Ep 293Iowa Basement Tapes #293 03-14-2024 Fun With Electronics!

Night Listeners -We are trying something different tonight and everything is electronic. I don't know if this was the right move or not but in true IBT fashion we have a pro-produced slick tracks mixed with the best of the bedroom electronic noise projects. One note I want to make is the inclusion of both EHI and Deerslayer. EHI was a Des Moines based noise project by Brian Noring who also started the FDR Tape label. Deerslayer was the basement experimental solo act of Adam Groves of The PeePees, Brazil, and Wheel and the Fence. Both of these are probably the most elusive of everything I will play.
