We Are Rewind has announced a Pink Floyd Edition of its WE-001 portable cassette player, presented as a themed box set built around The Dark Side of the Moon. The package includes a pre-recorded cassette of the album, remastered for high-quality cassette release and exclusive to this edition.
A cassette player built around a classic album
The WE-001 Pink Floyd Edition is designed as a modern tribute to one of the most recognizable album releases in rock history. Both the portable player and the supplied cassette follow the visual language associated with The Dark Side of the Moon, giving the set a clear collector-oriented identity rather than simply adding a logo to an existing product.
The included tape is a key part of the release. We Are Rewind says The Dark Side of the Moon has been specially remastered on high-quality cassette for this limited edition, and that this cassette is exclusive to the box set. That makes the package as much about the physical album experience as it is about the hardware itself.
The announcement arrives at a time when cassette sales have been rising again worldwide, driven by collectors, nostalgia and renewed interest in tangible music formats. For listeners who want the ritual of handling a tape without giving up every modern convenience, the WE-001 Pink Floyd Edition aims to bridge those two worlds.
Modern features in a retro portable format
Although the WE-001 is styled around the cassette era, its feature set is more contemporary than a vintage portable player. The unit uses an aluminum body and metal buttons, and We Are Rewind describes the design as optimized for high-fidelity cassette playback with a dedicated headphone amplifier developed specifically for tape listening.
Wireless listening is supported through Bluetooth 5.1, allowing the player to connect to compatible headphones, speakers and soundbars. For wired listening, the WE-001 also includes a 3.5 mm headphone output, preserving the traditional portable cassette-player experience.
Power comes from an integrated rechargeable battery, with playback time specified at up to 12 hours. Transport controls include forward and rewind buttons, keeping operation close to the familiar cassette layout while removing the need for disposable batteries.
Recording and playback specification
The WE-001 Pink Floyd Edition is not limited to playback of the supplied album tape. A line-in recording function allows users to create mixtapes, and the player can also be used for voice recordings when paired with a compatible microphone. That feature gives the device a practical link to the original appeal of cassette as a recordable format.
For audio performance, the player is specified with an improved frequency response of 30 Hz to 14.5 kHz at ±3 dB. We Are Rewind also highlights the unit’s high-quality sound reproduction and cassette-focused amplification as part of the design brief.
A matching belt clip is also offered by We Are Rewind for listeners who want the complete portable retro look. The clip is positioned as a complementary accessory rather than a core specification of the box set.
Collector positioning and availability
The Pink Floyd Edition is presented as a limited box set rather than a standard color variant. Its appeal rests on the combination of themed hardware, the exclusive remastered cassette and the enduring status of The Dark Side of the Moon as a complete album experience.
