Photo of a purple cassette tape labeled "Environmental Music For The Multitasker", along its J card showing the drawing of a lion and a mountain in the background.

I bought this cassette tape last year, when it was released in November. From the artist:

Environmental Music For The Multitasker is a slow cooked collection of eight songs.

The first bits were created in 2020. But quarantine and other boring stuff resulted in the equivalent of a writers block. The tracks fell asleep on a harddrive. It wasn’t until Purlieu said "let’s do a tape" that I found the lost joy of noodling with sounds and the collected tracks were finished.

Somewhere in the start the theme was ”no theme”. I think? Can’t really remember.

Anyways I read some grumpy old guitar man saying all modern music (i guess post Toto) is just background noise for young people while doing something else. So there’s that truth and here are eight songs to ignore and have in the background.

The album has 8 meditative tracks that are perfect for a cloudy day with a hot beverage. While listen to the album sometimes it would catch me attention ("are those children noises?") and eventually it would drift to the background again.

Favorite song: Wide Field.
