Type Four
It’s been a couple of months since my last post. I had told myself I’d do my best to post regularly but, in my defence, I’ve been hard at work — today I’m proud to present… Type Four!
You may have noticed a cassette on the desk. The idea was that I’d have Tidal update it live showing what I was listening to and the design changes depending on the track.
The more I worked on it the more I thought how cool it’d be if I could put it into a deck and actually play it. And so, after several months plugging away, that’s exactly what it became: Type Four, a cassette deck for your phone.
The beta is out now and it coincides with Cassette Week. It’s free to download with a small one-off purchase for unlimited tapes and more design options — have a look at typefour.app.
I’ve found slowing down has helped me appreciate the music more, and rather than endless playlists I put more care into what goes onto a tape. There’s also something magical about putting a tape into the deck and playing it. Download it and see for yourself :)
