Guardians of the Galaxy is tearing up the box office thanks to its mix of outrageous comedy and action, and it's mix-tape of old-school music played on an old-school walkman. The look and feeling is retro, it's classic, and best of all, it's something you can emulate on your iPhone!

Sound LAB Retro Sony Walkman Style Headphones

They're retro. They're foam. And they're orange. Ooga chaka indeed! Sadly I could only find these available in the U.K. but they're so cheap maybe shipping won't matter no matter where you are? According to the site, the earpads have a diameter of 4cm and a fully adjustable 30cm headband.

AirCasette

Once you've got your iPhone looking like a Walkman, the next step is to make iOS look like a cassette tape. Luckily, in an App Store with a million apps, there are more than a few cassette-themed music player options to choose from. AirCasette is one of them and offers both the base cassette look, and a one-time an in-app purchase for additional cassette looks.
