with the recent round of layoffs at #bandcamp, the time has come to download all the music I ever bought from there (bought a lot of physical releases that I never ended up downloading) and go to one of the better alternatives. using https://github.com/easlice/bandcamp-downloader, seems to be doing a great job so far.
using
bandcamp-downloader.py --cookies /path/to/cookies/cookies.sqlite -f flac -x --directory albums/ username-here
seems to be doing a good job, not the fastest but you just hit return and let the machine do the work, so that's fine.

Picked up a very mouldy, broken, dirty #cassette in #KualaLumpur: a collection of songs by Frances Yip, an absolute #cantopop legend.
Someone had been inside before, fixing a snapped-off leader tape by just connecting the magnetic tape directly to the reel. The card insert was bent and fox-eared and the jewel case cracked. Parts were covered in insect droppings.
Replaced the felt pad and rusty screws, spliced in a new leader, straightened the tape shell with heat, cleaned, steamed and pressed the card, replaced the case and slip mats, reglued the labels... the mould came off with a few plays and now it looks and sounds great. It has its battle scars but it's alive and kicking, ready for another 46 years.
