Original cassette release from 1985. First release on Lydia Lunch's own label Widowspeak. Great condition.
Note on the cassette said: Rare out-takes, mixes, re-mixes, uncensored and experimental versions, private demos, not available on any LP. Of course this has been re-released both on vinyl and CD since. But this is the original 1983 tape release in excellent condition. A bit of tape hiss, but still decent sound quality.
Television live cassette, original UK edition. According to discogs there are two versions, this is the one with the "counter" above the tape window. It's unclear whether these are genuinely different editions or copy runs or whether just slightly different raw cassettes were used in the same run. Extreme trainspotter stuff!With that out of the way, here's a glorious live recording by the one and only Television from 1978, released in 1982!
Original ROIR tape release of live recordings of 8 Eyed Spy, Lydia Lunch's band in the early 80s. Tape in top condition.
Reissue on SST from 1988. Used copy in excellent condition - a little bit of tape hiss, but pays fine.
Extremely rare promo tape version of Dog Star Man. CAUTION: sound on the tape has deteriorated over the decades and is "wobbly". Don't buy this for the sound, only if you are a MBM completist. I believe this is the only copy of this item on the internet - no discogs entry yet (as of August 2025!!).

Used copy in excellent condition. Grey cardboard, not numbered, black tape.
Tape version of the seminal Chris & Cosey album Heartbeat. Original on Rough Trade from 1981. Still decent sound quality.
“Ladies and gentlemen welcome aboard Flight 4B7 with service from Babylon to nowhere.”Brace Brace are three air stewards who have survived an airborne catastrophe. They are in a scorched and desolate landscape. It is a world that appears to have been destroyed and abandoned. To survive they must make sense of this forbidding environment. Ambient soundscapes, broken beats and the spoken word begin to reveal a world of strange new possibilities. ‘Welcome Aboard’ is an album that tells a story, mixing broken machine music with ‘cello, bass guitar, accordion and other live instrumentation. It is the first album by Brace Brace.creditsreleased May 9, 2025 via bracebraceband.bandcamp.comLuther Blissett – Beat ManglerLance Cutlery – WordsJeff Logan – ‘Cello, Bass Guitar, Melodica, vocalsEnrico Atterraggio – AccordionDr Pudding – Additional Instrumentation

We demand space + freedom of movement for all.

A rigorous creed of human-machine interface and collective expression has always guided Detroit’s Delien. With over ten years of activity, this two man duo haunts our memories as a cyborg presence at otherwise bearded noise shows while today they churn the long game basis for the Detroit Industrial crew. What we have here is an annex, an additional entry in the assembly of an identify, 4 tracks rendered to tape, demarcating an unbroken timeline. Raw industrial, take in an earful. (label info) two copies in stock - both show a bit of storage wear, one of them has cracks in the plastic case.
