One day, disc rot will render your CD collection useless and those MP3s will be corrupted. And we all know streaming services will never pay artists what they deserve. The solution? Magnetic tape—in addition to vinyl, of course. So dust off that boombox! International Cassette Store Day is upon us. Fueled in large part by millennial nostalgia, the audiocassette has enjoyed a renaissance of late, as many bands choose to release albums on the medium. Streetlight Records marks this UK-spawned holiday—now its seventh year—by offering 20 percent off all used cassettes.

Cassette Store Day
Sat, 10am, Free
Streetlight Records, San Jose
