  I believe there was no objections to this choice of icon. Can we ensure this 
gets landed soon ? I would prefer to be able to have the new icon as soon as 
possible.

  @paullesur do you have a KDE contributor account ? If not, I cannot push due

  Old-school rules! Also just think of the floppy  disk icon which is mostly 
everywhere the save icon.

  I understand your concern. However we could say the same thing about vinyls, 
and many apps are using vinyls as icons.

  Thanks for your work. I am hesitant about the choice of an audio tape. I fear 
people under 30 will not recognize it.
  I would like to propose trying the tape with the current color and we can 
revisit this decision in 6 months.
  I agree on the text removal and your choice of color is good for me.

  It's true that it's old school, but we also use CDs for albums which is also 
kind of old school now, so it's not totally off. Green is ok too, since the CDs

  Also, I think if we're going 80s we should go all the way. Instead of a 
gradient (green to white), consider using some 80s motif like the vanishing 
lines in here:

  Yes you're right, the text makes the icon more cluttered. I could remove the 
text or draw some kind of stylized text that would read better.
  
  I'm not sure about the color, is green OK ?

  Elisa is a new music player app (yes another one) cassettes are old-school 
yes, but the benefit is that it look like an old (stable well developed) app in 
addition it's way more unique than other music player apps.

  My first try for Elisa's icon looked like a small guitar amp. But after 
discussion,  @andreaska of the Breeze team suggested that I make this 
cassette-shaped icon.
