From romantic love notes to everyday family updates, the exhibition reveals how these humble cassettes captured emotions and moments that letters or calls simply couldn\u2019t.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe\u2019d sit around the tape recorder like it was breaking news,\u201d recalls Bradford\u2019s Asaf Hussain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\"><em><strong>\u201cMy mum wanted every detail &#8211; who was sick, who was visiting. For us kids, it was just hearing Dad\u2019s voice. It was like he was right there with us.\u201d<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For many, sending tape letters was not only practical, but cheaper than international calls, and a way to speak freely. Bradford\u2019s Asma Mirza remembers the shy beginnings of a romance through secret cassette exchanges.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThere was no cordless phone, and I couldn\u2019t even say hello in front of my family. So Asim sent me a tape and told me, \u2018Tell me what\u2019s in your heart.\u2019 I kept those tapes locked away like precious treasures.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.asianexpress.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Tape-LettersTape-Letters-curator-Wajid-Yaseen_\u00a9David-Lindsay-2_25-1024x683.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-51936\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The project was dreamed up by Modus Arts, who have been uncovering this hidden audio archive since 2018. Director Wajid Yaseen discovered his own family\u2019s cassette history and soon found hundreds of others across the UK sharing similar stories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cIt\u2019s like sonic archaeology &#8211; digging through memory, migration, culture, and the power of human connection,\u201d says Wajid. \u201cIt shows how deeply people want to communicate, no matter where they are in the world.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Shanaz Gulzar, Creative Director of Bradford 2025, added: \u201cI remember sitting with my family, recording messages to relatives I\u2019d never met. Sometimes the tapes came back mixed with Culture Club songs &#8211; cultural fusion before we knew it!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Running until 15 June, Tape Letters invites visitors to tune in, listen, and celebrate a truly unique chapter in Bradford\u2019s rich cultural history &#8211; when voices on cassette kept families close, across continents and decades.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>They may look old-fashioned now, but cassette tapes once carried voices, love, and family news thousands of miles across the globe, and Bradford\u2019s British Pakistani community is celebrating this long-lost connection with a special new exhibition.
