Ecstasy Mule was pleased, Nay! Flattered! to be asked by Jamison Williams to contribute a track to his "Social Studies" podcast, and proudly offered him the heretofore unheard song "Square Cooper" played on saz, bouzouki and some Indian zither thing that looks like a typewriter. I forget what it's called. Anyway, the 'cast is streaming at here. And of course, dig around. There's lots of other things to hear there.

Dictaphonia Vol. 2: Free Download
Microcassette comp with a track by yours truly, made by putting my microcassette recorder in my grandfather's saxophone and playing as quietly as I could while the news played on the radio.
Here's stalwart microcassette compiler Hal McGee's words to direct you, should you want direction:
Go to this page on my web site to listen in streaming audio and download individual mp3s of the tracks on the Dictaphonia Microcassette Compilation,Volume 2:He's still accepting submissions, but they have to be submitted on microcassette. Anything good on your old answering machine?
I offer two versions of the mp3s, one at 320 kbps for high speed Internet connections, and one at 64 kbps for dial-up and slower connections.
Dictaphonia 2 is still available for purchase in its original microcassette format.
