The Return of Cassettes

Once I got started collecting and using vintage stereo components and boomboxes, I started wondering if I could get new music on cassettes.  I was surprised and somewhat shocked that there is a whole underground music scene that distributes music on cassette.  It's a movement driven by cost and a certain amount of nostalgia for analog music media.  You can find a cassette with great music released by an indie label for about $5.  It's a good chance to support struggling artists and listen to something new and cutting edge!
