Bleachers’ Jack Antonoff is writing a book about 90s CD culture

  • Dork News Desk
  • March 23, 2016
Jack Antonoff is writing a book about 90s CD culture, according to The New York Times.



Titled Record Store, the book will be published by Simon & Schuster, and is expected to be release in 2017.



The work will focus on chains such as Tower Records and “pay tribute to the cherished, and endangered, cultural institution.”



“It seems like the nerdy, record-collector type owns the conversation,” Antonoff explained. “But that wasn’t my experience growing up, and it wasn’t the experience of a lot of people I know. [The book will be] the opposite of an old, crotchety, ‘things-were-better,’ dusty book about vinyl.”



He also predicts we’ll eventually see nostalgia towards CDs. “We’re right in the middle of this moment when we think that time period was a big, weird joke, but it was how most of us discovered music. These are already antique artifacts. At some point there will be a tipping point where these things are going to be so important.”
