are the ida albums ever likely to take on any other physical forms?

maybe!!

cassettes are fun, but they're not very great for capacity or accurately and losslessly storing lots of material. i've seen some artists around me do releases where they include acapellas and stems alongside the release; Can of Bliss' debut album and @fwf's deluxe edition of 'This Is Not Modern Life' both come to mind. the former just including the bonus content as a download link, and the latter including all the tracks and stems and original demos and videoclips and bonus content on an SD card.

with the 'idaidaida' cassette tape we managed to get all the bonus tracks on just a single tape. plus everyone who bought a tape also gets a digital download of all of them, so there's no worries there about distributing those audio files to everyone. but if i ever were to create an even more deluxe edition of it with stems and other material, i'm definitely thinking of putting it on a CD, doing an SD card release like what Friends Without Faces did in collaboration with Deskpop (rip), or maybe even doing something more experimental like a zette! (seriously, this is SO cool! i wish i had a decent printer so i could start experimenting with this format more)

all of those media formats require a lot more planning and investment than what we've done before with CUTE CERVID, so for now they're just ideas. i'd love to make it happen at some point in the future, though!
