Remember those heady days when you carried a giant stereo radio cassette player around with you?
It wasn’t just because you wanted your music with you, the style of the stereo and the looks were a personal choice that reflected the you of the era. It was always something aspirational, longed for, coveted.
The giant 80s ghetto blaster or the sleek looking 90s boombox both strived to convey a style and an attitude to reflect that of their owner.
Now, some [ insert number of choice ] years later, they represent a part of life often longed for. Nostagia pulls us back towards the things we had from “those days” – or perhaps the things we always wanted or dreamed about owning but never could.
Well now’s your chance!
You’ll find an ever growing list of glorious nostalgic ghetto blasters and boomboxes here, all of which have that certain something. The something that pulls us back there. The something that feeds a need. That’s retro!
Is it right to call it a need? Some would disagree. Do you?
We’ll be talking about our newly listed models and the renovations to bring them back to their glory days. We’ll be sharing our thoughts on them, how they sound, how they make us feel, will you join us? What do you think? Let us know in the comments, or find us on social media.
