Eagle Chalice/Surfer Sam

Cassette transferred to CD. Sounds like simple early synths and drum machines treated with analog effects. Kinda 80’s synth rock feel. Nice stuff made nicer because of the natural low fi quality that cassette instills. Cool stuff, all instrumental. Short, radio friendly tracks mostly. Has an old sound but I believe this is new stuff out of St Petersburg, Florida. A testament as to the nice affect that cassette tape instills. Fans of old Residents, Cabaret Voltaire, Throbbing Gristle, Orange Cake Mix.
