Yeah, I'd like to join in too, if it isn't too much of a logisitcal nightmare to include me at this late stage.
Re: Mixtape #2
I might need to partake here.
Re: Mixtape #2
This can be a fresh one - anyone can play and Thommo can do his matching up thing (if you don't mind!). Whoever gets me will have to wait two weeks.
Want and will give CD's preferably!
Re:
I'm in. CD's please.
Re: Mixtape #2
we need a theme for this one!
Re: Mixtape #2
everyone should include the FASTEST song they can think of! and the slowest too. that would be ace.
Re: Mixtape #2
I'm in as well. I reckon I can work out CD's for this one, if not - well, tough shit you'll have to make do with a C90 or a minidisc.
I can't be arsed with a theme, unless the theme is 'A Fan's Retrospective: The Best of Chumbawamba'
Re: Mixtape #2
That'll be an empty CD from me then... ;)
Re: Mixtape #2
I'm in.
Smilingcrazyladys was excellent.
I'll be providing on cd.
Re: Mixtape #2
SCL sent me a copy of yours actually cadd, and one she had done herself. What a lovely uncrazy lady she is. I liked yours a lot, I hadn't heard 'Tilted' since high school, when it was my favourite song for ages. With Swervedriver's 'Duel'.
What say people to the 'starting each side with either the fastest or slowest song they can think of' idea? I reckon that'd be fun.
Re: Mixtape #2
Hell yeah I'm in again. Bamos' mix was rather spectacular.
xx
Re: Mixtape #2
Hold on a bit on the mixtape front, I haven't recieved the first one yet.
Re: Mixtape #2
Well, I'm in then. CD is my preferred 'medium'.
Re: Mixtape #2
Ah yes, sorry about that. It's been done, i just need to send it. I've been ill, so spent most of my time at work or in bed. however, hopefully it'll be with you soon.
Re: Mixtape #2
See, spectacular. Ha, in your face, doubters :P
And only one Chumbawamba song as well. It was difficult. Ellen's mix was, to be honest, pretty ace as well. I love this, it's like a big musical love-in!
Re: Mixtape #2
I think we should wait for next month really.
Re: Mixtape #2
You're like my mother witholding presents on Christmas day. I like the fast / slow thing - will itunes find it for me??!
Re: Mixtape #2
no! now now! its so exciting!
i've not received my first one yet, but it doesnt matter...
i can do tapes, and probably CDs now as well since i fixed my computer. either or to receive as well. :D
Re: Mixtape #2
I'm in, don't really mind waiting some more, I still can only do tapes until I go back home but can recieve tapes and CD's.
Re: Mixtape #2
Did'ya get my CD by the way? I wasn't sure I'd put enough postage on it.
Re: Mixtape #2
Yep I got it and am enjoying it, hope you are enjoying mine as well :-)
Re: Mixtape #2
Good good, glad to hear you're enjoying it. Hope there was some stuff on there you hadn't heard before. I've listened to some of your tape but my hifi's a bit screwed up at the moment, but what i've heard sounds cool.
Re: Mixtape #2
Yes please. Can I be in on this one. I'm gonna make a CD.
Re: Mixtape #2
"You're like my mother witholding presents on Christmas day"
I resent that...
Re: Mixtape #2
nah itunes can't think of that for ya... you'll have to wrack your brains...
Re: Mixtape #2
I'm in too! I think sooner rather than later would be a good thing :)
Re: Mixtape #2
Ooh can I join? I know I don't post very often but I do love a good mixtape session! Cd's or minidisc please :)
Re: Mixtape #2
Ahh - but you're always in the heavens watching!
Re: Mixtape #2
can I join? I need to hear more music, specifically English. I love making mix tapes, and more people need to hear 400 Blows and Wires on Fire.
Re: Mixtape #2
I'm in, although i only just sent out my first CD yesterday. I still haven't received mine, although billhooks' sent it over a week ago. I fear i may never receive it now. *curses Royal Mail*
Re: Mixtape #2
yes please, count me in i had a lot of fun making mine the first time, although i think the exchange is still post bound
Re: Mixtape #2
i've already made my 2ndone,ready to be dispatched
Re: Mixtape #2
whats the deal with this mixtape business? making tapes and sending them out?
Re: Mixtape #2
basically everyone gets paired up, makes a mix tape and mails it to their partner. worked well first time through.
sign me up again.
Re: Mixtape #2
sign me up, it sounds great fun and a healthy dealing of nonsense, and if there is nonsense involved im there!
seriously though, yeh its a superb idea and someone deserves a very hearty slap on the back for it.
Re: Mixtape #2
Count me in this time. Though I'm away next week.
Re: Mixtape #2
Oh yeah. CD pls
Re: Mixtape #2
i'm in svp! even though i havent got my first one yet *meep face*
may be better to wait till next month? just to make sure all mixtape no.1's are sent and stuff :)
Re: Mixtape #2
Yeah, im happy working at the rate of one per month to be honest. Have to make time to listen to the things after all - I just got mine a couple of days ago.
Re: Mixtape #2
still havent recieved my first one, so would be better for me if we could wait a little longer
Jamie
Re: Mixtape #2
right then, seeing as you can't keep those button-happy fingers still...
i'll leave this thread going until, uh...Thursday, so that some mo' people can sign in if they want, and then pair you all up again. Bosh.
Won't you be fed up of this before Easter though?
And as for the themes, i've got a few ideas, and not sure which one(s) should be chosen. Any requests/suggestions? i've got:
cover versions
b-sides
instrumental
songs with numbers in the title
love/anti-love
remixes
soundtrack to oblivion
live/session recordings
music to gut fish by
skreeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
Re: Mixtape #2
What about just a party mix?
Easy, and fun too.
Re: Mixtape #2
I'd like to add.
I will be up for it, and will be sending and preferably receiving a CD.
Re: Mixtape #2
I'll be up for it again, CD or tape is fine!
Re: Mixtape #2
Go on then thommo, put my name on the list.
(CD swap for me)
Re: Mixtape #2
Count me in please...
Songs with numbers in would be good, maybe a prize for the person who could do a CD of songs with all numbers and no words. Or maybe thats a bit too mental.
Re: Mixtape #2
I'll do it i would prefer to do tapes but copuld try CdS at a push.
and i am also doing Cadd's cd.
Re: Mixtape #2
"music to gut fish by"
that sounds like the best genre that wasnt invented ever, EVER! i think bands like dragonforce and maybe even bruce springsteen would fit that perectly...... eitherway, let me record rubbish no one else likes! and give it to someone who, may just, like IT"!
Re: Mixtape #2
Count me in as well Thommo. Got a great mixtape from Static IN THe Cities. So great that I went out and bought 3 albums off the back of it!
Re: Mixtape #2
Your CD was well recieved. Which albums u get?... please tell me it wasn't William Shatner.
Re: Mixtape #2
Waaaaa
So soon?
I've not even got around to posting Darcy's yet
(well, he is on holiday.... bastard!)
Re: Mixtape #2
I'm already starting my second. a very eager brainlove i am. it's going to be different this time i think. last time was avant garde crunk-punk J-pop freakout mess. This time is string tapping microbeat glacial beauty. Someone's gonna get lucky and no mistake*.
(*with the tape. that is all.)
Re: Mixtape #2
How can you start on the next one before knowing who the recipient will be?
Are you not meant to carefully pick each track, keeping in mind their taste in music…?
Or have I been taking all this a bit too seriously?!
Hmmm… I knew it shouldn’t take a week to make up a mix-tape…
Re: Mixtape #2
I'm halfway through my second just now.
Was just about to stick Talking Heads-Once In A Lifetime on from my copy of the Remain In Light album, only to find it has about two jumps on it. This may give me compers block, the end of an era.
Re: Mixtape #2
nah, fuck the recipient's taste!
very nice of you to think of them. but my tape making is always about building a big impregnable fortress of shit-hot music, plucked out of the neverending framework of everything ever, and making it into some kind of sense, a perfect, streamlined version of right now according to me... and how could someone not love that? how?
there is just no way ;)
Re: Mixtape #2
I've made myself a copy of I reckon every comp I've made other people over the last decade because I knew that they may not be in possesion of the faculties necessary to fully appreciate a work of true genius.
Re: Mixtape #2
Please can I be included in this one? CD preferrably.
Re: Mixtape #2
I would like to be included on this second round as well... the first time was superfun!
CDs or Tapes are equally fine.
Re: Mixtape #2
"Are you not meant to carefully pick each track, keeping in mind their taste in music…?"
That's what I do anyway... I don't want to send someone a CD full of stuff they've heard already.
Re: Mixtape #2
I'm in again, Cds ta.
Good as the first brainlove mix was i somehow wish i was getting the glacial beauty one...
Re: Mixtape #2
I'm up for this.
Cd please.
Re: Mixtape #2
I'm still waiting for the first but I'll doit again.
Re: Mixtape #2
I'm still waiting for the first but I'll doit again.
Re: Mixtape #2
bump!
Re: Mixtape #2
Are you supposed to put your name on this thread even if you were in round 1?
Anyway, me too.
Re: Mixtape #2
yes please.
with CD or cassette (or minidisc or wax cylinder or carrier pigeon or...) preference.
As i sillily got rid of the old list. Boo me.
Re: Mixtape #2
cd please
Re: Mixtape #2
cd for me please
Jamie
Re: Mixtape #2
i want a cd sent to me.
i can make cds
but making tapes is a much better art
BUT
cds can be more uselful.
Re: Mixtape #2
alright, i'll stick you anywhere then...but beind sent CDs...
Re: Mixtape #2
*being, obviously....need sleep...
Re: Mixtape #2
I can make cds or tapes, happy to receive either as well.
Re: Mixtape #2
I finished mine last week.
My good lady wants a copy, but only if I remove certain tracks first which weren't quite her cup of ladanum.
Re: Mixtape #2
her cup of hawhatanium?
Re: Mixtape #2
http://www.nycgoth.com/more/laudanum/
Re: Mixtape #2
Sounds like a good cuppa...
Re: Mixtape #2
After they stopped prescribing it you could tell your doctor you were feeling rundown and they'd give you a prescription for Buckfast up here.
Re: Mixtape #2
Ay I'll do it again....I vote instrumental...that would be so easy for me.
Re: Mixtape #2
just to re-iterate - i'm in! mini discs are preferable but cds are possible.
x
Re: Mixtape #2
Yeah I'm up for it - first time round was really cool
Re: Mixtape #2
I'm in, yet to recieve the first one like, but loveless says he sent it & royal mail sucks, so there we are.
I'll take a CD & make either please
Also, Thommo, if you need any help on the organisational side of it, I'm more than happy to give you a hand. seems a bit harsh expecting you to do it all
Cheers
Sean
Re: Mixtape #2
I'm in, Thommo!
Preferably CDs or minidiscs for me, but tapes are ok too.
And if anyone wants to send me an iPod with a playlist on it, go right ahead...
Re: Mixtape #2
i'm in please! yet to recieve the finnish guys, but it mite take a little time compared with the english patrons.
cds please!
i've said please twice in one post.
now 3 times.
need coffee.
Re: Mixtape #2
oh, format preference! cd. jolly good show!
Re: Mixtape #2
Supersheep's hasn't turn up yet from the 1st time, dodgy post...
Oh, and count me in for round 2
Re: Mixtape #2
Since I eventually managed to get the first one posted, I suppose I should really work up some enthusiasm for doing a second one.
Cd if poss... but can also do a minidisc, if needed.
Re: Mixtape #2
me again in! cd please in both ways...
Re: Mixtape #2
I'll fookin do one.
Re: Mixtape #2
if its not too late, count me in for a cd!!!
Re: Mixtape #2
yes please I want to be involved in the CD swop!
Re: Mixtape #2
Here you go, latest list of who wants in. I think we should do a party mix theme or something fairly generic, if we make it too specific, (B Sides for instance) it'll be hard for everyone to get to grips with.....
Re: Mixtape #2
i want in!
cds please!
Re: Mixtape #2
yes me aswell.
cds again, i am, after all...a child of the digital era
Re: Mixtape #2
It's snowing, do a winter theme.
Re: Mixtape #2
I actually just rushed to the window in an excitable way when i saw that post...only to find you're lying (or live somewhere i don't)...shame on you.
I'm afraid to say most of my links to any theme may be slightly...ummm..."imaginitive" if its too difficult to find songs on it.
Re: Mixtape #2
A Winter theme would be good. :-)
You could stretch that to include band names, lyrics... even tracks that just sounded vaguely wintery
.. and would be open to really tenuous links that you just couldn't get away with for something as definite as "b sides".
