ISC Compilation Tapes came out of Peterborough, England, in the mid-'80s, and were the brainchild of ex-APF Brigade, and one-time The Peace & Freedom Band member Andi Xport.

The idea was to receive music of all shades and hues from around the world, and put it together on compilation tapes. Bands whose work was featured included Chumbawamba, Blyth Power, and Thatcher On Acid.

Xport had so many tapes sent to him - they loosely numbered 3,000 - many ended up under his bed in Peterborough, as space was compromised. ISC Tapes, standing for 'International Sound Communication', was a major starting point for a lot of bands and individuals who were struggling to get radio airplay at the time.
