Notes:
This is #12 of the Stonecutter Archives. I was lucky enough to head to Stonecutter’s home in NY in April of 2017 where I met up to talk shop and go through some of his tapes. I took a boatload of tapes home to transfer and post here to DIME. My intention was to get through these all pretty quickly. Well… Life gets in the way and other things to where these have sat on my hard drive for almost 3 years. Now, there is no excuse while my schooling is on hold for the foreseeable future. I’ve got a bunch of tapes to post here and I hope these tapes will help someone out during this time just enjoy some good music. Stay safe everyone.

This is one of the tapes I was able to grab. This comes from a first gen cassette and the recording is good! This also includes the soundcheck from earlier in the day. The tape flip during Your Funeral is pretty apparent. The quality goes from good to fair after the flip. Also, during both tape flips, I think they forgot where they stopped the tapes because there was the same songs on the other side. So I had to edit all of that out as well. These are tapes from James but whatever he copied these tapes with the heads were either dirty or of poor quality. A lot of hiss on this one that I was not able to remove. When I say remove, it’s usually just a hint of noise reduction via spectral profile and removing of the low noise floor. If it takes any part of the music, I tend to not do the process at all. Which is heard in this tape.

Thanks to Stonecutter for allowing me to take a few of these tapes to transfer and share to all. It has been fun working on these tapes for everyone to enjoy. I promise more are on the way.

Also, I am looking for any Nine Inch Nails recordings that are not on the NIN Live archive over at ninlive.com. If anyone can help me out finding new sources, I would love to have them. Especially some European shows. Thank you.
