Tapegerm is a pool of source audio started as projects which artists inject into new work. The sounds germinate via new compositions and new collections. A source can spread and be carried by 100's of works mutating in endless forms. Currently there are 572 collaboration projects dropped into the pool by 56 artists, labels and publishers. 424 source files are archived as well.
To get started, create an account, pick a project or game a random set of sources then create something new. Upload your work and link your credits so your germ spreads throughout the site. If you want to contribute to the pool, let us know in the Tapegerm group on Facebook.

Love this track, Nick. Especially after using the spoken word source in my most recent gamegerm. I think it's beautiful how sources mix into different compositions. Yours bounces around so cool.

Glad you enjoyed the show, Mr. Mime! Many thanks for sharing the positive words with your readers too. I know this album would not be the way it is without Tapegerm, and I offer you my sincerest gratitude and respect for keeping this site alive! May 2017 bring you and the rest of us many creative moments.
Love this track, Nick. Especially after using the spoken word source in my most recent gamegerm. I think it's beautiful how sources mix into different compositions. Yours bounces around so cool.
