Cassettes are surprisingly durable and cheap too. I just bought 2 cassette tapes today at a yard sale for $2 each. Cassettes have a unique sound to me, it could be the fact that it's all analog.
This depends on the materials used. Go grab a maxell XLII-S from around 1987 and throw it on the dash. Heck leave it there for 5 years i bet you itll still be fine and still play..
i grew up with CDs so when i started getting into analog audio i was always a vinyl record guy over tape… until i started recording on my own! tapes are so much fun and when you have decent equipment they can actually sound fantastic (much like vinyl records).
They used to make ones that were much sturdier and more resistant to heat. Ford used to give you one when you bought one of their vehicles back in the late80's/early 90's.
Important is that there is still some information on the tape and since it's analog, you can play at least parts of it, while if it was digital, it would be just corrupt and not possible to play it at all.
I used to keep my tapes on my dashboard all the time because my car had an indent on the passenger side for storage, although i don’t live in a hot country so melting was never an issue lmao.
Back in the days when I used cassettes (I still regularly use an old car with a cassette player - more sophisticated mechanism than big brands' late decks, but don't bother myself with the hassle of using cassettes) I regularly left some on the dashboard and I've never have such a problem, neither with cheap prerecorded cassettes, nor with TDKs, SONYs, AGFAs, BASFs or MAXELLs.
Me and my sister have been cleaning out old boxes of clutter in my moms house and 2 whole boxes of my dad's old cassette tapes were found, all of which I listen to on spotify already. Cassettes are coming back more in the younger generations I think because, we're so use to having to have wifi or cell phone reception to be able to listen to music. Cassettes just make it easier to be able to listen to whatever whenever. Even new music can be recorded onto empty maxwell tapes. The past is the future for sure
for sure, I collect both tapes and vinyl. I think cassettes today are popular with people who enjoy analog music like vinyl, but at a much cheaper price. it's about sitting down and really focusing on what you're listening to. Streaming has the habit of making us skip songs and/or lose interest in an album only 1 or 2 songs in
When I left tapes on the Dashboard and tryed to play, after they cooled off to play Them, they made a Dreadful Squeaking noise, both in the Player & in the Audio sound system! Can't Win!
duplication.ca is a great company that handles all our tape needs :) based out of Canada but I'm sure they ship anywhere. They have all kinds of stuff on their online store
Wonder how it sounds ? Lol Now that's funny.Wake up people and never leave ur cassettes on a dashboard. They are so compact and small.Before you get out of your car , just pop it out , put it in the case and then ur pocket.👍🙂
Well in the first place you say I wonder how she sounds good after you go through all the trouble of replacing the the housing you plug it into a recorder tape player and you got background music covering up everything does that make sense?
@@bucksmoonlightrevival Oh, right, haha... pretty obscure reference. Loran was a small company who designed cassettes to withstand abuse, especially from hot cars. Their shells were so strong that you could barely punch out the tabs, so they also came out with some really unique twist / slide mechanisms. And they had good tape inside. Their NOS blank cassettes are pretty expensive when you find them, but if you do ever want to try one out for cheap, you can usually salvage a basic Loran donor shell from old Ford demonstration cassettes, which Ford used to include with their cars to show off the stereo systems. ...btw, I do recognize that this reply was too long and mostly missed the point of your video ;)
The tape just got 30 years of wear lol. However that case had to be rather cheap, I've never seen a Sony cassette to do any thing similar for example. Fair enough modern cassettes aren't particularly known for quality, now. Are they?
Where do you live that it got that hot? Sure you didn't just take a shortcut and bake it in the oven? That's what I'm gonna try now that it's almost September
@@bucksmoonlightrevival i apologize…TH-cam seems to hate me! I posted that comment on a record player short to help someone fix their player, but it left it on this which I watched a bit before…no idea what to tell you
That's actually a really cool effect, funny enough
The band Boards of Canada artificially ages casette players and even buried one underground for a year for one of their tracks.
@@chinchiIIa Whats the song called?
I really like the blue shell.
This made me happy actually, seeing someone still listening cassette tape 🥰.
hell ya we do, we recorded our entire first album with a cassette recorder th-cam.com/video/7ACZAUkqor4/w-d-xo.html
The trend is coming back! 😂
you'd love me then
Well come over my way. Still got cassette 8 tracks vhs and even old vacuum tubes. Lol
man im only 20 and I’ve got a Sanyo cassette boombox from the 80’s 😂. I’ve made a few of my own mixtapes so far over the last year or two
Used to have em strewn across the floor of the car in the 90s
ooo that's next summers experiment lol 😂
That's a no no.Never leave your cassettes on the floor in ur car.
@@PlayitagainVHSinstead leave them in one of those pockets on the back of the front seats IN THEIR CASES I SWEAR TO GOD-
@@PlayitagainVHS did em no harm
If someones desperate they may try ab steal them by breaking in to itvetc.

hell ya tape is soo cooool :)
The only problem is that they come with an expiration date
@lov_eli True, but with proper care and storage they can last for many decades. There are cassettes from the 60s that still sound amazing.
@@spaceKadz yeah... still prefer vinyl though, now that can last centuries with proper care and will still sound amazing
@@lov_eliall physical media has an expiration date
authentic analog horror music 101
lol :)
PS3 startup sound moment
Underrated comment
Negative 3
I have preformed that exact surgery myself
Lol
Me aswell
All the time
i also peformed a surgery on a cassette but its was reattaching the tape to the reel
blue transparent case of tape seems delightful
You mean "shell"
How can I buy this and is it of high cost
@@sasiat4718Eh cassettes are pretty cheap, and you can just order them or buy them at yard sales
This depends on the materials used. Go grab a maxell XLII-S from around 1987 and throw it on the dash. Heck leave it there for 5 years i bet you itll still be fine and still play..

for sure! I love tape the best myself :)
BRO, the fact that when he is going to pick the cassette on the dashboard, you can see two cassettes there 😅
They used to make ones that were much sturdier and more resistant to heat. Ford used to give you one when you bought one of their vehicles back in the late80's/early 90's.
this actually sounds sick id listen to this at night you need to release the whole song

“I wonder how she sounds” **cracking and breaking** “ohhhhhh”

lol that's good :) what country?
@@bucksmoonlightrevival Ireland. We could use a bit of sun though!
We visited Ireland a couple years back when we played at Electric Picnic :) beautiful country!
Wonder how she sounds??? Lmfao😂
I see a video from a guy finding a cassette in a beach, flooded and exposed a lot of time.
Still worked, the cassettes last a life
sounds cool!
This Is Why Cassette Tapes Always Has To Be In a Plastic Box To Kept It Safe
Take better care of your stuff. Beautiful music. Added to my play list.

Where did you buy that shell? I want to transplant some of my ugly/gross 2nd hand tapes...
duplication.ca is a great company that handles all our tape needs :) based out of Canada but I'm sure they ship anywhere. They have all kinds of stuff on their online store
This summer, try that with a CD, a USB stick, an SD card and an external HDD, just for comparison of durability ;-)
lol
This never happened to me.... how, I don't know.
Cool noises :-)

If I ever get a Walkman WM-20, I’d be happy to play your cassette tape on it
those players are cool :)
2002-2004 Honda Odyssey dash 😳😳

No way the spool is not stuck together like that.
ya the tape didn't completely melt somehow lol just a bit warped based on how it sounds
Try this again with a 1994 Maxell XLII-S.
Well in the first place you say I wonder how she sounds good after you go through all the trouble of replacing the the housing you plug it into a recorder tape player and you got background music covering up everything does that make sense?
that's the sound
Now try a "Loran"!
lol what's that?

...maybe lol :)
what player is that? i tried looking online and i couldn’t find anyone selling it
google Detson cassette recorder, it came up for me :) I got it locally, someone's old junk, it works most of the time lol
Similar to BoC in a way, the effect and the music I mean.
For sure!
That's what happened to one of my tapes but I didn't leave it out It just sounded like that
lol
@@bucksmoonlightrevivalDo you think it was because it was old It was a Cheap Trick one
It is melted

Where did you buy it
