Bootleg cassette tape inserts

Postby abandcalledfrick » Fri Jan 13, 2023 8:02 am

I design cassette tapes for my own bands, so for fun, I thought I'd take a stab at designing one for an album that never got an official cassette release.

Here's one I did for Speak by Body English. What do you think?

Just thought I'd share, and maybe even take a request or two, if someone is interested.

What printer do you use to print the cover? Inkjet or laser?

I believe most commercial covers are printed in offset.

He never will. There are people on guitars 101 who have been waiting for him to upload an unofficial compilation of the police for years. It doesn't make sense to create thousands of accounts to request something when he can UPLOAD something (not STEAL links from others) at least once in his f*cking life. In this way, this parasite avoids bans and that we are blaming its actions.

I've seen the police thread. It's so funny. What they are saying is missing isn't even close and that is without the uncirculated demos - six versions of roxanne macca, six!

Let's not forget the entire world (with one single exception) is missing the extra 1986 studio track which had one play on radio and the january 1983 mixes of two songs from Synchronicity which again had one unannounced play on radio.

It's an HP inkjet printer. Nothing fancy.

That looks better than some private pressing 'professional' cassette inserts that I have seen. Nice job!

not sure how i could legally do that, but i'd definitely consider doing some one-offs for people who want an album on cassette.
