Thanks for joining us for Episode 4 of the Cosmic Tape Music Club monthly Podcast!

He was known for his pioneering experimental composition using magnetic tape and wire recorders when the mediums were still in their infancy, for re-recording a sound and processing it through many generations of degradation and enhancement, playing recordings back at various speeds and re-recording them rendering out of this world textures and much much more!
