John Reidar Holmes

The JRH RANDOM MIXTAPE is for the true cassette enthusiast. Inspired by the mixtapes people used to make for each other when cassettes were in their hey-day. The RANDOM part; write to me if you want a different selection of tracks on the cassette. The digital download comes as is but if you want you own random selection email me, contact me in the app etc. and I'll make your own custom mixtape for you. The tapes are dubbed at home on RTM C90 cassettes using a Denon cassette deck from the 90s. Included is also a coaster, plectrum and some cards to hand out to friends. All items are signed on the back.
