Anytime you here a song fade in, that was a fun trick I learned to do with my very first stereo. I’d switch it to AUX, start recording, then switch back to FM (or cassette if I was making a copy). It would make the audio fade in. I was like 9 when I figured that out 😀

Anyway, most of this tape is a compilation I put together with my mad skillz. I would usually play these when I played basketball in the backyard with my neighbors (because nothing says bball like Always or Pandora’s Box, right?

If you haven’t noticed, I REALLY liked Always. Couldn’t get enough of it. Especially in 1994. Especially the Microbots Trance Dance Mix. When you’re 13 and your favorite group comes out with a masterpiece like Always…. Ahhhh life was good.
