Are you bored listening to algorithmically curated digital audio streamed from soulless apps on your transistor radio-like lame phone? Then time travel back to the roaring analog '80s, in a modern way, with this cool new yet quite nostalgia-inspired ION Retro Glow Boombox. Like the resurgence of vinyl records and VHS tapes, it was inevitable that audio cassette tapes, one of the first truly portable ways to carry around and play your favorite music, would eventually find their way back from the dead too, and this 1980s party in a box is a fun way to rediscover them.

This cool retro boombox fuses modern day and classic audio technologies all-in-one. It features a translucent housing that illuminates with colorful LED party lights that sync to the music, two powerful full-range speakers with deep bass, a cassette tape player/recorder that can record from whatever is still on the AM/FM radio wasteland, the built-in microphone, or from an external source, 2 analog VU meters, a long-lasting rechargeable battery (no need to keep buying a ton of D batteries), wireless Bluetooth to stream from your boring digital devices, AUX input, USB and SD Card playback, separate bass and treble controls to manually fine-tune your sound, and a carrying handle to take your music on-the-go. Hmm, it's still way cooler to hold it up on your shoulder though and blow your eardrums out while taking a stroll.

So dust off that old collection of audio cassette tapes from your favorite old bands, pick up some of the newly released ones that keep popping up more and more frequently, or just buy some blank tapes to make your very own old-school mix tapes to share with confused others. It obviously includes fast forward and rewind, but you'll still have to supply your own pencil or fingertip to fix and rewind the tape back into the cassette when it gets yanked out or eaten. 🀘
