We always assumed Darth Vader’s chest panel was packed with life-support controls, advanced Imperial tech, and enough buttons to intimidate an entire galaxy.
Turns out? It’s a cassette deck.
In the first episode of Cassette Deck Vader from our friends over at Auralnauts, the Dark Lord of the Sith finally reveals the true purpose of all those mysterious buttons: instant access to his personal soundtrack. Need dramatic entrance music? just press play!
After watching, you may never look at Vader’s chest panel the same way again, and honestly, carrying your own theme music everywhere is exactly the kind of power we’d all choose if given the chance.
