Dabs Out Cassette Podcast, episode number 154.
I am Mike. I'm Joe. Where's Dave dave oh there's dave hey dave where's david where's david there's davey boy there is joe joe did you say who you were yet i did i said a second
oh um and we are all here i'm looking at you boys on my computer screen i've never seen anything
like it before i built it's crazy we are just having such a fun time with this future we are all here. I'm looking at you boys on my computer screen. I've never seen anything like it before. It's crazy.
We are just having such a fun time with this future.
We are just having a great time.
And I don't want you to think that we can just do it like this every time now.
You still.
I like it.
I like it better.
No,
we can't,
we can't do it like this every time because I,
it's.
Why not?
It saves gas.
Yeah,
but I think the tabs,
that was more of a tactile thing for me like like the recording and the publishing of it is an afterthought it's
rubbing on joe's shoulder like just you know feeling up on dave's like shoulders or something
more of mainly a shoulder smell too it's mainly the smell oh it's kind of like an oreo cookie
okay so either way we are are here. Whole new setup.
Got this whole system down.
We have the ability, you're not going to believe this,
to take phone calls now.
Can you believe it?
I told a couple people to call.
I don't know if they're going to.
I did.
Why did we wait this long to start doing calls?
I don't know.
I feel like we tried before and no one called.
We couldn't figure out the system before or something.
I think there was a technology. At one point, we had but i don't i don't think it worked out so well
um we might still be paying for it i'm not really sure oh what's that every 10 years or yeah i think
it's a dollar every 10 years so i'm not that worried about what is that it was like a thing
that they sold where you would like Magic Jack, you plug a...
Your bottles,
it's invisible.
Oh yeah, I love your green
screen you got here, Joby. It's so fancy.
Joby, you're in space
now? Yep.
You guys gotta stop playing with these fucking backgrounds.
You
gotta stop.
I love Day's Pizza background, though. though it's nice now i might do one
it's fun it is it looks fun dave i heard i hear you got attacked by a dog yeah man
who let the dogs out who did leave the dogs out what happened man joe he showed me the the cut
earlier it's in a very like sexual spot oh i like that like he had to get yeah i want to say it
get ready to hit print screen when he does this i can screenshot all right i'm fine with that too
whatever makes you comfortable i'm down i'm down for whatever makes you feel good
you can't really see with the pizza background.
I don't see anything.
I just see Mike. How do I switch to Dave?
You haven't had Dave the whole time?
Gallery view, man.
I see him every once in a while.
Oh, do I add that?
You go to gallery view.
Oh, I see it.
Did you clean that?
Yeah, a couple times.
Alright. That was good. oh did you clean that yeah a couple times all right
oh that was good that sounded good that's it you can hear my zipper yeah it was like
very very clean i will be sampling that good zipper it was very nice. Alright, you fellas want to play some... Do you have anything to say about this dog attack?
Oh, yeah.
It sucked.
That was...
Did you kill it?
You better kill it.
You gotta put it down
when a dog attacks.
What do you got, Hacksaw Jim Duggan behind you now?
You gotta stop, man.
I'm feeling patriotic.
You are.
So you boys want to play some tapes?
Yeah, let's do it.
Yeah, I got two things.
Mine go together, so mine are going to be in a block.
I know something you don't know.
I know something...
Oh, wait, you think yours go together too?
Because I feel like there's also a link between both of you.
Stop blocking with the backgrounds.
Stop. too because i feel like there's also a link between both of you stop fucking with the background stop my god you gotta stop messing with the background it's so distracting right it's like when we first discovered doing sound clips yeah exactly you don't think like whenever
i'm trying to talk about a tape and all you do is dumb sound clips that that's not distracting
it's not distracting.
It's not fair because I have this whole setup in front of me.
I've got to record everything.
I've got to handle the calls.
I've got to handle everything.
And now we're having fun.
It's really not that fair.
Well, then you guys play some tapes.
I can play a couple tapes real quick if you want.
Get into it, Dave.
Do it, Dave.
Where's David?
David around someplace? What do you got? It's been so you want. Get into it, Dave. Do it, Dave. What is David? David around someplace?
What do you got? It's been so long since you played a tape, Dave.
It has been a while, yeah. I miss you boys so much.
I miss you boys passing me tapes.
Well, here you go.
Oh, that drinking sound.
It's so weird how you can't see the bottle.
Yeah, you got to turn off the virtual background.
You got to turn off Hacksaw Chin Duggan.
I can't see anything.
It's like you're holding a 2x4 when you hold it out. It just blends into the bottle. Yeah, you gotta turn off the virtual background. You gotta turn off Hacksaw Chin Duggan. I can't see anything. It's like you're holding a 2x4 when you hold it out.
It just blends into the background.
Alright, I'm
gonna play this
Sonae tape.
I think that's how you say it.
S-O-N-A-E.
S-O-N-A-E.
It came out on BitFalix.
Wait, for real?
This is the thing I know.
This is something I know.
That's not UK anymore, right?
I'm playing two tapes on that label too, Dave.
It's a whole new thing now.
Yeah.
Would you guys want to just play the first block together?
Do we play these all together then, Jeff?
Yeah.
Do a little Bitphalan violence block then, mate.
Do a little block of the old bit of violence, Dave.
Now I don't know how to turn virtual background off.
Oh, none.
Getting from there to here.
All right, Dave.
So what are you playing?
It's Asami.
Who is Asami?
Asami.
Asami?
Asami.
Asami? Hold on.
Oh, man, now I got too many windows open.
This is hard.
I don't want to laugh because this is the hardest thing I've ever done.
I think they're from Cologne.
What, the smelly stuff that you smell?
What a coincidence.
My mom's from perfume
i still got it even over the internet i still i still make you boys laugh
thousands of miles away you could be right now i'm still cracking you up and i love it
music for people who shave their heads that's the name of the tape right
yeah sonia sonia goodler i believe is the name of the tape, right? Yeah. Sonia Goodler,
I believe, is the person who does
this project. Hold it up.
I want to see it.
Oh, you want to see the tape?
Didn't I send you a picture?
Yeah, but I want to see you holding it. That's what I'm used to
when I do it.
There's an image of it, so you gotta read it.
Hold up a mirror. No, it's fine for me.
Oh, it's fine for you?
Yeah, I can see it fine. It's beautiful. Okay, it's a mirror for me.'s fine for you oh yeah yeah i can see it fine
it's beautiful okay it's a mirror for me you're holding too close dave back it up
it's like it's touching my nose there you go can you read that i can't read it no no yeah
it'll have to be good it's i get the idea and i feel like if people listen to me just go okay
yeah yeah yeah and then joe goes uh-huh i feel like that's listen to me just go, okay, yeah, yeah, yeah. And then Joe goes, uh-huh, uh-huh.
I feel like that's probably enough.
That's probably more than enough for a podcast.
You see the smoky shell?
Actually, I don't.
I can't see that. Everything's a glare.
Again, you're holding too close.
We should have practiced this.
What's the case again?
Is it a regular Norelco case or is it like a little again? Is it a regular Norelco case, or is it like a little cardboard?
It's a regular Norelco, but it's got this paper card around it.
Oh, that's I see.
All right, cool.
Yeah, so this is like a tape of remixes.
A tape of all remixes?
It's all remixes by Sone.

I think they updated it for the pandemic, and now it's... It's not an object
though. Beans is not an object.
You're telling me beans is not an object?
A can of beans is.
That's what I obviously
meant, Dave. I obviously meant a can of
beans.
I like the sticker
on the shell. Oh, that's
tight. Yeah. That's very nice.
Is there an imprinting next?
Right there.
I'll be.
I don't think I've ever seen a cassette with a sticker and imprinting.
No.

how you guys doing hunkered down man yeah i'm doing all right. Dave got attacked by a dog.
A vicious dog.
I did get attacked by a dog.
A vicious dog.
Vicious dogs have been attacking Dave.
I'm trying to get him to give me a blood sample so I can figure out why.
I can figure out why he's being attacked so often.
Are you okay, Dave?
Jesus Christ.
Yeah.
The reason why I keep
getting attacked is because I have little dog treats
in my blood. In your
blood? That's what I
suspected. That's what I
suspected. And that's why I wanted...
He's got his blood in bits in there.
He's got... His blood is extra chunky.
Oh, God.
That sounds awful.
Well, Harvey, we were... That means that I can't get COVID.
No, but he's actually been brewing.
Dave's been home brewing COVIDs, and he's up to about 24, I think.
I keep telling him.
You shouldn't be doing that, Dave.
I got the next four on deck.
Do you want to preview anything, big guy?
20, 21, 22, and 23.
If I'm being honest, I can't really hear Dave.
He sounds like he's underwater.
He is underwater, actually.
That's part of his treatment I got him on,
to get these goddamn biscuits out of his blood.
It's all very technical.
A lot of people
will ask me, they'll say, you have such a great
mind for this kind of stuff. You're so natural at it.
Maybe I should be
doing that instead of the
podcast.
Where's David?
So Harvey.
I was going to say, Harvey,
we're about to go into
some tapes here. Did you want to hang out with us or do you got something you want to say Harvey we're about to go into some tapes here
did you want to hang out with us
or you got something you want to say

michael how do you think you say this f-a-k-e-s-c-h fox
but you didn't finish with the the opiate tape saying that that was Thomas Nack.
I'm sorry, right.
Saying it was a 20-year anniversary, the whole ordeal.
I know, but this one's the same deal.
You're kidding me.
They're both released in 1999 originally.
What a great year.
The year was 1999.
Okay, and then this one's also a 20-year reunion of the Michael J. Fox one?
Also a 20-year on the same label, Bit Phalanx.
But both of these were released on different labels in 1999.
Fucking crazy, man.
Does that make sense to you?
You guys are just putting a puzzle together, man.
Just like a mind.
This one's a double tape.
It looks very cool.
Very cool. Very legal. It's nice in a little sleeve it looks very nice very 90s glitch electronic
uh design oh the glitch that yeah i mean matrix neo the whole yeah yeah. Neo, computers. I subscribe to that whole theory of thought.
That's like a CD drive.
Yeah, digital.
Are the shells red or blue?
Oh, let's see.
That's a good question, Harvey.
Maybe you should be on this podcast.
Damn, are the shells red or blue?
It's a black tape.
It's black.
Oh, shit.
I'm sorry.
You got it wrong.
You know what, Harvey?
Just because of that, Harvey.

Well, what do you want, Sal?
What do you want?
What are you calling for?
What do we do now? Is there a game or something?
Yeah, we gotta figure out what to do with the callers.
Well, I normally just ask them
what tapes they want me to play.
I don't really know. I don't really know what to do with the callers except for R just ask them what tapes they want me to play. I don't really know.
I don't really know what to do with the callers except for Rasm.
But Sal's not giving me much here.
He just said he ate dinner.
I'm going to cut this entire thing out.
What have you been doing, Sal?
Working.
Oh, you start to work?
What a loser.
What a loser. Sorry. What what an absolute loser i know how i want to know how science is essential right now how science makes any money um well the
government already gave us our money so oh yeah we got it until next time maybe they'll stop funding

Really good science.
Oh, interesting.

What we don't know is we're actually talking to a Sal robot right now that he made.
That he made?
Oh, my God.
Is this Salbot 5000 again?
It's pretty convincing.
Sal, how come we've asked you to come down to be on Tabs Out before and you always say no?
Because I didn't feel like it.
Okay.
Got him in the hot seat.
Well, guess what, buddy?
He's gone.

buddy do i win and he's gone yes and i think what i say every time is and he's gone
all right what was i playing i was playing i was playing playing Dog Lady Island on a tape on Alien Passengers.
I think it's called
Dolor Aria.
Alien Passengers number 39.
Michael Colino's label
and his project.
Out of Michigan. Very cold place.
These are some very cold, sparse...
He's got the violin.
He's one of these guys who's got the violin but no training yet
oh this isn't classical music no maybe he hasn't figured out how to hold it yet
just got it just got it it's brand it's the kind of thing where the violin is both brand new and
extremely extremely old has had it for a long time but still maybe is kind of like figuring it all out.
Dave, stop changing the background.
What is that?
Little quesadillas?
Pizza?
Did you download like a whole pack of them?
Oh yeah, I got the stock photos pizza package.
Still has watermarks though.
All of the alien passenger tapes are like printed on transparencies oh it's really good printing for like you often you don't get a good
uh a good print on it that's not vellum paper i'm sorry i'm sorry i said transparency on vellum
paper yeah jeez you fucking vellum paper yeah fucking hell
I'm gonna cut that out
I'm gonna cut out
everything up until this point
so I'm gonna play the
dog lady island tape because dogs keep
attacking Dave
and until he
comes to me for help they will continue to do so
are we playing anything else
this block?
Yeah, you want to play something?
I got this
wetback mani tape.
A wetback mani tape, yes.
On Death by Mark.
Joe, enough with the video feedback.
Hold on, let me change
the background so you can see it better.
Okay, there you go.
Oh yeah, I know this one. I know this one very well.
That is his cute little cover.
Little cartoon drawing of Manny there.
It's cute.
I believe he's...
I believe there is a dead ice agent on the ground.
I believe there is there a Klansman in the tree being,
being stabbed,
maybe something going through his chest or was that from something else?
It was from something else related to this project.
Okay.
I've seen that before.
Maybe it's an alternate cover for this for like a different format or
something.
I saw that too, but it's not on the jay card
Mandy Sanchez
yeah
Joe did you just fall down
no I just threw something out
oh same thing
so I'm gonna play a cut off this tape
track called
Fuck Ice 2.
Oh yeah, I use that. Fuck Ice?
I like part 2
though.
When you're really getting it going and things are
heating up, I gotta get my fuck ice.
Cut it out?
Cut that one out?
You know what? I don't even know who put this out.
I do. I know.
I can't believe you. Ding, ding, ding, ding, ding.
Survey says...
You got it right.
Death by Mark did put this out.
It came out like a few months ago, right?
Yes, this is recent.
Recent. It was in the before times.
In the before times.
But still recent, yeah.
Are you still getting tapes in the mail? You know what? Jesus Christ, man. I am still getting tapes in the before times that's still recent yeah are you still getting taped in the mail you know what jesus christ man i am still getting tapes in the mail and like are you letting
them are you like leaving them on your porch for a day or two no i you know i bring them in i put
them in a box and then i wash my hands and then i don't touch them for a few days okay well same
difference but um i which is probably kind of crazy but whatever whatever. Yeah, but it's better to be a little bit crazy right now.
I am surprised about the amount of tapes people are still sending.
I'm surprised it hasn't slowed down at all.
Yeah, you guys don't have to send stuff right now.
Send them to Dave, though, instead of me.
People's music needs to be heard.
Yeah, Dave, what's wrong with with you and we're not switching to digital
we're doing tapes only hold on i just got a gift from zoom i think this meeting has been upgraded
by the host and now includes what it says a gift from zoom running out of time we've removed the
40 minute time limit on your group meeting oh okay, so your credit card just got charged.
Yeah, probably.
Probably.
We should say that the Dog Lady Island tape is from a few years ago,
and the Death Bomb Arc tape came out, like we said.
I received it in the before times.
But everybody else is doing wrong.
Everybody else stopped.
Oh, you know what?
You know what's crazy?
And Dave, you're going to flip your lid over this.
You're going to freak out.
In these uncertain times, when you're constantly wondering what is normal and what can you expect to happen, we get a fucking package in the mail.
It's Astral Spirits tapes. and look at them they're not they're
not blue dave sit down sit down sit down sit down i don't want you to sit down
so i wanted to discuss my cake it's cyan yeah it's something look at that over there that's
my astral spirit slot i see i see and i and it's something it's called like astral additions but
what were all the other ones those weren't astral additions i feel what are you talking about i don't
know what's how i don't know what to believe i don't know what to believe. I don't know what to think. In these uncertain times when you don't know
what day to day,

Don't tell me they changed the font too.
I might have to look again.

is it cooper black in an outline no that looks like it still might be cooper black no it's not
i can't really tell no it's not

It's going to get worse
I go to the beer store

all right what do you guys know about doom trip records i think i have a comp or two
i have a couple comps of theirs yeah yeah doom trip records kind of like a um
i think a lot of people might say a scarier hasu Mountain would be a fair way would be a fair way to
Is that what a lot of people would say?
I'm thinking if you really got out there
in the streets and you started asking people about it
I'll cut that out too
I think people would start
would be saying they are like
a too scary
too mean
but too scary Hasu mountain um and they
yeah they put out those doom well i won't get too much into it because maybe maybe i gotta maybe i
talked to somebody from doom trip records maybe i already did that maybe i'll maybe maybe i played
a mooks tape any percent on doom triprip Records. Maybe I played that and talked to somebody.
And maybe we'll play that right now.
Oh, alright. That sounds good.
You think we should do that?
And then, are you guys...
You guys want to stick around?
No, I'm done.
Yeah, I think I'm done.
Alright, play us Doomtrip and I'm going to bed.
Alright, fellas.
Hello. Hello.
Hello.
How you doing out there?
I'm doing, um, I'm doing, actually, I'm doing pretty good.
Yeah, it's, um, you know, it is what it is.
How about you?
It really is.
Yeah.
If you were ever going to define something as what it is, I believe right now, this is what it is.
And there's no, there's no arguing that.
You know, that was interesting.
I mean, you have a lot of large groups of different types of people, some who are going full bunker mentality and hoarding and going crazy.
And then you have people who it still hasn't really hit them that this is even a real thing.
And they, you know, think it's just a big joke and it will be a big deal if they get it.
And within my friends and family, there are many people on both sides.
And I'm just kind of in the middle going, you know, you're both kind of wrong. And
there's a nice middle ground that you can find where you just, uh, do your best and prepare
however you can. And, you know, that's all we can really do. So are you interacting that, uh,
are you getting an earful? Um, not exactly. I mean, on the phone and, you know, online, obviously, yes.
My work is still open, so I do interact with some coworkers there.
We are keeping our distances and everything.
And for the most part, things are okay there.
And I'm obviously glad to still have a job.
But, yeah, it's just, it's funny to see people's perception of the entire situation kind of slowly change over
time as more information comes out but yeah hell of a time and you know mad uh respect to you and
your crew for still you know maintaining the podcast and doing it well you know
well you know many people have wrote to me personally and said that I'm the only thing keeping them going, getting them through this.
So, I mean, I'm not going to.
But how is that different than any other week, right?
I mean, a lot of these emails are from months ago.
A lot of them.
I mean, I'm not opening all my mail, all my fans.
A lot of them are from a while ago and just like pre a lot of them actually were like
if a virus ever if a pandemic ever breaks out i know you'll be the one person i can go to i'm
turning to you i'm turning to you and i just thought like wow like i didn't even i didn't
even put it together until right now actually we we live in a world where there are so many profits
and um this must have been been I am the strongest man
the tiny mixtapes era
because as we all know very well
tiny mixtapes
goes on hiatus
suddenly this is the world we're living in
some people might call that a coincidence
I don't, no fuck that
there's no way
it's kind of like
you know how there's these
bacteria that live in the polar ice caps There's no way. I think there's a connection there. It's kind of like, you know, like, how there's these, like,
bacteria that live in, like, the polar ice caps that, like,
when we finally finish melting them, they'll, like, release and probably kill us all.
You've got to wonder if, like, Tiny Mixtapes had, like,
some sort of, like, power.
It was like, yeah.
I mean, I've written many books on this and i really do think
that when they stop yes yes good and i do think that when when they stopped i think maybe it
unleashed the song well i mean i don't think they did it intentionally i just think maybe
they didn't realize that they were the only thing keeping this world balanced you're not a doctor
leave your opinions to yourself um Did you want to introduce yourself?
Who the hell is that?
I guess, I mean, if you feel like it, if you feel that's relevant.
We don't have to. I mean, I wouldn't say it's relevant. I think the term we're using now
is essential. Is it essential or not? We have to constantly be deciding if something is
essential or not.
Many of our labels releases are considered essential so I suppose I will.
My name is Zach.
Zach Emerson. Sometimes people
call me Z and that's just fine.
I run Doom Trip
Records out of Los Angeles.
Very nice.
You can't hear I'm playing sound clips so this is all
very funny because there's clapping when there's not
really clapping. I can't
even imagine
how funny it is but i'm you on a soundboard yeah but i'm also like i'm doing i'm doing everything
i'm trying to get used to doing everything alone i used to think i used to sit there and stare at
dave and say that motherfucker's not doing anything over there but now that i'm on his
side there are so many like i got, there's smoke out of the machine.
There's, like, I'm hitting buttons, and I don't know what's going on.
You know, in all seriousness, I have always wished that there was more actual footage,
either video or photographs from inside those recording sessions,
if only to see the looks on your faces
while all of this is happening.
I would love to.
Due to a pending lawsuit,
Dave cannot be filmed at this time.
He is not legally allowed to capture a videotape.
Ah.
Ah.
And then many people laugh,
and that's why I get the letters.
So, Zach, do you want to take a guess
on what tape we're listening to right now
that you can't hear but it's being played?
And a real label head, a real label jockey would know.
They would know.
A real label aficionado, someone who loved their shit,
would probably instinctually know what I was playing.
So you're just asking me to guess out of every tape that's been released ever?
No, just on your label.
Oh, on our label?
Oh, I thought you just meant in general.
Jesus Christ.
I don't think you're Houdini.
I mean, this is just Doom Trip.
I have to think of what I've actually sent you.
I don't know, maybe Doom Mix 3?
I don't think we got Doom Mix 3 yet.
Yeah, the third one?
Yeah, you got a lot.
You played a couple of tracks from it.
Are you sure?
I thought that didn't come out until April.
No, no, that's 4.
4 is coming up.
Oh, so you're up to...
Oh, you see, I did the counting wrong.
Hold on, let me play a funny number on the soundboard.
3.
And I did 1.
Okay, so I have here...
I'm playing actually
the mux uh any percent tape oh god i fucking love that tape that's very good the guy's he's crazy
this maxwell allison he's he's crazy with these things with these synthesizers and such i don't
know how he does it apparently he hits these i guess they're called keys on something called
the synth and these sounds just come together.
No one knows how it happened.
He lists all the synths inside the J card.
Yeah, I mean...
But has any of that been verified?
I was going to say, do you believe everything you read?
I mean, who's fact-checking here?
I feel like you should go to a notary public
and get these lists notarized
if you're going to send
me a j card that list like yeah because also i'm not going through the whole tape and like
making like a a google sheet out of serial numbers we need to make sure if he does have
these things that they're not stolen that's that's a good fucking point man he could have stolen this
you know i've i've read conspiracy theories that he's actually 100% digital.
It's just Ableton sample packs, you know.
I've written a bunch of those.
I've written a bunch of those.
So I'm glad somebody's checking them out.
Yeah, so I'm glad somebody's looking at them.
That was you.
That was me.
No, but let me ask you on that 80% tape.
Have you listened to it before or is this your first time?
No, I've listened to it.
This came out.
Yeah, of course I listened to it. Of course I listened to all my tapes what are you talking about i'm wondering i'm wondering if there's a track or two on there
that stands out to you and for what you're into in the life we live you you're putting me on the
spot now i thought i was interviewing you i'm turning the mic around on you oh my god i'm so
flattered please don't ask me questions.
Please don't put me on the spot.
Please just know that I know so much
about all of these tapes.
As long as you're enjoying it, that's all that matters.
I am enjoying it very much.
I'm going to stop it though and put in one of these.
I am going to put in a Doom Trip comp.
Okay.
What is this? What are you putting these out once a year, right? in a Doom Trip comp. Okay. You put, what is this?
What are you putting these out once a year, right?
Once a year, yeah.
We try to time it around the anniversary of our first release,
kind of celebrating the annual cycle.
Hold on.
I want to, at the same time, we'll say one, two, three,
and then both you and I will say when we think the anniversary of the label is.
Oh, okay.
All right, ready?
One, two, three.
I have no clue.
Okay.
I love it.
April 6th.
Wait, earlier you said April, but you have some clue.
You knew the month at least.
When did I say April?
Literally when we were talking about which tape,
you asked me which tape was on,
and I said, is it Dimex 3?
And you said, that's not out until April.
So you just, you played yourself just now.
What are you talking about?
I can edit that out.
What are you talking about?
You sound like a fool.
You sound like a marijuana addict.
What are you talking about?
What kind of drugs do you take?
So here's what I'm holding right now. I got volume one and volume three. Which tape
do you want me to put on and what side?
Well, um...
I would say
volume three.
You said what?
Volume three, side A.
Volume three. So I'm going to take out
the tape. I'm going to take out volume
three. I'm going to put it in side. So I'm going to take out the tape. I'm going to take out volume 3.
I'm going to put it inside A.
I'm going to press play.
And when it comes in, you're not going to hear it.
Remember that.
You're not going to hear it.
I know how it goes.
But I want you to tell me, I want you to describe what's being played.
Is it on yet?
Hold on.
Give me one second.
All right, go ahead.
I can tell you right now, once the music actually starts,
we're going to get Earth Eater, Concealer.
Well, how do you know that?
How do you know it's rewound all the way?
Oh, my God. You don't know where
in the tape it is.
How do I know that there isn't a piece
of styrofoam stuck
on the reels and what you're
listening to is going to end up sounding like
music concrete? Like, how do you know
I don't have like a heavy effect
on this channel right now?
Well, I would be disappointed
in you if you didn't.
What if I did? What if I threw it all the way up?
That was probably going to sound so bad.
I'm not going to do it,
but it's the weird effect that I put on my voice
to make it sound funny.
Oh, well...
You just go ahead and describe
what we're listening to.
Okay, well... I mean, the opening lyrics,
somebody once told me the world is going to roll me.
Yeah, so far you're right.
I ate the darkest tool in the shed.
Yeah, so far you got it.
Keep going, Zach.
What you've done to it, though, I don't know.
Keep going.
Is the finger and the thumb in the shape of an L?
I have no way of knowing that with what you're doing
because I can't hear it right now.
Oh, Jesus Christ.
No, you're not even close.
I'll tell you what happened.
It's do mix three.
It's side B, though.
Well, that's not because I flipped it over.
Because A was all the way at the end,
so I had to flip it over.
Well, you got me, I guess.
You know, I'm constantly getting people,
and you're just another victim in my sick, sick game, my friend.
Prank.
You guys, with your pranks, I mean,
I tried to prank you one time with a meme that got posted by Nzain Johnny
about leaving shrink wrap on the tapes that you send you.
You tried to prank me
I tried and uh I believe it was our friend Matthew Sage from patient sounds who commented
thine troll do not like to be trolled you well that first of all that's very true
but like but yeah don't prank me I can dish it out i'm not taking it are you kidding me i love
when people are like they think they're like burning on me because they're like oh you can
dish it out but you can't take it it's like yeah no shit no shit i can't dish it i can't take it
i never said i was going to take it we should also bring up recently I posted basically my favorite Tabs Out tweet of all time,
which was when Robert posted about how he was bullied into not putting shrink wrap on his tapes
and all the tapes arrived full of styrofoam bits.
And you just quote tweeted him with the word prank with like five exclamation points.
Well, it was a prank.
I don't know. I don't know what it is about that tweet.
Just the fact that one word
and that you're just screaming it
it just it hits so many
different targets for me so
very very good work there
I mean
you know when I think
when me and my team work on these tweets
yeah
you know
I got Biden's people
helping me out I got his social media team helping me out. The recent one of sitting on your hand until it's numb, turning some knobs.
So it feels like you're collabing with someone. We needed that.
Well, that's that's true. I think people. Yeah. People need to be doing that right now hey so what's so what do you what no i was gonna say right now i can't
believe i can't believe you keep talking over me the host of the show wait that's you do i need to
me wait a minute which podcast is this so many so many people are starting podcasts now i'm not
actually sure if this one is mine this could be yours okay okay now so go ahead uh um what's that gonna say oh yeah are so are you still you said earlier
april 10th for the new do mix is that are you still doing that because the the tape slow down
is occurring because of the virus the virus is slowing the virus has reached cassette tapes and
is slowing them down now it's true so um kind of two things on that one is that we actually already do have the doom
mix tapes they arrived safely and a little bit before all of this started happening hold on is
this is this breaking news is this breaking news Wait.
Breaking news.
Breaking news.
Can you send me that?
Can you send me that?
Shut up, please.
Excuse me.
Excuse me.
Excuse me.
Can you wait?
Breaking news.
I have here Zach from Doom Trip Records.
There was many concerns about where Doom Mix Volume 4, if it was going to come out on time, if it was going to be delayed.
A lot of people were wondering,
Zach, can you confirm
the rumors that
we've heard here today, that
you actually do have the tapes on hand?
God bless you
for getting through whatever that was just now.
That was great.
Yes, sir. I can confirm.
However, and this is the real breaking
news you weren't even ready for this oh my god we are not shit we are not shipping at this time for
the safety of ourselves and for others until more information on this shit comes out so yeah i think
that's a smart move yeah we've contacted all the buyers um if you've ordered to mix tape those
people will be in touch we got a little goodie of thank you for waiting.
Everyone's been very understanding.
And most people are like, you know, I agree.
Yeah, let's hold off on that.
You know what I've been doing is going to the post office
and taking the mail that goes to other people and just say, I'll take this.
Just you don't have to worry about it.
That's just a good idea.
I'll bury this.
Okay.
I mean, you're walking your life
you're living your journey and you know
I think that's what we all love about you
I do I think there's yeah
I think so
so Zach do you have any closing words
any closing remarks the future of
Doomtrip beyond
Doomtrip colon beyond the virus
beyond the virus what will beyond the virus yeah
I mean yeah we we got a lot of good shit coming up I think a couple of the artists who want to
kind of delay things a little bit just until everyone's lives are a little bit more stable
but um once we are up and running again you're going to get a whole grip of tape from us and
uh all jokes aside we really do appreciate what you all do.
I've found more good music from your podcast than any other podcast I can think of.
How many podcasts can you think of?
How many podcasts can you think of?
Oh, my God.
At least 420 off the top of my head.
Oh, my God.
And with a funny number, we end it.
Zach, thank you so much for talking to us and thanks for all the many cassette
tapes and then the many doom trip compilations to remind us that April 6th
is,
is,
is doom trip day.
Great stuff.
Thanks for not trolling me too hard.
Take care.
Stay healthy.
You do the same,
man.
Talk to you later.
All right.
Later. You do the same, man. Talk to you later. All right, later. Thank you. I'm sorry. Oh, my God. so so Oh, my God. Thank you.
