(*In)Complete list of recorded sessions, jams, loops, samples, mix sessions and field recordings by (or if used by) Europ Europ 1996 - 2003ish

Europ Europ - "we mean junk with soul ~ we mean you good ~ we mean model, dance child like a baby ... the story so far"

Intro

"...To get this list as accurate as possible, we have gone through our private collection of memorabilia and old tapes, old sketchbooks and checking dates on old photos +++
Still; when completing this list we found a bunch of cassettes with no clues whatsoever,
no names, locations, dates, titles, trivia nada!...
(not to mention all those times we unfortunately forgot to press record before we carved out possible no 1 hits)

Also going through scraps we realise we have lost some tapes as well, for those we only rely on handwritten notes and hope that somebody remembers being at that session and/or have the tape ... then please let us know so we can rip it!

Last, but not least, some of the 4 and 8 track recordings have been recorded over long periods, adding tracks or bits and pieces ++ we have no chance to remember all this, but some strong memories from the events have stayed with us, so these are presented sometimes as extra trivia for each date chapter! Any original listing is based on the date of first recording. We do not mean to lie to anybody so please contact us through etchwear@gmail.com if you have some details you want us to correct or important dates/happenings we should include! Or most important: if you were at a session that we have forgotten and/or were part of it ;-) Thanx in advance!

... but at least we have this list: Enjoy!"
