Only on Tape, Vol. 1

Tape Lab Drops a 1-of-1 Mixtape: Exclusive, Underground, and Gone Forever

In an era when everything is streamed, cloned, and copied, Tape Lab just did the opposite. The collective has released a single-copy mixtape — a 1-of-1 artifact featuring exclusive, unreleased tracks and songs that will never appear anywhere else.

FIND IT HERE.

This isn’t a playlist. It’s a relic. A piece of lost media in the making. The only way to experience it? By getting your hands on the original tape, available only through TapeLab.live. Once it’s gone, it’s gone forever.

For fans of underground music, DIY culture, and the rare thrill of physical ownership, this release feels like a rebellion. In an age of infinite scroll, Tape Lab is carving a lane for scarcity, tangibility, and pure analog energy.

Expect raw sound. Alternate versions. Unmixed chaos. The kind of sonic weirdness that never sees daylight on streaming platforms. This exclusive mixtape captures the essence of what Tape Lab stands for — experimentation, limitation, and pure creative freedom.

If you know, you know. And if you want it, go now. Because once this tape leaves the lab, it’s history.

TapeLab

Welcome to #TapeLab—stay a while and listen. Founded in 2017 by lifelong friends, Tape Lab is a collective of artists and a hub for innovation, always open to collaboration. With the zeal of a self-published memoir, our sound is our own, but you can be the decider. We make music and art that sounds like it was fun to make and stands out in a sea of bland beats.

As independent artists, we are always exploring new ways to expand our audience and find new creative outlets—especially with other undiscovered artists!

#TapeLab is currently based out of two headquarters in Durham, NC, and The Hamptons, NY.
