Mars Tapes in Manchester is the last shop in the UK that just sells music on cassette tapes in the UK, according to co-owner Alex Tadross.

Business is booming: “When the Oasis tour was announced we sold out of pretty much anything Oasis. Everything flew out," he says.

Also popular are cassettes of 80s music, in particular Kate Bush, which Mr Tadross says is probably because her music featured in the hit Netflix show Stranger Things.

“We get a mix of customers,” he says. “A lot of them are customers in their 20s, and teenagers, getting into it for first time, then a few people who had cassettes in their 40s and 50s and buy them for the nostalgic aspect.

"But the majority are under 30. We have a lot of teenagers coming with their parents."
