The humble cassette was a core part of my upbringing. Creating and sharing mixtapes a great way of signalling affection. I treasure the few times it happened, because as a nerd with social anxiety my interactions with the opposite sex developed a lot later than most people. Forgive me: Oh Frances, how beautiful you were, Mixed Dinosaur Jr tape I did share, You returned another, so eclectic, My crush on you fades electric.
