Mixcloud Collaborations Part 5: JB meets Marius G.Mihalache by Sounds By Jb on Mixcloud

The beauty of this collaboration with Jan was to finding some moments that really meant something for us. I remembered my first scare during a movie. The first love. Adolescence. One of the films for which I have skipping from school. The first popcorn at a series B movie. But also the first film composers that sparked my interest in this field. First meeting with the music of Vangelis, Michel Jarre, Francis Lai, Vladimir Cosma, Mancini, Morricone, or extraordinary meeting with the art of Kurt Weill. And now with JB.
So...JB...Thank you so much for this idea of collaboration!

JB, or Jan Boerlage, is a very kind person from Netherlands. I followed his work for a long time... but... apart of all these he began writing music at age 11 and in the same time he started DJ-ing and be active in this area for an extended period. After his journey through life took a small detour. like of mine also, he came back, and now his work can be found on Mixcloud.
I recommend it!

The End of Tapes Album

The End of Tapes Album by Marius G.Mihalache Michel on Mixcloud

I still have two tape recorders (magnetophones), and many magnetic tapes with music that I listened in the old days of '70 - '80. But always at the end of these magnetic tapes I record all sorts of things, small songs made by me, recordings with my band, or strange noises.
Here in the '70 the most common magnetic tapes they were ORWO (produced in DDR - Deutsche Demokratische Republik), AGFA and BASF.
I disbanded the erasing head of my magnetophone and make some overlay but with obvious loss in sound quality. It was fun in those years to use the standard speed 4,7/9,5/19 cm/s, to change the speed with my finger directly on the tape, or turn pieces of tape and stick them with gutter. Now I have recovered these tape ends and I mixed with other pieces done digitally in last years, or unfinished songs.
I found a recording with me at age 3 in which I repeat over and over with a very creepy voice "youuu're in a booox of doooolls' ... so...this was in my head when I mixed all.
