Well, I did a harmonica instruction tape for Homespun tapes.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
So I use a tape recorder a lot to record ideas.
I had wanted a tape recorder since I was tiny. I thought it was a magic thing. I never got one until just before I went to art school.
I taught myself how to use a multi-track tape recorder, which was the first time I recorded myself.
I was messing around with the harmonica... but I was 13 before I got a real good note out of it.
I was using tape loops for dancers and dance production. I had very funky primitive equipment, in fact technology wasn't very good no matter how much money you had.
I grew up a hip-hop kid doing mix-tapes.
After years of begging, I got my parents to get me a little Craig tape recorder, a reel to reel. Then I started recording voices, or recording Jonathan Winters off television and stuff like that.
Well, I'm a tape-recording nut. I like to play my tapes.
I ain't never far away from a pencil and paper or a tape recorder.
I picked up a harmonica and taught myself.
