Music & Recording
Finish the song. Play it to eleven people. Start another.
Demonstration only. In a deployment with accounts, this would add you to Basement Tape Club and notify you when Theo Mwangi posts a new gathering. This blueprint has no accounts and stores nothing, so the button opens this note instead.
Basement Tape Club is for people who record at home and never let anyone hear it. The group’s whole purpose is a deadline with a face attached: every month, you play one thing, finished or not.
Feedback follows one format. The room says what it heard before it says what it would change, which turns out to be the difference between a useful note and a discouraging one.
Members range from a session bassist to someone who bought a four-track in March and has been learning ever since. The four-track owner has released more music this year.
You play one thing. It does not have to be good and it does not have to be done.
Feedback starts with what the room actually heard. Suggestions come second, if at all.
Every December the group compiles the year’s tracks for members only. Twenty-two songs last time.

Hobby electronics for people building things nobody asked for — plant sensors, pocket synths, a doorbell that plays a cello note.
Learning Together
One skill, one evening, taught by a member who learned it recently enough to remember which part was confusing.
