Vive la cassette!
MonsterK7 is an French indie label that is determined to bring back the cassette tape, which according to their manifesto (yes they really have a manifesto, check it out on their website) was "sacrificed on the altar of modernity". To do this, they publish all their artist's releases on cassette tape. In a constantly more digital world and with the question of digital rights management being constantly debated, I thought this was an interesting nod to a simpler time.
