We got a few orders this Bandcamp Friday. So excited to finally have something to ship. Also, we will give 19 tapes for free as part of our deal “Get a Z Tapes tape for free.” Hopeful day!

We are closer and closer to our cassette goal. We need to sell 200 tapes before making a new release. Get a tape and help us be there soon!

There is a cool spot in Bratislava making vegan sushi, and their receipt says it all. We stand with them, we stand with you.

I’ve been thinking about writing a series about running a cassette label, but I never managed to sit down and shape my thoughts and experience into words. I’ve always wanted to share how I’ve been running the label since 2013.

We have basically lost all our EU orders. Not sure what happened? If you have been buying tapes from us before, what is preventing you from doing so now? What changed?

We have this little fellow. The price of one or two coffees, or half a meal. A small number, but it means a lot to our team of 30+ writers and to us!

I think I am going to give up this never-ending battle.

Donated 80 to charity based on the past sales of our compilations. Mind-blowing.

Talking about cassettes in a small town in rural Slovakia is surreal. Sold three tapes. Just amazing.

filip from start-track.com @filip.start-track.com · 27/12/2025

We have been honest about the state of our label, so we wanted to share that we decided to wait for new releases before we sell an additional 200 cassettes. It seems a lot, but it used to take us two months to sell that much. If you want to help us, get a tape or two and tell your friends.

This is me happily sitting before one of the best interpretations of the classic story of Cyrano in Brno (Czechia). Good times.

I asked Google Search AI "what is start track blog". The answer is satisfying and accurate. It is so strange to see something that was for so long shift so dramatically.
