I have alway enjoy music and i have no preference for gender, like  football i have no preference for specific team i just love a good match. Back in the nineties before the ipod and mp3s became popular my favorite music medium were tapes and i recorded a good bunch of them from my favorite radio station as well as my favorite cds, i alway enjoy picking songs from albums and mixing them in my tapes, my prefered brand was maxell xll  the one the made on 60 minutes and 90 minutes and of course the 100 minutes as well. I believe that those as well as the tdks were some of the best tapes ever made . Couple weeks ago i went through my old tapes and could not help to feel nostalgic about those times when i recorded them. As i hold one of those puppies in my hand some weird sensation ran through my body, and it was a very nice sensation. The tape was a maxell xll 100 minutes it is black and it felt heavy and i thought to myself " whao! They used to truely made well crafted stuff in the old days and it was very sad for me to think that they won't make those babies again. I have become a collector of tapes boomboxes, cassette decks and vinyl for many reason; the quality of the sound on vinyl and cassettes was amazing at least to me and i know that there are many people like me out there that know what im talking about. I have couple of jvcs boomboxes( a pc-v88 and a pc-x500)  from the late eighties and early nineties and i love them, they are nothing but my babies,  i clean them all the time and i play my tapesn on them a lot, i have develope a kind of obsession and really enjoy it. I own and ipod touch and i admit that they are amazing devices but i have found myself at time when im listening my playlist that there is a kind of emptiness-and as a shoveallthis musicuptoyourass without soul- feeling . Compare to when i sit down at my home in from of my tape-vinyl-cd collection and turn on my marantz receiver and see that beautifull blue that my marantz emits as well as my jvc boom box and that beautifull red-orange- green lcd display i just feel good and full of live (and i have not even play a tape or vinyl or cd yet!). When i put the first tape on ( lately i have been listening to Dire Straits- Brothers in arms,8 Radiohead- Ok computer as well as Muddy Waters- folk singer. The last one on a mobil fidelity version) i feel alive and i forget about the problems of this mundane world and i'm transpoted to a place call " I'm hapy as hell and i don't give a damn" .  I dont get this kind of sensation when im using my ipod. Maybe im become an oldtimer ( im in no way calling myself an "old school" because  i think that that word is way overuse and it had lost is true meaning). Or maybe something good about life has been found by my soul and have not been able to digest well yet or may maybe just maybe my tapes and my boomboxes have become my true bhudas and the have show me the "light" i dont know what it is all i know is that I love my babies i allways will and i want yo be buried wit them so when i go to hell i can tell the devil that the party os about to star "boys".
