to me a beat tape is themed. It's an entity...as opposed to an instrumental album/compilation where the individual tracks are not necessarily connected...

I just copped a gang of BASF clear type 2 cassettes for a limited release of this current project I've got in the works. All this talk of beat tapes makes me want to put together a physical release instead of mp3s.

focused moments where you plan to string together instrumentals that most likely won't be used anywhere else. also as a place to put alternate versions of finished tracks so if anyone is following your music they can hear alternate takes of the same idea. also i think they need to be made within a short amount of time, so all the beats sound like a they come from a certain "time capsule"

Perfect definition...
