“A taper is a person who records musical events, often from standing microphones in the audience, for the benefit of the musical group's fanbase. Such taping was popularized in the late 1960s and early 1970s by fans of the Grateful Dead.

Audio recording, while not officially allowed until the creation by the band of a "tapers' section" behind the soundboard in the mid-1980s, was generally tolerated at shows and fans would share their tapes through trade. Taping and trading became a Grateful Dead sub-culture.

Tapers generally record using their own equipment with permission from the artist. Taper recordings are commonly considered legal because the recordings are permitted and distribution is free.

The "Taper Recording Sessions" are a new series of more intimate concerts, taking place in exceptional locations (itinerant recording studios) in the Brussels-Capital Region, during which the musicians/artists will be on a central stage, with a seated audience enjoying themselves while we record the musicians/artists and their performances with 360 ° cameras and the necessary audio support.
