I love the effort the person running this channel is going through to prove that cassettes actually sound amazing
TY
Stop pretending that this digital rip is a cassette tape and stop pretending it sounds above alright. "Amazing", ffs.
@@timmya4000yeah
@@timmya4000it literally sounds the same as streaming, idk what all the fuss about
what about vinyl?
People underestimate how good analog can really sound when it's preserved. This is so warm and full feeling with a crazy punch.
I grew up with cassettes in the eighties and nineties and then I was a CD user, and I can tell you that cassettes, it doesn't matter if they are analogues, are clearly inferior in quality, and that is the reason why they disappeared.
@@9defebrerodel79 I listen to all formats; CD, vinyl, tape, digital - I just love tapes! :' )
@@9defebrerodel79 I would agree with you on Type I Tape if it's a low quality tape...Type IV Metal Tape, you couldn't tell the difference between a CD and Metal Tape on high end gear.
Vv@@bobbyjones1055vvv
warm = reduced high frequency content.
Appreciate all the kind comments. Cassette ain't dead!!
The mineral sound, even with the best DAC can t be better than a tape. ❤
I'm sure that this Cassette sound is way more Nirvanistic than those re-poop thingies
Re poop thingies is the best term iv ever heard to describe them, bravo
была такая кассета в детстве) тогда просто было модно, только во взрослом возрасте распробовал этот депресняк
They want to kill thr butterflies 😂
Probably the tape most responsible for my hearing loss. I used to listen to this over and over on my walkman when I was in high school. It was thirty years ago tonight, December 30, 1993, that I saw Nirvana in concert at the Forum in Inglewood. The show is available on UA-cam to watch but nothing will ever match being there. The feeling of excitement in the air was palpable. This was actually Nirvana's first full scale arena tour of America and people were pumped to see their heroes. It seemed Kurt had slayed his demons and things were all clear for the band to dominate the music scene for the foreseeable future. It was tragic that it would only take a few months for the whole thing to unravel. Losing Kurt felt like losing a brother. I'll always feel a little tug on the heart listening to their music, but I can't see a point in life when I stop listening.
everyone with hearing loss are basically guinea pigs for people in the future, since we listen to stuff at a loud ENOUGH volume and use earplugs at concerts
Beste Album von Nir van a ❤
I had a chance to see them in Toronto, was offered a free ticket and turned it down because I was too "death metal" at the time. Regret does not even begin to describe the feeling.
I played this album over and over too what a time to be alive
Good morning. Gotta love Nirvana ❤❤❤😂😂😂🎉😢😮😅😊
This sounds way better than the remastered editions.
yes the drums sound a-bit more crisp
yes! sounds like it did when I first got the tape, 👌💚
They don’t understand, you can’t remaster perfection
wtf it's wrong with you
The remasters are great as well just not as raw and broad as the original sound was
I reckon the Nevermind original cassette has some special magic quality, over other formats. First heard it on the primary school playground age 11 in '92, and was immediately hooked, like the baby on the cover
I was 8 in 91! I miss the 90s. Gen X forever
Me too! In South Africa 🇿🇦
@@richardthompson5810 holy shit, I don’t know why but I thought that might be the case. Where about? Imagine it’s the same primary school?
@@irongroot7914nah f that hipster crap I'm a Gen Xer 90s kid
Hehe, i was so pissed in 1994 in south germany, when Nirvana had his last concert in Munich, its only 1,5 hours away from my hood, but i was too young to get a ticket, hrrr. Today im so happy that Im born in '81 and grew up in this free and incredibly cool time. We were freer than a bird and the people were all so friendly.
Great job. Better sound quality.
Still have the original cassette at home--this, In Utero, Unplugged, and bunch others. Dammit, this reminds me of great times. Thanks for uploading this!
This was the best era hands down. There will never be any other band that will come close to this era... ever!!!
@@ryanbeaton7351 imagine buying brett and bobo
this sounds just like i remember it’s supposed to :) thanks a lot dude!
This is how i heard it originally in 1991, cassette tape. It's also how I remember it as well.
Just posted this one as well.

@@bobbyjones1055 you are such a blessing dude 😭❤️🔥🪷
Gravadora: gasta milhões remasterizado um album de 30 anos atrás para os fãs ouvirem a música com o máximo de qualidade possível
Os fãs: vou ouvir o original mesmo sujo e mal polido por que acho melhor
(Brincadeiras a parte o álbum em fita tem uma qualidade muito boa apesar de antigo)
@@bobbyjones1055 the video is unavailable
dude why is this so much better than i've ever heard this song holy shit
Album was recorded on analog tape, mixed on an analog console and then duplicated right to cassette tape (all analog in the process). Obviously capturing it digitally and posted to UA-cam but it was captured on a higher end cassette deck and edited in a DAW (iZotope RX 7 Advanced). What you're hearing is a solid cassette tape rip.
@@bobbyjones1055thank you sir
classic album! Love to hear it every time. Anyone from 2024?
Los 2024 no usan redes sociales todavía...

👍
We are still here.
I listened to this album religiously in my teens. Hearing it in its original glory here and seeing all of the original album artwork brought back a flood of sweet memories. Thanks, uploader!
Sounds very raw! Bass is booming and is very dynamic, guitar is even scratchier than latter versions I've heard. The dynamic inconsistencies and depth are the most prevalent on Lithium and Polly. Very alive and raw and I love it! Thanks for sharing.
yeah the guitar is very scratching love it
scooped on mids, basically. i like that too.
Thank you for putting this out ❤ born in 87 and now hooked on this tape. Feelings flowing, tears dropping, touched by the rawness ❤️🔥
🎉
Happy birthday, dear Kurt
Yes
As a Nirvana fan who discovered them in 2015 when I was 14, thank you. I’ve wanted to hear these albums in their original formats from the 90s just to hear the difference. There’s no bad version of this album, but damn there’s something special about this one
Greetings youngster, you have great taste!
It's the perfect combination of high quality audio with the lower quality bits that make it really sound like grunge
There is no bits no 1,s and zeros like digital has. Analog sound is not limited to resolution
@@michaelorton9887 I meant bits as in parts
@@michaelorton9887 it is bits because its a recording of tape thats made into an mp3 and put on youtube through binary code
@@themysticfedora This tape was captured using a Steinberg UR22C at 176.4kHz/32bit and edited in a DAW (iZotope RX 7 Advanced). The files where then converted in Adobe Elements to AAC 320kbps. Point being, the source is not an MP3.
@@bobbyjones1055 I don't think uploading AAC or anything lossy to youtube is optimal as it reencodes the data to opus for instance, check the "stats for nerds"
I love Nirvana so such bro thanks for making this
This is like a personal time-machine to 1992 for me.
Beautiful. For whatever reason as a kid even though I owned both cd and cassette I found myself still making mix tapes from my Nirvana cds 😂
because cds dont degrade with use or time.
They do, look up "disc rot"@@TheAtomicPunkLmao
@@TheAtomicPunkLmaooh, they absolutely do. i have several old CDs (usually CDRs) that have oxidized and become unlistenable.
@@yaskeepants thats preventable. there is no way to listen to a cassette without losing top and bottom end, and no matter how careful you are with it it will degrade with time. anything can get damaged if you're careless with it, but cds do not degrade from mere use.
compleatliiiiiiii hungrryYi
Sometimes I forget that this album released on cassette. I was fortunate enough to have a CD player back in the day and I bought a super early copy of this album on CD (one of the first 100,000 copies that's missing "Endless, Nameless"). I've never heard this album from an analog source before, but I gotta say this sounds excellent, even with UA-cam's compression. Signal sounds a bit hot, but it could just be my phone's speakers causing the distortion. Thank you for posting this.
It’s was the first 50,000 copies that didn’t feature EN
@Spooky_D Oh nice! I didn't know it was such a small number. It's not like the rare copies missing EN are worth any more than the other copies, but it's a cool piece of history for sure.
Omg thank you for the chapters! ❤
this was amazing. listened thru and thru
UA-cam stains the sound, but you can still hear how fine that casette mix sounds. I rediscovered this album after obtaining a tape from 91
This is the best rip I've ever seen. Not everyone even realizes how good analog can look if it's done correctly. When most people digitize audio cassettes, it's usually sped up a bit and doesn't sound right. Sure there is editing, but I'm sure the majority of people don't know how to do that.
Thank you for the kind words, I do my very best when I capture these cassette tapes.
@@bobbyjones1055 How do you get the playback speed to behave?

I was 22 when this came out. Better than any remaster. Raw and gritty love it!!!❤ RIP KURT

-8 yo was I. absolutely mind blowing how good it sounds
THIS is how I remember Nevermind. Warm tape saturation coming through my crappy Walkman earphones. Obviously I’m biased by nostalgia but man it sound so much better this way
I wonder whether it has to something to do with the genre. I think that overall punk, hardcore, grunge records sound amazing when they have this lo-fi aesthetic to it. Like, my favourite "heavy" album ever, Bleach03's "起爆剤" is like this by default. I have it on CD so I can hear this beautiful dirt in best quality, but the production itself is very purposefully dirty, raw and messy, which I love. I feel like it can add a lot to a heavy record, but there are other styles that I think sound much better in high quality. For example Pink Floyd, I have some cassettes and it sounds very nice but if I were to choose one way to listen to them it would be high quality, because that was kinda what they were going for in their style. I think this added rawness and saturation adds a lot to punk but not for everything
as someone who owns nirvana's nevermind on cassette, i can confirm this is what it sounds like
🤘🏽🤘🏽
@@bobbyjones1055 can you do static age by misfits next if you have it? or famous monsters?
Thanks man. This sounds a lot better than all of the versions on streaming services.
듣자마자 어마어마한 차이를 느꼈습니다.. 바로 플레이리스트로 가져가겠습니다. 감사합니다 형님..🥲🥲
This sounds way better than other versions. It has that sound!!!! I can't explain it.
finally original Nevermind sound :)
It's like nature, if it ain't broke, why fix it?
I prefer my music before it's been "cleaned up", compressed, re-engineered, or messed with in any way, other than what the artist wanted, at the time, etc.✌🏼🏴🇬🇧
I think I can, it’s like that crackle of a needle on vinyl. You can’t explain what it is but it’s the same with cassettes.
It’s just…there.
And you all heard that crackle noise in your head….i fucking love music!
I wish everyone in here that found this an amazing life!
I love how warm sounding this is compared to all the digital versions. Everything feel more present, the bass drum feels like a kick to the forehead and I’m here for! The guitars have some more growl/low end .Vocals/the sound in general are much more open and crisp too!
The bass is perfect too
i've have the master tape flacs for both nevermind and in utero, the drums are absolutely incredible to listen to, especially compared to the versions on streaming services.
What a ridiculous word salad comment in which you contradict yourself multiple times. Warm or crisp, make your damn mind up.
@@DamnDealDone warm audio sound- usually you’re going to hear a lean to bass/lower end
Crisp- very clear sounding
I don’t think that’s a contradiction. I think the cassette audio is more bassy(in a good way) and you can easily hear the vocals, drums, bass, and guitars are not all mushed together. This is a causal UA-cam comment not a dissertation. No need to be so hostile.
@@Helsinki40268 if you say so.
This cassette audio kicks ass. Raw and full of Bass, just the way I like it.
This is how I remember this album sounding. Thanks for uploading this. Most of the remastered versions of the iconic grunge rock albums from the 90s do not capture the energy these songs are meant to have.
The way I first heard it, the way I’ll always hear it
Cassette truly does hit different. I realized that listening to an old cassette of In Utero. My friend had a car with a busted stereo that only played the right channel. So we cranked it higher of course. One night we were driving to a camp out by a lake and this guy was just zooming down these dirt roads in the woods at night, must've been around 50mph. I was high off my ass on a thc gummy and he put on In Utero and cranked it loud, I'm talking louder than the sound of his car speeding thru a gravel road. I'd heard all the songs on that album countless times before and yet In Utero has never, NEVER sounded so visceral and heavy as it did that night. I was literally almost a little scared, the music felt that intense. Incredible, the power of this music. Never underestimate a good cassette pushed to its limits.
You were high and that's why it hit you so deep.
@@stefanodegerome5586 yes but that's just one factor
Songs that I heard a long time ago, I still remember every time I come home from work, sit next to the music player and drink a glass of whiskey. Suddenly all the fatigue from work disappeared. Thank you for sharing this music
Listening to this on a bus in East Sussex having come back from a cancer check. Sounds amazing
Still love it 2024
What a sound, what a quality, what a masterpiece.........! I am listening the whole album the second time this week since i found this version!! Thank you, this is a journey to my youth
Genau das Bro❤
❤
Every time I here the SLTS intro i have to stop what I'm doing to appreciate it. It still catches me off guard, and I'm still in awe, 30+ years later
more than a feeling by Boston
THANK YOU for preservation of such wonderful music in it's original sounds
This is how I first heard the band on tape not cd. The great days.
Absolute masterpiece of an album, and this is coming from a NYC hip hop head, love this album!
Also a hip hop head, but I’d ride or die for this album.
Thx for upload😄
Omg the bassssssssss 🤤
The tape gives the chorus effect on the guitar a little extra warble. Chef’s kiss!
this is an amazing playlist to work to🖤! thanks man😁
Wow. Great quality. I used to have the cassette but not anymore. Very nostalgic 🤘
This is how i listend to it. I know that sounds crazy, but it does sound different. And super nostalgic.
7, 8, and 9 of the list is such a good trio back to back so enjoyable

Se não for o melhor
Afortunado de haber tenido uno y vivir esa época !! Gracias por esto amigo !
I still have cassette tapes and still listen to them and vinyl and VHS player. Can't go wrong with old stuff . Apart from needing so much room
Amazing, thanks for loading this. We lived on tapes in the 80's and 90's
RAW and beautiful just like it was and always should be! Thank you.
This album is so good and so popular its trendy to hate on it. I got hooked on it as a kid in the 90s. Every winter my mom would drive my friends and I up to the snow to go snowboarding and we'd listen to Nevermind, The Doors first 3 albums, In Utero, and Disareli Gears to get in the mood to take on the mountain.
Nirvana is the only band that I absolutely love every album. Once I play one of their album there's no stopping it until the end!!
woooww this is so nostalgic it sounds exactly how i remember it sounded, thanks for posting
I remember when I was younger listening to this whole album on repeat along with many others😏
When I was 12 I stole this cassette from my parents box of "shitty music cassettes" and it completely changed my life. It lived under my pillow for years next to a bunch of others I got the same way because I listened to them with my headphones to sleep every night. I can't see the image of this one without having flashbacks to those first moments of feeling that the music was incredible :') I didn't even understood the lyrics, because I didn't speak English back then, but omfg how I loved this!!!
Este álbum es una obra maestra.
Thank you man
This is how NIRVANA should sound. Thank you Robert.
I think flanger effects on this tape just sound magical😇
The only thing that comes close to this kind of experience is like when you have the cassette and you wear it so thin that it splits. And then you get a new copy on cassette. No different than replacing old vinyl. Not only does it hold true in that regard, but the pure analog start to finish process used for this produces it's own majesty in and of itself. Thank you so much for posting this.
worse when you take the cassette out and 3 feet of tape follows behind it ! get out a pencil 😊
And pray it’s not twisted af
Biggest difference to me seems that the kick and bass seems to be more prominent than the digital versions/remasters. I've only heard CD/digital versions of this album, I always thought it sounded a bit sterile, but on cassette with the added warmth it seems to be better suited
the bitrate increase is wild, direct cassette rips have so much more bass
super raw...thanks for sharing!
I want my Walkman back😊!!!
Un son plus organique. Je comprends maintenant pourquoi je ne retrouve pas le son de mon adolescence.
i love it even more than the remastered version but territorial pissings sounds so weird
true
It's pitched down, idk if that's a slower tape speed or something
Cassette players originally only played one side at a time. Eventually the technology developed to include an auto-reverse mechanism that would switch to the other side of the tape without having to physically remove and flip the tape over. With continuous play this mechanism would put strain on the tape and effect the sound quality of songs at the end of side 1 and more noticeably the beginning of side 2.
@@lastvestiges thats cool i didn't know that
Este para mi el mejor album de nirvana y este año se cumplen 30 años que ya no esta entre nosotros kurt todavia no se puede creer era un grande de la musica pero el legado que dejo pasaran generaciones y siempre esta vivo ❤❤❤❤
Donde esta el diablo ese....? para donde se fue?
Wow! This is amazing!
Sounds great Thanks for the cassette version , great idea
sounds great!
Favourite band to ever exist. Use to play this as a 14 year old and just listen for hours with my walkman :) best times
I was 31 when this came out, it was “new” music for me then, hard to believe that was 33 years ago🤦🏻♂️… it goes way to fast!
Fantastic ! Thank you Bro! Warm regards from 🇵🇱
This is epic, thank you.
I remember when my brother got this Cassette. It was like magic in a box. Kurt is one of the most intelligent song writers of the last 40 years. He knew how to grab you and pull you in, then swing you around and make you feel so much.
Read his journal if ya wanna get that feeling again 30 years after he left this world. And still blowing my mind. Whole nutha level!
Thanks for posting this. I always say there CAN'T be enough NIRVANA on YOU-TUBE.
Love this album.
Love it!!
I was born in 91 and I still remember the cassettes sounding better. Thank you for this. I didn't realize I needed it until I started listening this morning.
I love cassette tapes. It brings me back into my youth!
Double YA'
Wish i was there im still in my youth listening to nirvana through youtube lol. I still have cds tho
@@therobloxexplorer1249 In those days, we called these Nirvana-Streams "MTV" or "VIVA" and a .mp3 (better flac) was on those fucking casette tapes ⚠
Though i was born one day after Kurt’s death i always feel very close to Nirvana.
and this album is my most favorite one. ☺️
His music is timeless and will be touching lives for A VERY LONG TIME.
Suena espectacular gracias geniiioooo❤!!!
man Ive been waiting for people to upload the cassette versions of albums I love, I used to love cassettes even worn
it’s funny how this is actually nostalgic- this is the way I remember it.
This sounds exactly like when I would BLAST this on my Bose studio speakers. Listening to it was like being in a concert.
I first heard “Lithium “ on my Bose car speakers when it played on the local college radio station. I fell in love with Nirvana immediately !!!!!!
