Cassette Futurism is just name of genre like Steampunk, Cyberpunk or Dieselpunk

You’re telling me that a picture of a regular steam locomotive fits into Steampunk, or that a regular 18-wheeler fits into Dieselpunk, and I disagree.

This ad for a regular technological device of the cassette era does not fit into cassette futurism.

Well, There's no true defenition of cassette futurism or IDK ¯\_(ツ)_/¯. I think any tech or media which resembles or from 70s or 80s fit this community. Feel free to post what you think is though.
