Fiction. Essays, reports, art, stories, comics, and manifestoes from the citizens of the real music underground, where the cassette tape and the home studio have provoked a mass exodus into basements, bedrooms or garages around the world. These networkers, in conjunction with the Zine Culture and the International Postal System, manically produce, trade, and distribute their own music, in their own style and for their own purposes, free from the censuring,perception-clogging nets of cash and commerce, forging what has fondly become known as the Cassette Culture.
