about

"The selections included date from between 1983 and 1990. They were produced through a variety of analog techniques, using a wide range of tools that included cheap hand-held cassette recorders and razor blades of varying sharpness. Because analog decay and random noise provide vital signs to the exhumed body of The Pleasure, no attempt has been made to digitally scrub, filter, de-bug, or purge the selected castaways; they circulate to you in the same "dirty" condition as they first aired" - Gregory Whitehead.
