Analog Audio Tape Cassette Nostalgia from Tapedeck.org


The compact audio cassette medium for audio storage was introduced by Philips in 1963. Its use in the West has declined as a result of more advanced technologies. However, it remains widespread, and is still the dominant medium for listening to music in many third world countries.

Tapedeck.org is a project of neckcns.com, built to showcase the amazing beauty and (sometimes) weirdness found in the designs of the common audio tape cassette. There’s an amazing range of designs, starting from the early 60’s functional cassette designs, moving through the colourful playfulness of the 70’s audio tapes to amazing shape variations during the 80’s and 90’s.

I hope you enjoy these tapes as much as I do.
