[@samuelweinstein4405]

I loved this, in game. It was such a weird juxtaposition to be listening to banging 80s tunes while cannibals stalk you through the forest.

[@clarkmeyer7211]

was cool to listen to this while taking down a mutant. made me imagine my own montage of going for glory in battle.

[@argentin2306]

What a phrase

[@JoanSlugXAkaJerkyBogard]

If Is Weird for you to murder those loudy bastards with this banger on, then YOU'RE not a legend.

[@koolgoose]

There is an achievement called "Gabe fan" if you collect all the cassette tapes, and the creator of this music is of course Gabe Castro. Nice!

[@gabecastromusic]

haha, wait are you joking or not? I can't tell

Man, Gabe Castro sure has a good tastes of music from the 80s and 90s, so he made his own. And it's officially GOOD!

[@SzymonNon]

i have been listening to this song unironically for over a year now...

[@09vette]

This was by far my favorite cassette in game to listen to

[@ianblake8450]

Before the yacht, I would cower in a treehouse and sneak everywhere I went... now, I go spelunking with no armor and go out of my way to 1v5 cannibals. God bless you, Gabe. (Shoutout to the real nibs still playing in 2020)

[@thefakeichthyologist--6337]

I'm still playing to this very day because of listening to cassette 1

[@Bendytube72]

Still playing in 2023

[@hawksgaming2204]

This music is so good it almost makes you forget your trapped on an island with a bunch of cannibals and mutant monstrosity’s

[@coolestyoutubereveralive123]

no. THEY are trapped with you LOL

[@mahamann7734]

I love how listening to music gives stamina

[@Mercury0001]

This is so motivational. Really glad they took these tapes into the game. Bashing skulls while having a recorder taped to a tree is one of the most badass achievements you can get.

[@sven7ksrg]

This has become the anthem of my life on the island.

[@ursus4886]

Imagine if you've lived on the island for 2 months,you feel lonely and you find this cassette. Life has a purpose now baby

[@hope6571]

My absolute favorite jam in the Forrest. In my cliff hanging hut in the middle of the night with door locked, sitting on the balcony watching the sea and chilling.

[@karkoyeet8062]

honestly the feeling when im in the caves scared of the 2 mutants and the cannibals cuz they all noticed me then putting in this casette then killin them all with the chainsaw is one of the best feelings ever in this game

[@MukGames]

When I first heard the beginning of this song I thought "Footloose" and "Take on Me"

[@Leon_der_Luftige]

"Don't lose my number" by Phil Collins. The beat is a lot like this. ;)

[@TechFreakMacBook]

I heard "Love is a battlefield"

[@keitra666]

MukGames well it is from the 90's

[@RadialSkid]

"I'm Free (Heaven Helps the Man)" by Kenny Loggins also starts with a similar beat.

[@donp.8331]

same, but i heard another song with the similar beginning. no idea what it was called

[@leon53580]

The best of all cassettes

[@ohod1471]

The addition to the tapes are a necessity to make the game just a little hopeful. Never listening to music for weeks and you find a casset tape and start jammin out. Then you stay to realize that you can do this. You can save your boy

[@captainofclashofclans2681]

i love this music

[@TheBorf]

When I popped this in the cassette player in The Forest and heard this for the first time I just started running as fast as I could through the woods. I felt like I *NEEDED* to.

[@Feirund]

You're a legend, Gabe. I bought the Forest solely because I saw you as the composer. I discovered you in the Vagrant and you did a splendid job in both games. That the games themselves are both great must be no coincidence either.

[@theaudiosurfer4956]

I first found Cassette 1 in my most recent play session, and i could have fucking sworn "Take on Me" was about to play

[@Fuar11]

omg same. If you have played Metal Gear Solid 5 you know the feeling. ;)

This track made my days chopping down trees in the middle of a cannibal infested forest. Sublime

[@GameElement64]

The music I played when I rushed from my base to save my friends from cannibals and 3 mutants. My most glorious & triumphant memory of this game!

[@JonnyBoyOfficial]

Gabe, I NEED to know, what software did you use to make this and what instrument is the synth at the beginning?

[@harrywakefield8531]

Time for an 80's montage

[@rainbowdash9139]

[@mr.francezu1330]

The begining of the song always reminds me of "Take on me"

[@tenebraattila5746]

It was a great moment, when I found the walkman and the cassette, and it totally surprised me that there is music on it instead of a recorded speech. And of course, I started playing this when I attacked cannibals to take revenge because of their nightmarish night raid. :D

[@samred007]

This was so awesome in game when I found it, camping out on the cliff side, no forest, just looking out at the sunset with this was taped to a stick playing next to a fire and tent.

[@Dankalank]

That melody that begins at 0:28 gets stuck in my head all the time! Is that a keyboard or synth or what?

[@wladislawshamin5447]

I think there is guitar drums bass and everything else you hear is likely keyboard including 0:28 but i may be wrong.

[@thegatesofsleep]

Could be synth or electric keyboard. Either or will produce that sound.

[@gerardolopezcastrejon1552]

It’s a synth

[@Unnamed_User]

This was the first i found in the forest, and that night i was stranded on an island with no materials to make shelters or other things, staying with my friend, and i played this music. The feel was just perfect and energetic.
