Studying Horticulture during lockdowns, Obarzanek wrote and recorded a folk tape entitled “Dingo’s Lost Tape” inspired by humans relationship (or lack there of) with nature in combination with “outsider” folk/rock musicians of the late 60’s/early 70’s. The entire album was recorded through his 4-track tape recorder in his studio in Princes Hill, Melbourne.

He released the album on his label ‘Happy Tapes’ under the alias Val Lincoln (who also uses the alias of Dingo Robinson).
