Changing the direction of Entropy in Music


Changing the direction of tape speed time travel can of cource change the direction of entropy and predicting the future.


This can be heard in Abracadabra - Steve Miller Band, where they recorded with the tape backwards. So the guitar's reverb is heard before it's actual note.


Reference:

The excellent book: Good Vibrations (has a few note on Abba using varispeed as mentioned by their engineer Michael Tretow.


Michael Tretow had been playing with tape (time) machines since a kid and this process had become 2d  life to  him.
