Technology may have left them in the dust, but mixtapes will always have a special place in our hearts. Every person of a certain age remembers sitting in their room and spending hours trying to craft the perfect mixtape in order to win the affection of a special someone. And even if the love didn’t last, the mixtape and all of the songs on it would stay with you forever. So why not pay homage to the sonnet of the 1980s/1990s and get a mixtape tattoo? These mixtape tattoos remind us of a day gone by. Sure, the technology wasn’t nearly as convenient as what we have today, but through the lens of nostalgia the cassette tape becomes something magical. The people sporting these awesome mixtape tattoos know exactly what I’m talking about.
