The mixtape challenge.

Postby Johnny Sniper on Thu Jun 25, 2009 6:13 pm

:fadh

I think anyone knows what a mixtape is, right? A bunch of songs collected on a tape (or to be a little 2000's on a cd) for one special person or under the flag of one theme. Now wouldnt it be fun if we would make a little mixtape for eachother? And send it through the mail, not the internetversionmail to have that authentic touch. Here's how it works: Message me with your full name + address and what sorta music/bands you like or a last.fm page and put yourself on a list I'll create somewhere down here. So others can see you're in and maybe join themselves yay. When I got enough contestants or something I'll hand out a message to every contestant individually with the address and musical preferences of the person he/she's got to make a mixtape for (and someone else will make one for you), send by (air)mail. Which may be costing a bit since we're not all in the same country, but whatever, music makes costs worth it ;) So. Nice idea? Lets say you can join till the 10th of July and I'll distribute right after that.

Plus questions are good.

You, go build a website.

(I might be in, even tho I'm kinda done with these things. But that wouldn't be very supportive I guess.)

You're in. Just cause you got two halfbad mixtapes doesnt mean its not fun anymore right? (or just support me? {*}) hihi. My last mixtape from sissyboy Bram sucked a bit too, even tho the one i made was f amaaazing.

Damn, I barely own any music anymore. I listen to pretty much everything on Spotify. So if by mixtape you mean, "make a Spotify playlist" ... then yeah, I can do it.

surely its more fun to recieve a cd in the post

ive done it before on another forum and we each recieved a cd off somone and it was anonymous, we then posted the playlist on the forum and others guessed. its good to have a random playlist and not necesserily (sp ha.) make it for the person youre sending it to cause i had only heard of 1 band off a cd made of 20 songs and it got me into a few other bands. anyway just a suggestion.

count me in

yea, thats also the main goal of this (or at least in my mind it is ;)) discovering new music through others so to say. The reason you get one person in special to make a mixtape for is that someone who's really into hiphop music prob will not like your album full of new indie bands, its easier if you at least have an indication so to say.

not as if im afraid no one here will like eachothers music since were on a fanforum... :mrgreen:

But yay, send me adresses ^^

BOL-LOCKS.

I had one chance to post my mixtape before the agreed deadline. I had to post it yesterday. I only remembered about the fact I had to post it this afternoon.

I apologise to the person gatting my mixtape, it might be a little late.

Same here. I'm already slightly working on it, but nowhere near to finishing. But hey, it's international, we don't have to be that tight on rules. I promise it'll be worth the wait!

I'm fighting with some tech problems. Everytime I put a CD/DVD into my PC, it shuts down :D i'll probably have to try to burn the CD on my laptop. And I don't have much time to actually concentrate on this.
