1.3 Rewind: Cassettify - Spotify for Cassettes
The project is made by Imara Bollinger & Matthias van der Waal.
This tribute is a very good example of how old types of media could be repurposed to serve a new kind of purpose in the digital age we live in today. There is a significant amount of people from all over the world that have grown up with cassette tapes, and thus with Cassettify it would be a perfect way to reconnect with this type of media. When thinking about how to improve this idea, an interesting way to do this is to make a service that lets you select what kind of old media you want the music to be submitted on.
For example, records and even CD’s could also be seen as viable choices. With this, Cassettify would not only attract consumers that have nostalgic feelings towards cassettes, but also other types of old media consumers as well!
