<p>The last link is up on my website too, plus some other tape weirdities from way back. <a href="https://robertafidora.com/news/blog/7100253/rewinding-cassettes-a-tape-miscellany" rel="nofollow" class="ellipsis" title="robertafidora.com/news/blog/7100253/rewinding-cassettes-a-tape-miscellany"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">robertafidora.com/news/blog/71</span><span class="invisible">00253/rewinding-cassettes-a-tape-miscellany</span></a> <a href="/tags/cassette/" rel="tag">#Cassette</a> <a href="/tags/cassettes/" rel="tag">#Cassettes</a> <a href="/tags/tape/" rel="tag">#Tape</a> <a href="/tags/tapes/" rel="tag">#Tapes</a> <a href="/tags/retro/" rel="tag">#Retro</a> <a href="/tags/music/" rel="tag">#Music</a> <a href="/tags/histodons/" rel="tag">#Histodons</a> <a href="/tags/musichistory/" rel="tag">#MusicHistory</a> <a href="/tags/musodon/" rel="tag">#Musodon</a></p>

<p>As I have now combined two accounts, I’m just pinning this here:</p><p>If you follow me because we both love music and particularly music on vinyl, then you may want to mute the <a href="/tags/retrocomputing/" rel="tag">#retrocomputing</a> hashtag. </p><p>If you follow me because we both love old computers and particularly the Commodore 64, then you may want to mute the <a href="/tags/vinyl/" rel="tag">#vinyl</a>, <a href="/tags/cassettes/" rel="tag">#cassettes</a> and <a href="/tags/tapes/" rel="tag">#tapes</a> hashtags. </p><p>Of course if you, like me, are passionate about both of those things, then we have achieved enlightenment together and should maybe get married.

I have lost a link and I'm hoping you can help me find it.<br><br>I think within the last month someone posted something about a tape archive or sample, I think it was an older website, maybe something that ran for just a few years and ended in 2002 or 2012, I think it was designed for 60-minute <a href="/tags/cassettes/" rel="tag">#cassettes</a>, audio and inserts available for download.

<p>“Chicago-based <a href="/tags/music/" rel="tag">#music</a> superfan Aadam Jacobs has been <a href="/tags/recording/" rel="tag">#recording</a> the concerts he attends since the 1980s, amassing an archive of over 10,000 tapes. Now 59, Jacobs knows that these <a href="/tags/cassettes/" rel="tag">#cassettes</a> are going to degrade over time, so he agreed to let volunteers from the Internet Archive, the nonprofit digital library, digitize the tapes.”</p><p><a href="https://techcrunch.com/2026/04/13/thousands-of-rare-concert-recordings-are-landing-on-the-internet-archive-listen-now/" rel="nofollow" class="ellipsis" title="techcrunch.com/2026/04/13/thousands-of-rare-concert-recordings-are-landing-on-the-internet-archive-listen-now/"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">techcrunch.com/2026/04/13/thou</span><span class="invisible">sands-of-rare-concert-recordings-are-landing-on-the-internet-archive-listen-now/</span></a></p>
