  • Song is The Nocturnal House by Pretty Girls Make Graves off their 2006 album Élan Vital.
    The player is a Sony CMT-EX1 manufactured in August 2000. I bought it used at a local thrift store. The sound quality is very good for such a small unit! The speakers came with the device as well.

      🥰👱‍♀️ Retour Á La Maison 🐻👍
      Michka déteste dire au revoir à Masha et ne supporte pas qu'ils soient séparés. Pendant ce temps, d'autres habitants de la forêt se détendent dans la cour, ne sachant pas que ce paradis fragile est sur le point de s’effondrer quand Michka reçoit up appel téléphonique de Masha …

      Le Mircale De L'amour 🎬
      Masha aime les contes de fées et bien sûr, elle croit que chaque conte de fée devrait aboutir à une fin heureuse, même si rien ne contribue à cela! Michka espère encore gagner le cœur de sa charmante femelle. Il trouve une accienne gondole au fond du lac de la forêt. Michka décide de le restaurer et invitesa belle à un tour romantique! Personne ne s'attendait à ce que cette historie fasse parfaitement correspondre le nouveau hobby de Masha : théâtre de marionnettes.

    There's a few of these out there, though its more common for there to be a translucent door that moves out of the way. This is probably a better idea too, as it makes cleaning the tray easier.
    For those interested, here's some model numbers:
    Sony CMT-EX1 (that's this one, acc. to the description)
    PHILIPS MC235B/37 (I got this one)
