Tapegerm was formed in 1999 out of a project on GAJOOB with artists making new music from loops extracted from homemade cassette albums in our archive. The .ORG site, directed by original founder Briyan Frederick Baker, launched in the fall of 2025. It documents and provides new acceess to this activity while encouraging new collaborators to regerminate the continuing evolution with new and vintage sounds and further musical exploration.
