017: ' A Suitcase of Drone'

In this week's show, we talk to Portland base sound and visual artist Amulets. We have a great conversation on his journey of tape! We talk tape equipment, artistic approach, his lineage of visual art and how his music has been part of his therapy. We touch on a lot of stuff in this one, sit back and grab a coffee!
