"The cassette tape was a revolution. Cheap, portable, and reusable, this small plastic rectangle changed music history. Make your own tapes! Trade them with friends! Tape over the ones you don't like! The cassette tape upended pop culture, creating movements and uniting communities. Marc Masters explores the disruptive history and influence of cassettes in his book "High Bias: The Distorted History of the Cassette Tape," charting the journey from the invention of the cassette in the early 1960s to its Walkman-led domination in the 1980s, from decline at the hands of compact discs to resurgence among independent music-makers. And he reveals how for so many, tapes meant freedom–to create, to invent, to connect."
Marc Masters is a music journalist whose work has appeared in NPR, the Washington Post, Pitchfork, Rolling Stone, and Bandcamp Daily. He is author of No Wave.
