Cassette Store Day 2022

Cassette Store Day is happening this year again, on Saturday October 15, and many albums are being released in the nostalgic format. Below are a few picks, a bit coincidentally all from the KiliKiliVilla label (which puts a lot of energy in tape releases), as other recommended titles didn't seem available to order online at time of writing.

Find the impressive full list on the official Cassette Store Day site. All items should be available for pre-order, and they can be found in participating shops on October 15.
