about

This was on a tape labeled “Cubby Creatures The First Four” and dated January 1998. The tape is the original 4-track cassette on which I recorded with my little Tascam Porta05 4-track machine the songs “I Have Ebola Now,” “Hey Mister,” “Don’t in the Middle,” and “Dolores Park Me.” (“Hey Mister” unfortunately has some problems which is why it is not included in volume 1. I thought I might be able to do something with it, but then I decided to hold off working on it till vol. 2, which I thought could include as many World of Tina songs as I can find.) Our original drummer Matt left the band in December 1997 but he must’ve agreed to play the drums one last time and let me record these songs which we had been rehearsing throughout 1997 (and ended up playing at our first show at Artist’s Television Access in December 1997). In November 2017 I transferred all the tracks from the “Cubby Creatures The First Four” tape to my computer and mixed them using Audacity software. I also added some effects. Since some of the instruments were bounced together onto the same track (guitar/bass and vocals/violin), it was not possible to do as much with the songs as I would’ve liked, but they all sound pretty cool in their own way. For “Dolores Park Me” I decided to add some distortion on the guitar because it just sounded right to me. There’s another unreleased version of this song, which we recorded with Yoko Kato at that recording school she was attending in San Francisco. That version will appear on a future Source Mirror Record volume since it seemed overkill to include two whole versions of the same song on volume 1.
