What the title says, basically. On reddit there’s r/cassetteculture but for the moment I can’t find anything like that on lemmy. Would be nice to have a community like this here! If there isn’t one, should I create it? I don’t have that much experience with moderating or hosting communities, so I’m not sure about it at the moment…
Oh I do have a lot of records as well, but cassettes have their charm as well! It’s easy to take them on the go (provided you have a walkman, which ALSO has its charm hahaha) and a lot cheaper than records. I like to collect my music on physical media, and cassettes make that very easy for me. A lot of the more “underground”/indie bands I listen to still release their music on tape as well. Plus, it’s very satisfying, indeed. I didn’t really grow up with cassettes (I’m 27), but nonetheless it has a certain feel to it.
Also lofi is fun and less serious than HiFi.
Yes, this! No annoying purists in the cassette community (they might be there, tho, but haven’t encountered any yet so there’s that)
