From dusty shellacs and tapes to 12” vinyl, CDR and mp3's, countless storage formats have been hailed as the future of recorded sound – some of them going on to acquire cult status for their unique sonic and tactile qualities.

Watch Hatcha, Clams Casino, Greg Wilson, Hermanos Pizarro and journalist Joe Muggs discuss the storage of sound.
