CLOSED: Win a free Count Bass D “BegBorrowSteel” Cassette
Here’s your chance to win a free copy of the very limited new cassette from Count Bass D, producer & MC from Atlanta. One of the most inspiring and truly independent artists.
The contest is now over. Congratulations to the lucky winner!
The Prize
via Trashflow: 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.
No Preorders available.
Available for purchase on August 25th.
