<div>From Dave Fuglewicz&#39;s notes at the Internet Archive:</div> <div>https://archive.org/details/IndustrialStrength1</div> <div>&nbsp;</div> <div>Industrial Strength #1 was released in October of 1990 on cassette. This was my first release even though I had been recording for a number of years. At that time I was unaware just how large the independent tape network was, but I was about to find out. This Archive.Org posting includes the bonus track &quot;Madcap Bells&quot; which is not on either the cassette or CD versions. A scan of the original cassette j-card artwork is included below. All tracks recorded to my trusty four track Vesta-Fire MR-10B cassette deck unless noted. My equipment at this time was ARP 2600, ARP Odyssey, several built-by-me analog synthesizer modules, Digitech 7.6 echo unit, Echoplex and several foot pedal effects box.<br style="box-sizing: border-box; color: rgb(51, 51, 51); font-family: &#39;Helvetica Neue&#39;, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px;" /> <br style="box-sizing: border-box; color: rgb(51, 51, 51); font-family: &#39;Helvetica Neue&#39;, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px;" /> Individual track notes:<br style="box-sizing: border-box; color: rgb(51, 51, 51); font-family: &#39;Helvetica Neue&#39;, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px;" /> 1) &quot;Fragmented&quot;; the original title was &quot;Fragmento&#39;s Delicatessen, which I changed around 2004. This composition was completed in August of 1990.<br style="box-sizing: border-box; color: rgb(51, 51, 51); font-family: &#39;Helvetica Neue&#39;, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px;" /> <br style="box-sizing: border-box; color: rgb(51, 51, 51); font-family: &#39;Helvetica Neue&#39;, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px;" /> 2) &quot;Nuclear Destiny&quot;, completed in January of 1990.<br style="box-sizing: border-box; color: rgb(51, 51, 51); font-family: &#39;Helvetica Neue&#39;, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px;" /> <br style="box-sizing: border-box; color: rgb(51, 51, 51); font-family: &#39;Helvetica Neue&#39;, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px;" /> 3) &quot;Radioactive Suicide&quot;, completed in June of 1988, this is a sound-on-sound recording. This and &quot;Nuclear Destiny&quot; explored my feelings of the very real possibilities of global thermo-nuclear war during the 1980&#39;s and looking back how I had really lived with those threats my entire life.<br style="box-sizing: border-box; color: rgb(51, 51, 51); font-family: &#39;Helvetica Neue&#39;, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px;" /> <br style="box-sizing: border-box; color: rgb(51, 51, 51); font-family: &#39;Helvetica Neue&#39;, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px;" /> 4) &quot;Tetrahedral Fusion&quot;, completed in March of 1990. The title was influenced by my reading of some of the works of Buckminster Fuller at that time.<br style="box-sizing: border-box; color: rgb(51, 51, 51); font-family: &#39;Helvetica Neue&#39;, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px;" /> <br style="box-sizing: border-box; color: rgb(51, 51, 51); font-family: &#39;Helvetica Neue&#39;, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px;" /> 5) &quot;Stray Gravity Waves #1&quot;, completed in May of 1988, this is a sound-on-sound recording</div>
