“ IN THE SHADE OF THE STRING ” by EMACS (Elise Macmillan)

Violinist and musician Elise Macmillan moved from the US to Norway in 2015 to play Hardingfele in Telemark. She currently makes music as EMACS. Her music has been presented by NyMusikk in Bergen, IRL, Brooklyn NY, Kafé Hærverk, Oslo, and EMS in Stockholm.

“In the Shade of the String” is a song cycle by Elise mixed in her mom's car stereo and released on endless loop cassette.

Get this tape at Breton Cassette bandcamp- I warmly recommend it
Thank you to Elise for making lovely music, for working with Breton and becoming a good friend:) ❤

Go to Bretoncassette.com and see the lovely video Fatou Åsbakk has made for “in the shade of the string”

Special endless-loop cassettes were made for continued and repeated recording of commercial messages inside department stores, elevators, background music, and telephone answering machines. These are meant to travel in one direction only and on cassette decks with a single captsan/pinch roller drive mechanism. They will also not function correctly when used in decks with auto-reverse capability. As with all tape loops, take care with your tape player. Cleaning the tape heads and pinch rollers can help prevent the machines from eating cassettes.
