Top 200 Tapes Of 2015

12.11.15 by Tabs Out Crew



Oh shit. Here we go again. As another year comes to a close we at Tabs Out must fulfill our contractual obligation to rank the best cassettes of 2015, as per the agreement we made with Cassatan centuries ago. We don’t want to do this, we must. Lest we be heaved into a flaming pit of magnetic tape and broken decks, a 30-second loop of tortured souls being the only thing we hear for all of eternity. Too scary.

As usual, all tapes have been scientifically calculated and are in their correct positions. No mistakes have been made. This list has been checked 69 times by supercomputers and a guy named Jack we know. Jack owns a calculator. Real complicated stuff. Everything has been culled from the 1,000ish tapes that we received in the mail, or bought/traded for over the past 12 months. We did not include anything by our own projects or released on any of our labels (2:00AM, 905, or Beyond The Ruins).

If you would like to complain about a tape not making the list, please fill out this form and we will look into it. Let’s do this!
