I lived through the 80s then, and am sometimes nostalgic for old stuff. I listen to a lot of synthwave now, and do appreciate the variable speed distortion on some tracks. But I also exclusively listen to digital music, where I get a (basically) 1:1 representation of what the artist produced. Getting further distortions from the medium isn't something I want or need.
