Welcome

Written and Recorded in 1988

When I first bought me a multitrack recorder that recognises each of four channels of the normal cassette tape, i. e. left and right channels for Side A and Side B, as a track during the summer holiday of 1988, I was so excited to the fact that finally I obtained a magical equipment that enables me to record whatever I like in a proper way. As soon as I have unboxed the multitracker, I began to make my own recording by carefully following the instruction, which included explanations on some tips on recording technics such as ping/pong, punch-in/out and so on. By the time I reached to the last page of the instruction's recording section, every part of the trial recording has been done, which consisted of rhythm machine, bass guitar, rhythm guitar, lead guitar and my voice. Then, I turned the page for looking at the mixing section and turned over the cassette tape for trying out the reverse tape effect. The result of the mix-down then is what you hear in the audio track of this video :)
I gave this title, addressing to the prospective listeners in the future to mean 'welcome to the world of my personal recording experiments' as an initial greeting from me.
