CD for CD

im too lazy to do tapes unless i fancy someone.


have you listened to mine recently?

Fools Rush In (Kevin Shields Remix) came up on shuffle today and i was most impressed


no

ive been using my time as an unemployed person to listen to all my cds that i own and havent listened to yet. however, i will now listen to your cd tomorrow. There is another kevin shields mix on the marie antoinette soundtrack that is well good.

CD for CD also

but no cupcakes, as I don't have a tapedeck no more.


I'd like to do this

I made a playlist today for a DiSer in exchange for a supercool one he made me. The tape had multicoloured writing on it! Ace. Now I just have to get it burned, put onto tape, and sent in the post.

It was so much fun, I want to make another one...

CD best, though tape is nicer.

Does everyone stick to the tape format? Having two 'sides' each around 45 mins long?


um

i dont. but im lazy. (see above) cds work differently though, seeing as you only have one side.


obvs

what I mean by two sides on CD is two 'moods'(sorry). I really hate putting around 20 songs on a CD without a break of some kind as it's really hard to make them follow on from each other, unless you're a superstar DJ or whatever.


you don't HAVE to put 20 songs on

i like to make my mixtapes about the average length of an album so the listener doesn't get too restless


ah okay

well, pair me off :) Sounds fun.

i just use really long songs

i put diamond sea on douchbags, and thats about 25 minutes long. its easier with noise/post rock really


oooh, i haven't heard diamond sea for ages

All the tracks I like are about three minutes long. Maybe I can alternate between post-rock and garage-rock.


that might confuse the post rock thing though

cos it would go quiet loud quiet loud loud quiet. or something. but yeah, sonic youth and such alike are also good for 5/6 minute long songs. i really want to make a cd using all my reallly long songs. it would only have 3 or 4 tracks on it.


leopard leg

win for longest tracks, on my media player - they only fit two onto their whole album.

uah, the alternation would be a bit confusing


unfortunately

The Diamond Sea was the one song of yours i already knew, so it didn't have quite the effect it deserved. Brilliant song though..


well maybe

but at the same time, it did its job. making whole cds of stuff that people hadnt heard could ust result in mental compilations. i often wonder wether its better to do rounded ones or just loads of new stuff..... oh the dilemma.


if you can introduce the person

to loads of great stuff they've never heard of before then you've done well. But in the modern internet centric global meeja love-in that's pretty difficult, particularly when you have borderline mainstream tastes like myself


speaking from a recent experience

a friend recently made me a compilation of 7inch records and I already had four of the things that he put on it (on albums). It was kind of disappointing, but he also put a couple of things on it that I'll never be able to get hold of (probs because they were rare 7 inches- not sure if the same rule applies to CDs).


i mean, if the same rule

applies to compilations made from tracks on CDs

yes please

I'd love to receive a tape or CD

in exchange for a tape or CD, although I will probably give someone nothing new. Oh and the fact that postal charges may work out at a little more. But if someone is willing, I will do it.


Just realised

I can't make tapes. I can make CDs though.

I still owe someone one. It was either Zapsta or Blaaast. hmm

i'll do the pairing over the next 24 hours

plz thx


can i play...?

Although you're all going to clearly hate my taste in music. how does it work?

CD/CD


sure can

it's simple - i pair you off with someone, you tell them about your turn-ons, pet peeves, sexual preference etc. and then you give each other your addresses. Then send a tape/CD


sounds good!

thank you for the explan-na-nation


Are there any ways of being disqualified?

Like being a long way away?


South Africa, eh?

shouldn't be a problem, you can probably just email the mixes if you wish (though it doesn't have the same effect as the physical exchange)

please? Thanks
