Yeah, not at all pretentious, be creative.

I'll be accepting names until noon, at which time I'll cut it off and begin work getting stuff moving.

You know I'm totally in already, but I didn't do one of those little info list things. So here it is.

I think we should have a competition when Mnementh does his thing and sorts out who sends to who. The competition is, let's get this whole thing done smoothly and sensibly, with no-one being a complaining dick. If you win, you get the prize of knowing you are a competant human being. I for one intend to win big time.

Mnementh · « **Reply #104 on:** 11 May 2005, 08:18 »

This isn't in order yet, but here is a list of who I have. The asterisks mean you don't want to ship out of NA, so I'll try and get you set up with someone, but given the line nature of this, I might have to screw one of you over.

Let me know if I am missing anyone. 45 minutes to get in on this.

I think although cds have largely taken the place of tapes we should keep refering to mixes as mixtapes forever no matter what format is used because it's such an awesome word. Just say it - "mixtape".

El Opium, judging by your user pic, you would DEFINITELY be interested in trading with me and I with you. Feedback rules.

OH JOY!!!!
Let's rock and roll ladies and gentlemen.

Wow. How did I get muffy? Well, this will be... interesting.

SalsaShark · « **Reply #113 on:** 12 May 2005, 19:22 »

I like this mixtape idea, but I'd rather not get laughed at for my weirdly eclectic taste... also whoever got me might have to deal with a bluegrass song or two xD

Inlander · « **Reply #114 on:** 12 May 2005, 19:27 »

Don't worry, you're not the only one with eclectic taste 'round here - and you're certainly not the only bluegrass fan.

Kai · « **Reply #115 on:** 12 May 2005, 19:33 »

Bluegrass = win. Polka = win to the 100th power.

SalsaShark · « **Reply #116 on:** 12 May 2005, 19:36 »

You know what's even better than polka? That song from that movie "History Of the World Part I". You know the one I mean, where they're singing about the Inquisition.

nickyandthefuture · « **Reply #117 on:** 12 May 2005, 20:30 »

Oh sure, have the twee pop addict give a tape to the metal head

Kai · « **Reply #118 on:** 12 May 2005, 20:42 »

I just realized I'm getting one from Robbo.

The tape I'm recieving won't suck! woo!

Of course - that's the whole point! I mean, where's the fun in you and me exchanging Darren Hanlon songs, huh?

EDIT: Send Khar "Brooklyn Bridge" - it's a song all about a romance between metal-heads!

nickyandthefuture · « **Reply #120 on:** 12 May 2005, 20:52 »

Hmm... I was going to use "I wish that I was beautiful for you" but you're right - "Brooklyn Bridge" is probably more appropriate

Inlander · « **Reply #121 on:** 12 May 2005, 20:57 »

Plus it gets bonus points for rhyming "Manhattan" with "That'n."

Although that whole verse about dreaming of driving along the road in "I Wish" is brilliant as well.

thanks. anytime anyone even mentions that song i get it stuck in my head. rarrrrgh.

KharBevNor · « **Reply #123 on:** 12 May 2005, 23:55 »

I have a feeling that I'm going to be gritting my teeth to sit through my cd/tape :p

Which brings me on to something. I was going to put this in my PM, but I think everyone should swear, solemnly, to listen to every second of every song on their mix in one sitting.

Inlander · « **Reply #124 on:** 13 May 2005, 00:00 »

Good idea - but I'm strongly tempted to encourage nickyandthefuture to send you both sides of a 120 minute tape!

KharBevNor · « **Reply #125 on:** 13 May 2005, 00:03 »

I moderated my CD to have a wide variety of songs, at least some of which might be appreciated by anyone who got the CD.*

* And some where you just go 'arghleflarghlewtf?'

Robbo · « **Reply #126 on:** 13 May 2005, 00:43 »

Kai, you're a lucky man. But this probably means I'm gonna have to throw weird shit at you to make you listen to something new and different.

Indeed man, because there's no point otherwise, just takes all the fun out of it.

KharBevNor · « **Reply #127 on:** 13 May 2005, 01:43 »

Agh...I am trying to appeal to my better half, not to formulate the bost brain-rapingly extreme CD I can put together with my current music collection.

MilkmanDan · « **Reply #128 on:** 13 May 2005, 01:50 »

It's got to get a full listen through, or there's no point. Let's think positive though, I don't want to see people assuming they're gonna hate it all before they even get it.
I'm trying to get a balance between extreme and moderate. Avoiding Noise, but putting in some Breakcore, for example.

Robbo · « **Reply #129 on:** 13 May 2005, 01:55 »

That isn't going to work. Some people can know right now that they will hate what they get. Because they hate the bands their sender listens to.

But then this isn't about getting what you like. Apart from Kai who won the Metalhead draw. I'm sad about that, I wanted to make some Indie Kid suffer life long mental damage.

muffy · « **Reply #130 on:** 13 May 2005, 02:47 »

haha..this is gonna be great!

Pip, beware...

Tinjessla · « **Reply #131 on:** 13 May 2005, 03:06 »

Woop! Hope you'll like your mixtape, willis

nickyandthefuture · « **Reply #132 on:** 13 May 2005, 05:33 »

Khar: Hey don't worry, it won't be all songs about My Little Ponies. Just one.

Are we all going to post our tracklists on here? Maybe after the recipient gets the tape?

Robbo · « **Reply #133 on:** 13 May 2005, 05:41 »

I dont think Khar is worried about what he gets. He's trying to think if he should cause brains to explode out of heads with his cd or not.

I was going to suggest we all post the tracklist of the CD/tape we receive.

Inlander · « **Reply #135 on:** 13 May 2005, 05:51 »

I've just finalised the track list for yours, Dan. Oh, you're in for some delectable treats and tasty variety!

KharBevNor · « **Reply #136 on:** 13 May 2005, 06:12 »

How about we post the tracklists of our own CDs/Tapes here once we send them off and then make a seperate thread where we review and discuss them once we recieve them?

Mnementh · « **Reply #137 on:** 13 May 2005, 06:17 »

Well, that might spoil the surprise for, especially for folks who are getting their's from other countries.

Inlander: I'm excited. Starlight, I have begun putting yours together, you're in for quite the electic treat.

Schmung · « **Reply #138 on:** 13 May 2005, 07:56 »

I'll sort mine out Saturday.

MilkmanDan · « **Reply #139 on:** 13 May 2005, 10:20 »

I say post the tracklist of the one you get, to avoid ruining surprise

omigosh! can we trade just for fun?

a pack of wolves · « **Reply #141 on:** 13 May 2005, 10:42 »

Yeah, I reckon posting the list of the one you get's best, I always prefer a tape to be surprise. I just played the one I got yesterday for the first time, and it kicked off with an Alan Partridge sample followed by Limp Wrist. Result!

I'm kind of hoping the person making mine is a full-on indie kid, I haven't been keeping up with a lot of indie rock for years so it'll be nice to see what's been going on there lately.

If you where from the Isle of Wight, you'd get drunk all the time as well.

I will trade with her too, because she's a nice person.

Inlander · « **Reply #148 on:** 14 May 2005, 08:10 »

Okay, but I think here we've got to draw a line in the sand. Nominations are over. It seems to be a sparkling success, so I don't see why we can't have a second round, but for now - I think that should be it, lest the whole thing get out of control.

Schmung · « **Reply #149 on:** 14 May 2005, 08:17 »

I think I might actually go with a double CD compilation here. I just require a suitable case for it. I'm going to roba padded envelope from work on Monday and send it out Tuesday morning. Actually, if I can get away with it, I'll just send it via work, thus saving me the cost of postage. Yay!
