a lot of them but for me or for friends in the real world, not for internet friends) which will go to Miles in that country. I don’t want to release all the details because surprise […]
As I explained a few days ago, I received a mixtape from Miracle Mile Tapeheads user. Here goes my review of it: The cassette chosen was a SONY UX-S from ’94, which is indeed a very good tape. The music is from electronic genre. The whole tape is a one-track mix that suggest a world […]
Here’s my latest acquisition: a super-beautiful Technics RS-B965 in Champagne color. Its stock performance is nothing special, but what makes this particular one special is that it has been deeply upgraded by ANT Audio.

Miles quickly replied me and offered to send […]

I’m excited to share you a story of passion and bravery. Passion for cassettes, walkmans and music. Bravery for wanting to do something that he never did before: being a DJ but with cassettes and walkmans. That’s what my friend Lorenzo , which is now called ‘TJ Autoreverse’, (TJ as Tape Jockey) did. Considering that […]
After some request, I decided to make a video showing my entire deck collection. So I put all them together in the same table and connected most of the to the audio chain. From left to right and up to down, here are the decks: Pioneer CT-F1250 This deck was their top of the […]
I’ve never heard about Revox until a few years ago -say 2012- and it looked to me as very particular machines, with a design that is very different compared to the typical japanese decks. There is one Revox that caught my attention since a friend of me had one: John Lydle, a very nice and […]
