You ever grow anything in the garden of your mind? You can grow ideas in your mind. You can think about things and make believe things and that’s like growing something of your own. You have wonderful ideas. All you have to do is think about them and they’ll grow…

MindGarden is a forty minute instrumental composition by Ohbliv. For Thrash Flow's debut release, this is a limited run of only two hundred fifty tapes. The first fifty orders will receive a limited gold cassette tape instead of a clear tape. All tapes are hand numbered and include a digital download card. The cassette comes with one bonus track and the digital download comes with a separate bonus track.

Ohbliv - Southside Vibrations

A selection from our second tape release: thrashflow.com/products/count-bass-d-begborrowsteel-cassette-dl-card

Next up for our second release is BEGBORROWSTEEL by Count Bass D. This was originally released by Count Bass D on CD in 2003 through his own imprint, CountBassD.com.  It was later released on February 21, 2004 as an EP on vinyl (JSV-001) with one bonus track and CD (OTCD-2038) with 4 bonus tracks, through Jazzy Sport/Octave. A worldwide release came later on RAMP Recordings (RAMP003) on Vinyl and CD which included instrumentals and 3 additional bonus tracks.

Count Bass D always intended BEGBORROWSTEEL to be released on cassette.  The original release in 2003 closes with the track, "Low Batteries."  The title is inspired by the moment a portable cassette player slows down because the batteries are running low.  We decided that it is only right to release BEGBORROWSTEEL the same way Count intended it to be released, so it ends with "Low Batteries."   

The tape comes with the original artwork from the 2003 CD release, a lyric booklet and a digital download card that includes all of the extra tracks from the later editions of BEGBORROWSTEEL. Finally there is one more bonus track for a total number of 8.

This is a limited run of 100 "steel" colored and hand numbered tapes.

"The term 'Gold Rush' was made popular in the mid 1800s. Various seekers from across the land hurried into the Southwest in hopes of new beginnings and valuable treasures. As a result of this event, countless diggers furiously battled over gold, the object of desire. These '49ers were early day hustlers, simply out to get their prize with nothing to stop them. This still applies, in a world where technology helps us reach our dreams and aspirations. That is what this tape resembles: another rush to get the gold."

“This tape gave me the chance to create without being beholden to any preconceived ideas of how it should sound.  For much of this project, I would make something out of a few samples and then proceed to layer them with analog synthesizers.  While not the only synth on deck, the Korg Minilogue played a significant role in creating these tracks.  Some were made while living in Atlanta and the others were created back here in my hometown of Pittsburgh, PA...hence the title 'Home Again'”
