Yeah, it's not that I was pushing the time limit, it's that I thought a lot of the stoner stuff wouldn't gel as much with the other one.

And who's 'us'?

~~tommydski~~ · « **Reply #103 on:** 25 Apr 2008, 15:17 »

'Us' is used as 'me' in the lexicon of certain regional dialects of English.

To my knowledge, the North of England and parts of Australia at least.

Dimmukane · « **Reply #104 on:** 25 Apr 2008, 16:46 »

I thought it was limited to Schizo's.

Huh. You learn something new everyday.

karl gambolputty... · « **Reply #105 on:** 25 Apr 2008, 18:56 »

It could also be the royal 'us'. The Queen might be making a summer mix.

pwhodges · « **Reply #106 on:** 26 Apr 2008, 01:56 »

I'm from southern England, and find "tell us" to be perfectly idiomatic as it was used.

They are all m4a's, because that's what happened when I put them on a cd and then uploaded them again. But let me know if you have a problem with any of the tracks. (Hopefully you shouldn't!)

arjue · « **Reply #108 on:** 30 Apr 2008, 01:00 »

fixed.

and yes, I am the Queen.

Thrillho · « **Reply #109 on:** 30 Apr 2008, 09:45 »

I have started mentally writing my tape. It's not going to be straight forward track-by-track; expect megamixes, my friend.

pinkpiche · « **Reply #110 on:** 30 Apr 2008, 10:28 »

I am absolutely certain that I will win this.

imagist42 · « **Reply #111 on:** 30 Apr 2008, 18:35 »

General query: is my mix likely to be helped or hurt by the fact that I am completely avoiding everyone else's mixes until I am done?

~~tommydski~~ · « **Reply #112 on:** 01 May 2008, 04:13 »

Helped.

I'm not going to listen to them until after June.

Ã¶de · « **Reply #113 on:** 01 May 2008, 04:25 »

I am probably going to make a better one.

Okay, how about $100 on Amazon or American Apparel?

For reference, I will convert this currency amount for wherever the winner happens to live and round up to the nearest ten.

I was entering anyway, but now I actually give a shit!

My intro is a mashup. I have big plans for this. Crossfade city.

pwhodges · « **Reply #115 on:** 13 May 2008, 17:00 »

"Summer", to me, hints at playing, loving and losing, and just plain lazing about.

"And now for something completely different". This is a poor fit for the rules, and for the usual taste of this community; the newest track is this year, one was recorded in 1904, and the oldest was written in the 13th century. So what the hell - enjoy it or hate it, as you will.

http://www.mediaf!re.com/?y2gmwmcbeti(re-upped with more useful tags. I hope the tags work OK - I don't use them myself)

More than half the tracks were recorded by me, mostly at concerts and a few for commercial release - how vain can I get?

I'm doing it as like two halves of a vinyl double; day and night.

imagist42 · « **Reply #117 on:** 14 May 2008, 10:57 »

Oh crap. I went to take a look at my mix in progress, add a couple songs I felt good about recently, and I couldn't find it. Time to start from scratch, I guess.

Dimmukane · « **Reply #118 on:** 15 May 2008, 12:46 »

I have mine ready, but I was debating whether to retitle the album in the tags for the competition, or keep them intact so Tommy might look into them later. Any suggestions?

Try to keep it upbeat and fairly melodic.

but what if you're not really a summer person?
and why no industrial? i can listen to chrome all year long.

michaelicious · « **Reply #120 on:** 15 May 2008, 13:04 »

This is not your mix competition.

20 jazz funk greats · « **Reply #121 on:** 15 May 2008, 13:21 »

clearly.
if it were, i'd choose a better theme than tommy's.

but i am thinking of entering this anyway, just cause i'm bored and i probably do have some "summery" songs on my computer.

Lines · « **Reply #122 on:** 15 May 2008, 13:48 »

I don't have many summery songs, but I had fun with it. Besides, it's fun to find things to mix with the few you do have and also try to guess what Tommy has not heard.

GenericName · « **Reply #123 on:** 15 May 2008, 14:17 »

I just noticed the mix I had made like a month ago, and may post it after minor revisions.

What themes do you have in mind? Themed mixes are pretty neat.

Ignore the track numbers in the filenames, they are from the mix before I re-edited it. Everything's in the right order if you go by those, but the actual track listings are in the tags.

Oh, july? That's okay then, I can do the 'night' portion.

pig nash · « **Reply #131 on:** 01 Jun 2008, 08:53 »

I'm gonna try this, but I fear it will not be anything but the new hold steady album.

I already have every record by the Archers of Loaf thanks.

BlahBlah · « **Reply #133 on:** 01 Jun 2008, 09:34 »

It's definitely not summery here in Aberdeen! I think summer has gone already, but at least it was longer than usual ¬_¬

pig nash · « **Reply #134 on:** 01 Jun 2008, 09:54 »

Ouch. It's actually only got one hold steady song on it but it'll probably still not be that good.

I'm just saying that I remember that Girls & Boys in America album from when it was called Vee Vee.

I remember when you were convinced VeeVee was "not very good".

It's actually off of Almost Killed Me.

I'm new to these boards, but I'm fairly confident in my ability to make a swinging mix. How accesible does it need to be? If it has a song from a ska band that only 3 people in a small ass town in Utah would know, is that permissable?

sean · « **Reply #143 on:** 14 Jun 2008, 15:10 »

Dogg put whatever you want on your mix! Make the best possible mix you think you can.

~~tommydski~~ · « **Reply #144 on:** 14 Jun 2008, 15:39 »

Include whatever you want!

I don't think you'll win if you include ska though. Man do I ever hate Ska. Sorry.

~~tommydski~~ · « **Reply #146 on:** 14 Jun 2008, 15:56 »

I can forgive a couple of ska songs probably. I have a skip button like everyone else.

If it's a good mix, it's a good mix.

Thrillho · « **Reply #147 on:** 14 Jun 2008, 16:02 »

Your skip button won't work on my mixes because everything's crossfading...so I hope your fast forward works!

wesleyv · « **Reply #148 on:** 01 Jul 2008, 13:32 »

here's my entry, no idea what you like but I tried to put all sorts of different music on it. It defintely has some weird african/latin tracks on it but I thought they sounded nice with it
