Hey y'all!

I remember doing this a few years back around Christmas time. It's not Christmas, but I like making mix CDs for people and am feeling a bit lonely and out of touch with people in the town I'm in.

So! Does anyone wanna do this again? I can head it if you want. Everyone will send me their info and I'll mix it all up and assign people. There will be a deadline and if someone hasn't received a mix by then then I'll make one and send it to 'em so everyone wins!

Yeah? Cool? Let's do this.

Nate (anthemforadoomed/skateandannoy) made me a pretty bad ass mix that I never returned the favor on, which I should probably do.   Sorry about that Nate.  I've still got that Inferno release CD for you too.

You're welcome! I almost forgot about that Inferno CD! I'm down for another mix swap.

kinda weird how the earth continues to spin on its axis and everything eventually dies even when you don't want it to dang

I did this back in the day and would love to do it again. i even made a small 'zine that i shipped with my mix cds. but most of the people didn't respond, or stopped after the first response, except for Krystal, who became a facebook/interweb good friend.

I enjoy making mixes but I don't really know that I'd make a physical copy.

So I guess I shouldn't sign up for this and I have wasted your time posting this.

hey i like that idea brett, those who want to do physcal cds can but we can make specific idea lists and post them here for people and friends. like halloween mixes like you did last year! and if we join grooveshark or spotify (or another one that allows saved playlists to share, recommend please which player you like) we can click links and go right to it!

what do you say? everyone? bueller?

Remember those monthly mix cds I was sending out for a while? That was fun, but just got too expensive for a "free" project when I was shipping almost 75 CDrs a month.

Of course now, there'd be like 6 subscribers, so I could probably do it again.

Wes I was thinking a few weeks ago about doing that same thing.

hey people, i'm putting a day of the dead mix togather. since i'm already mailing whitney the bbc peele session Mogwai did i'd thought it be nice to send extra cd with that to anyone who responds. write down your address or pm if you are private like that, and i'll mail you two cds. WOOT at people i knew in the 90s would sometimes say

PM address or post. I had to buy some packages to send and got the wrong ones (the ones with bubble wrap) so i might send more than just cds cause why let bubblewrap go to waste. I have five, right now ive written down the address for whitney, brett, and dakota (whom i owe a letter to anywayz and hopefully won't see this so its a surprise) so i have two packages left. i'm mailing tomorrow after work for real (i had to buy cds too cause i couldn't find what i did with my previous blank ones) but we're whiskey ago-go now!

Your mix downloaded as text... is that supposed to happen Brett?

Anna Karina

It's a .rar file. Are you sure you clicked the right thing? Zippyshare likes to trick people. I just tested the link and it looks like it still works.

AaronTheCabe

always remember to check the download file size with the listed file size, its the big red download now button (in this case), the other one that looks like it would be it is just another advertisement.

also, will send yours out friday i gotta buy more packages. if there any problems with the burned cds anyone please let me know

It's weird because it says it's a rar file, but still it's just text. I have the add blocker I'm I'm basically positive I'm downloading the right thing.

Anna Karina

Has anyone else tried to download it? Same issue?
