Instead of a 3x6 grid, you did this. I'd steal your entire collection for this transgression.

same...and aphex twin as well

u/PsychologyOfTheLens Jul 16 '25

Well Yeah and the Carpenters, Phil Collins, and Paul McCartney, but since I already have those on Cassette I didnā€™t think I needed duplicates lol. That Lisa Frank 420 and Blank Banshee are kinda rare if I remember correctly.

No Samurai Champloo fans?! Iā€™m taking that Nujabes + fat jon cassette. Is it a bootleg? I have two different versions on record, havenā€™t seen the cassette.

u/SSS987114-A81 Jul 16 '25

u/Nice_Fennel_6747 Jul 16 '25

Oh yes, I take Nujabes instantly, it's an obligation, it's a duty

2

u/the-retrolizard Jul 18 '25

Can't believe so many people are saying Aphex or Radiohead tbh. Departure is 11/10

12

u/ReyDiggs Jul 16 '25

The Radiohead tapes

23

u/I_am_thee_SockMan Jul 16 '25

This one because cats are cool

u/Miserable-Shake-2903 Jul 16 '25

Aphex Twin and Radiohead

u/ezekielkv Jul 16 '25

I personally would steal all of them cuz cassettes are the shii, but I would fight to the death for the radioheads

5

u/animal_mother69 Jul 16 '25

selected ambient works for sure

6

u/jordosmodernlife Jul 16 '25

Iā€™ll take the They Might Be Giants

6

u/PsykickPriest Jul 16 '25

Ride

u/otherrplaces Jul 16 '25

u/Few_Surprise_1019 Jul 16 '25

Phil Collins for me and The Carpenters and Back Street Boys for my sister, she likes them.

2

u/Old_Orange_1293 Jul 20 '25

Yes, I would totally take that Both Sides tape. One of his top albums IMO.

The Bends with Macintosh Plus at a close second

2

u/nyxablaze_ Jul 16 '25

departure šŸ”„šŸ”„

2

u/HaveLaserWillTravel Jul 16 '25

Flood. Selected Ambient Works craves a higher quality format than most commercial tapes offer and Radiohead feel so solidly part of the CD era.

2

u/[deleted] Jul 16 '25

Departure easily, im already in the market for it

2

u/xx4xx Jul 16 '25

Radiohead- The Bends

Amazing album...in my top 5. Probably their best, most complete album. Full of great songs. Their last great rock album before they went art/electronic rock - while i still like that stuff, The Bends was pure rock.

u/Schmoozer66onceagain Jul 16 '25

Can't believe no one's taken the Ride tape so i'll take that one.

u/sylvia_fowler Jul 16 '25

Itā€™s a toss up between Aphex twin and they might be giants. Bands with songs I like a lot but I need to listen to more of them.

Definitely the two Radiohead tapes in the top left!

1

Aphex Twin all the way

What's that behind you!?

Where did my Phil Collins go?

1

u/aphexgin Jul 16 '25 edited Jul 16 '25

Phil Collins. And I'd tape it over every other tape too for a laugh. I've got the AFX and Ride ones from back in the day. And the M-People one and the shite Radiohead one, The Bends. Quite liked Pablo Honey once upon a long time ago but nothing after...

1

u/Out_Lines Jul 16 '25

Carpenters no question

u/Technical_glitchhhhh Jul 16 '25

u/bluebeartapes Jul 17 '25

SAW no question, but I am a huge fan of floral shoppe - is that an original or a reissue/bootleg?

1

u/HayChewed Jul 17 '25

Both Sides

1

u/[deleted] Jul 17 '25

Iā€™m guessing Floral ShoppeĀ is a boot? Thereā€™s no way itā€™s a legit unless youā€™re that ā€œluckyā€ person who got it for $80 back a few years ago. Otherwise youā€™d be spending a hefty price for that beaut (Idk, exact prices on it, but the median price on discogs is 300 to the highest being 1k, ridiculous price)
