national RQ 505 reel
This fine machine will serve as your constant companion…
I guess this reel originally came with the tape recorder. Not a great advert for the RQ505′s sonic fidelity.
Thrill to the sound of ‘Japanese folk songs played in a modern jazz style’. I love all that racket, happily obliterated in tape growl and splutter.
Sculpture use and endorse the National 401S ‘reverse-a-track’. Frequency response somewhere between 500-5000Hz. Pinch roller doesn’t grip the tape too effectively, so it’s good for physical manipulations.

tape loop 2
the original found tape isn’t altered except to cut out this section and stick the ends together. ok, that’s a pretty destructive alteration, I’m an anti-archivist. it’s 2 track tape played on a 1 track tape recorder. you get both sides of the tape,recorded off the radio sometime in the 1970s at a guess, playing forwards and backwards simultaneously in serendipitous superimposition.
this loop got dragged across floor at Roxy Bar & Screen, stood upon by many drunks in boots, severely crumpled. I like these kind of unplanned sonic adjustments.

to say it’s magnificent would be an understatement…
sinister reel-to-reel tape find
I used a different part of this tape reel in the sound riviera radio series a while back. It’s marvelous stuff. Stick around till the end, as the mystery professor’s final line is what really makes this special…
2 mono recordings playing simultaneously, one in each speaker.
If you’re interested, here’s the radio programme mentioned above: http://www.mixcloud.com/thesoundriviera/utter-tape/
