Cassette Store Day 2016: A celebration for cassette tapes enthusiasts all over Indonesia
Record Store Day is a larger part of physical records celebration, so why not Cassette Store Day. That was what Steve Rose thought in 2013. According to NME, the man who runs Sexbeat Label came out with this idea and reached out to Matt Flag from Suplex Cassettes and NME writer Jen Long and it eventually led to the International Cassette Store Day that will have its 3rd year run this year. In 2016, the International Cassette Store Day will fall on October 8 and 9 and Indonesia is one of the country which participates in the celebration.
