I have not received too many mixes and there is less than a week left. If the majority of you think it will take longer to make your mix, please let me know and we can extend the deadline a week or something.

I really like that one long mp3 idea, should have been required. I'm sure not everyone would do it though.

Yeah. And it would likely involve transcoding if the originals were mp3's. Or not, i dunno.
And yeah, i'm sitting on my mix because it's fucking horrible, hoping something will strike me before the weekend. Sorry eventual recipient. |

My review (I of II):
First of all, the mixtape I got is one long track. Which adds to the actual mixtape feeling but makes it a bit harder to distinguish the different songs. I like it, but I wasn't always sure when a song ended and another one began, so I'll use time stamps and you can correct me if necessary. [00.00 - 00.39] - Intro. Sounds weird. Something off a G-Unit record, maybe (because of the lyrics)? [00.40 - 04.43] - This is Nas - Memory Lane. Awesome, I dig well-done hip-hop, if I'm in the mood. And I am right now. I still haven't found out why I always start laughing when I hear Biz Markie's voice, though. [04.44 - 07.07] - Love the cross-fading. Another nice hip-hop track. I like how it starts with a simple bass line and evolves from there. A bit short maybe, wouldn't have minded another few minutes. [07.08 - 10.49] - Fat fucking beat - my head has been banging constantly so far. Although I only able to make out like 30% of rap lyrics, I heard the words "Wu-Tang", so I suppose this is by the Clan. Love it. [10.50 - 14.58] - Is this NERD? I only know their newest record, but both the production as well as the vocal performances sound similar. Awesome. [14.59 - 17.54] - The sample's well known, though I can't name it. The song sounds like something off the Beastie Boys's instrumental album, but I know for a fact that it's not on there (right?). I like the female voice samples. [17.55 - 20.10] - Finally some harder synths. This sounds like Barbara Morgenstern, a German electronic artist I adore. Another instrumental, but I don't mind. Quite the contrary, actually. [20.11 - 24.52] - A very reduced and, erm, chime-y? This is something I could fall asleep to. I like it when songs are structured relatively simple and have a kinda positive vibe. I need more of this. [24.54 - 26.35] - Starts off with a slow bass guitar, which is never a bad sign. Hear, hear - a sax? This is getting better and better. Sounds like it could be on the Night On Earth soundtrack. [26.36 - 29.14] - Skip James? Fantastic, oldschool guitar blues. [29.15 - 33.02] - Another amazing track with mostly vocals and guitar. You really have a gift steering a mix tape in a new direction, it's great. Who is this? Again, I want more. [33.03 - 36.32] - Uh, looped, layered e-guitars. Makes a nice interlude, really. Could be anything from a 13-year-old in his garage to Sigur Rós. No idea, but I like the harmonies. [36.33 - 41.17] - Right now I'm hating myself for not being able to easy recall certain songs. I've definitely heard this before many times. Starts off like Explosions In The Sky, actually. I listened to this on my way to work this morning, walking through the freezing city. It was spectacular. God, I love this song. [41.18 - 45.29] - Another slow prog song, though more Mogwai-y. I really like where this tape is going. I'll do the rest tomorrow, I gotta leave the house now. |

i find it funny that all mixes are supposed to be made and sent out by this time and we still only have roughly half of a review posted.
anyway... my mix is done, and i actualy uploaded it at one point, but something happened and it didn't work. i'll upload it again when i go to sleep.

I'm not sure if it's related at all, since I've never heard Har Mar Superstar, but a picture of what looks like an album cover shows in WMP on every song.
================================================== ==== Track 1 - Funky, french-language surf-inspired ... I like this in a weird 70's spy movie way Track 2 - Really like the vocalist. I could see myself enjoying this a lot. Kinda sounds like it would be on the same record as the previous song, so that's good for continuity. Track 3 - I can see a pattern here. Another female vocal song, which is good because I like female vocals. Also sounds like it would fit in on a record with the first two songs. Good stuff. Track 4 - Instrumental, also sounds like it fits in with the previous songs. Track 5 - Oh, hey, I really like the vocals and music on this song. I'd love to hear more from this artist if this is how the songs generally sound. First song with vocals that aren't female but yeah, I really like this. Track 6 - Jesus, another spot-on track. I am really beginning to like this mix. A lot. Track 7 - This song is OK; nothing really special about it, but it does seem like it goes hand in hand with Track 4. Track 8 - This song is a bit much to take; too much going on at once. May warm up to it on further listens. But it does flow perfectly from the song before it. Track 9 - This flows nicely but I don't really like it much. Track 10 - Enjoyable, but doesn't seem to be a song I'd like, ever play again Track 11 - This has to be portishead. I never really got into them. I mean, I don't hate them (except for their last album was horribly boring) but I do kinda like this song. Track 12 - Well, this is markedly different from every song on this mix. Genre change! Sounds like Sea Change-era Beck, but I could be off. I haven't listened to that album in FOREVER. Track 13 - Pretty song. Definite replay. Track 14 - This person sounds like Hope Sandoval from Mazzy Star, which is not terrible because I enjoy MS. If it's not, then this person should pay royalties to her. Beautiful song, either way. Track 15 - Another super familiar-sounding voice, but I can't place it. Nice song. Track 16 - Hate to say it again, but this is a familiar voice, but it's not coming to me. I like it OK, kinda drags over almost 8 minutes, but it's not bad by any means. Track 17 - meh. could have done without thing song. Track 18 - I forgot who sings this but I LOVE IT. "Suzanne"! ================================================== ======= This was like getting two mixes since there is a distinct change around track 12, so that was cool and I give a 4/5 for song flow. I give a 3/5 for song choices because most are good and replayable. A few are just OK and don't really make me want to listen to them again and a few are just not my thing. Seems this person definitely put some thought into it and I appreciate that. |

As somebody has already pointed out, a lot of people have still not sent me a mix. A handful of people have nicely PMed me to tell me that I will have theirs shortly. I really do appreciate that. Those of you who have not done this have until the end of the week and then you will start getting the bitchy PMs from me. Either send me a link by then or tell me what the fuck is going on. To those lucky people who have gotten their mix: REVIEW IT!

My recipient was D. and he turned around a review pretty quick. I still haven't listened to the mix I received yet, so apologies to whomever that may be. D. here is the tracklist:
1. Stereolab - Percolator 2. Siouxsie and the Banshees - Hong Kong Garden 3. Cibo Mato - Spoon 4. Four Tet - As Serious As Your Life 5. Matthew Dear - Deserter 6. Gang Gang Dance - House Jam 7. Amon Tobin - Get Your Snack On 8. Dismemberment Plan - Back and Forth 9. Moving Units - Submission 10. Har Mar Superstar - Cry 4 Help 11. Portishead - Glory Box 12. Beck - Guess I'm Doing Fine 13. Cat Power - Say 14. Mazzy Star - Still Cold 15. Nick Drake - Parasite 16. Songs: Ohia - Didn't It Rain 17. Elliott Smith - 2:45am 18. Leonard Cohen - Suzanne It was a two genre mix. First part was aiming for songs with a rhythmic bassline, second part was just sad and/or emotional songs, but I ended it on a high note with a great song about love. |
