About this project

We are producing an extremely limited edition of Tom Hamill's surf guitar masterpiece Lost Songs 2005-2008 alongside a very special split remix ep from English twee-pop all-stars Sleeps In Oysters and Milwaukee gentleman of the laptop guitar, Made Of Oak.

The funds we raise will cover the modest material costs involved in producing these handmade tapes.

You can listen to both tapes here: http://wolf.luvsound.org

Tom Hamill: http://www.lifeguitar.com Sleeps In Oysters: http://www.myspace.com/sleepsinoysters Made Of Oak: http://www.myspace.com/madeofoak

All tapes come with a download code, so you can devour the music digitally immediately after we reach funding while you wait for your tape to be lovingly assembled in the Wolf Interval factory office! Materials costs include: 100 Awesome High Bias Color Cassettes for $80 118 Sweet Unbreakable Clear Cassette Cases* for $28.15 500 Kaleidoscopically pretty offset-printed heavy postcards** - we cut these down to make the packaging as well as use them to spread the word - for $103.46 A pack of printable vellum sheets for inserts for $12 100 custom 1" Wolf Interval buttons for $50 Shipping costs and materials*** $80 The Kickstarter fee is about $26.39 (They take 5%)

Which means $380 will buy the materials we need for these tapes! Cheap for sure all things considered, but we can't do it without your help! *We have some great translucent tapes from the same source donated generously by Tom which need cases if you're wondering about those extra cases. **It would be tempting to skimp here, but ordering smaller quantities means a crappy looking digital printing process - the offset prints look amazing. Seriously. ***This is an estimate. Based on the last tape we produced, this might not cover shipping costs entirely, but it'll sure help offset them!
