One of the things I miss in the 1980s, except my childhood, my waist and my belief in humanity, is the Boombox. The Boombox is one of the most important pieces of audio technology ever made: it has taken music from the bedroom or living room and on the street, soundtracking rap -fighting and breakdancing and changing pop culture for the better.

And now it’s back! Back! BACK!

The new we are rewind GB-001 looks like a tree box. It plays tires like a tree box. And it absorbs those tires like a tree box. But it also comes with a number of very welcome improvements compared to the devices from the 80s where it is so clearly inspired.
