..ok done it! ill post it off monday or tuesda. its the most accessible and easy listening one ive done so far. indie pop tastic with a soupsant of irish rock!

Great! Thanks.

d'oh, on a listen back i noticed the tape is all wobbly and full of drop outs. im gonna have to redo it. serves me right for using an old tape!!!!!
ill redo it over the next few days and get it off by the weekend!

Hey can you PM me your address Danny? I can probably get a mixtape made for the end of the month. Thanks!

Sure thing. And don't worry about it, Paul.

i'm a cassette junkie who gets laughed at for listening to my portable tape player while everyone is bopping to their ipods in the darkroom at school..this board is giving me a total musigasm, i'm going to start working on a tape right now!

God, I hate that! I tried to let my freind borrow a mix tape and he goes "Wow Joel, you just went really mid 90s on me"
Fuck em

You guys will have to get going! The send-off deadline is two weeks from today.

i'm a procrasinator and perfectionist, no way i'm making this deadline but definatley will have a tape for the next swap!

Well in that case you better get started right away.

Mine was sent today.

Also, I'm going to offer my services for the next round...

If this is ok with everyone?

You mean you want to distribute next round?

I can.

Though, woth so many of the tapes coming from the UK, it might not make a lot of sense.

Yeah, I thought that... but if someone wants to do it, who am I to stop them? If you guys are up for it.

I reckon there'd be more people from the States joining in if an American did the whatsit thingy. Which would be good. Less hassle and so on.

Yeah, maybe. If I set my 'location' to 'Baltimore' or something, I wonder if more people would sign up?

So be it!

Round 7 will be a Stars and Stripes edition.

Yeah man. It's about time the mix visited the US. I would sure like to return to distributing later on, however, because I enjoy it very much.

Right. We all know how dangerous it is sending mail to third world swamps like the UK.

No missing tapes so far, actually.

I need ze adress

Nah, but you'll surely get a bunch of envelopes with anthrax in them.

anthrax sucks, thats not real metal!!!

If someone could PM me Dany's adress I would appreatiate it

I'm sending mine out on Monday.

Edit: I just finished it.

I'm afraid that my mix tape won't be received well. I listened to it today and I like it, but oh well, whatever. It won't have a track listing, I guess I'll explain it here after the person receives it.

I hope I get Noumenal's. I can only imagine it'd be entirely contrary to what most people would do. I haven't started mine, but it'll be done by mid-week.

Erm, it's all instrumental and the title is "Thesis-Antithesis-Synthesis," which is meant to be tongue-in-cheek. :D

I'll post it in MP3s after the swap.

I'm tempted to make an entirely 20th Century avant tape this time. Everyone loves Ligeti, don't they?

Haha, Ligeti was left on the cutting room floor this time around. Seriously, I considered putting some on there, but decided against it.

My ideas for future mix tapes:

1. all country-influenced music
2. a ton of short, maybe less than 90sec, tracks
3. different covers of one song
4. all songs featuring a certain instrument, like horn or hammond organ, or clavinet
5. arias from Baroque operas....OK, I wouldn't do that
6. dudes with weird singing voices
7. tracks having to do with Jesus's crucifixion

Hey, if you add a little somethin-somethin to the package, I'll make that happen. ;)

I tried to make a southern country tape this time, but after one side I found myself straying into the deep abyss of my record collection and pulling out the usual suspects like Pavement and Belle and Sebastian. I really suck at making tapes, most of the time.

Glice what ever happened to your World Mix?

I think my next one will be entirely in Spanish.

Make sure to include some of this!

stuff drives me nuts!

Oh, don't you know, I'm two steps ahead of you!

Now, here's a spanish song I enjoy http://youtube.com/watch?v=3OoWGZIZ_zU

posted mine about 30 minutes ago......

Round 3, side one was mostly world, with side two being contemporary avant things. It never arrived. I'm tempted by a world mix for this one, but have actually come up with a better idea which I'm keeping close to my chest.

danny, check your mailbox.

I recieved your tape today, Nrtxbkect Wect, or whatever your name is.

Calling me 56 is much, much easier.

I'm glad the tape made it safely. Neato.
