" The Minóy archival project is completed. The intensity of finishing it in 2023, after ten years working on it, has made it very difficult to speak with perspective about it. (I'll need to work through that after some time off) His works have been in my head, and headphones, for the last decade... and even longer, I suppose. On Friday I will make available the final eleven Minóy releases. It will be done then, and there will be 160 finished albums from the archive. Yet and still, the archive is not a complete accounting of his tapeography, there were many, many tapes missing from it. On the flip, there were so many tapes in the archive that were previously unknown, never before heard, and it's been extremely gratifying to present these albums to his fans and whatever new ears will find him in the future. What tremendous personal energy Minóy exerted! Between 1984-1994, the ten years he was actively making sounds, he created music compulsively, manically, more than 200 finished tapes! It took me an equal amount of time to finish the digitization and remastering of the archive. The project is complete. Long live Minóy! "
