  • 7.5 IPS 2-track 1/4" open-reel tape for PRO USE

    For real! Original studio artifact for insane analog people like me!! 10th anniversary special. I am not going to make very many of these.
    Professional use no-frills white-box product dubbed directly from the original master tape on privately owned Otari open reel machines. ATR Magnetics tape stock on one 7" reel. 2-track (half-track) recording, one direction only.
    This will sort of play on consumer quarter-track stereo machines, but with reduced output on the right side, the tracks don't quite align.

lyrics

Living in a dome you can’t leave well enough alone
If I have friends they must be ghosts so I can sleep here in my dome
Living in a cube you want a room with nicer views
You count the squares, you count the rectangles
THE MAN’S THERE IN YOUR CUBE!

It’s a cold stark semi-sphere!
It’s a hard place to call home!
(If your powers are mental / Your angst existential / It’s not accidental that you end up in your own dome)

LIFE, it seems, was never meant to be greater than an IMAGINARY NUMBER of COMPLEX FRIENDS
Nothing’s ever different in my DOME –
because the constant is the square of my PROBLEMS
times the reason why I’m LIVING IN A DOME

Living in a cone when you have problems of your own
The standing waves produce a tone that can be heard inside your cone

Living in a square you wish your friends weren’t really there
You check the sides
You check the corners
There’s circles in your square!!

It’s a harsh geometry
It’s a time-loop plot nightmare

The world’s REPETITIOUS!
I’m not superstitious
But my actions always send me BACK to this SQUARE
