From hip-hop DJʼs to punks to sound engineers, Cassette asks its subjects, as well as the audience, to remember. The film approaches the audio cassette as not just another obsolete sound carrier, but as a handmade time capsule. Addressing this nostalgia in the context of our digital, downloadable world, Cassette poses the question: “What is it about the cassette that wonʼt die?”
Cassette focuses on musicians and listeners whose lives have been impacted by the compact cassette, as well as the original surviving engineers responsible for its creation.
