Between August 2018 and October 2019, I made a series of 7 rural DJ sets celebrating Blean Woods Nature Reserve. When each Forest Tape was completed, 7 copies were hid in the woods for people to find. These packages contained the forest tape on disc and a letter with a dedicated email address. These letters were signed with a symbol, not a name. Anonymity allows us to be more honest with strangers.
Tape #1, #4 and #7 are unavailable, either because I don’t think they’re good enough, or because they’re too personal for me to share. Consider them lost or “taped-over” like old Dr Who episodes. The tracklists, and artwork have also been lost. However, the remaining tapes of Autumn, Spring, Summer and Nighttime are here. The Nighttime one is my favourite. Please enjoy.
Tape #1: Anybody There? (unavailable)
Tape #2: Fading Autumn Glow
Tape #3: A Harsh Winter (unavailable)
Tape #4: The Rites of Spring
Tape #5: 30 Hours In Summer
Tape #6: Under The Moon
Tape #7: Gone Tomorrow (unavailable)
And that’s it.
