DAngerer09 Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 okay, since most people want to go the mediafire/sendspace route, I'm fine with that. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

DAngerer09 Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 The cd preference people could always do a swap, and everyone can do a sendspace upload. We all win! Yeah, I figure the person organizing this thing will just pair CD folks with CD folks, and same with sendspace. Also, ya'll think we should confer with our partner before making a mix- like taking a look at their last.fm or having them give us a few of their favorite artists? When I make a mix for someone, I try to tailor it to what I think they would enjoy. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
cooperissup3r Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 i think just make whatever cd/mix you were going to make anyway...if you look at what they like, then they probably aren't going to hear something new. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

kidsmoke Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 I would most definitely be up for this. i could do cd. Hi Jeremy! I swear I'll get around to replying to your pm soon! Miss ya! Oh, and count me in here, this sounds fun. I can go with either upload or mailed cd's. I too love getting fun mail for a change, instead of just bills and advertisements!

hardwood floor Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 i actually don't mind CDs if that's what you guys want to do just prefer sendspace if we do sendspace, we can all share our links Quote Link to post Share on other sites
m_thomp Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 Any rules apply to this mix-off? Usually we've have a limit to ten songs, and sometimes even a theme? Equally, we could have no rules, which would ultimately mean me sending twigboyjoe a 'Best of Shed 7' triple cd-set. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DAngerer09 Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 my mix is ready to go. 12 songs, 42 minutes. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Equally, we could have no rules, which would ultimately mean me sending twigboyjoe a 'Best of Shed 7' triple cd-set. How about anything that can fit on one 80-minute disc is fair game? Also we keep saying sendspace, but if we are going to upload these, I think mediafire might be a better bet. Mediafire stores files a lot longer and generally has better download speed for free users in my experience-- but basically anything but rapidshare will suffice. And if we are uploading, do we put the mixes up on the thread or should keep it to PM's? --Mike Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kidsmoke Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 I would prefer any who put up downloadables do it in this thread...then more of us can enjoy! And yes to putting as much music as will fit on an 80-minute disc. What a great way this is to hear new stuff! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DAngerer09 Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 yeah, if people are going the upload route, mediafire is MUCH better.

But if people were to share via pm's, that'd be keen. No biggie , we did have YouSendIt uploads on the actual threads in the past, but YSI uploads only lasted a week and there downloads were capped, so we could sort of control the file sharing. Mine should be done shortly. --Mike Quote Link to post Share on other sites
LouisvilleGreg Posted July 4, 2009 Share Posted July 4, 2009 Excuse me in advance, I didn't read the whole thread, but I didn't see any mention of actual "tapes" in this discussion. I made these suckers from age 10 in the mid-80's all the way up until a few years ago. I still have some blank tapes around here. At least in my case, as I haven't digitized my vinyl collection, a mix tape would have a much wider and greater range than anything I could do with files (not that I know how to do that) or burning cds.

HungryHippo Posted July 4, 2009 Share Posted July 4, 2009 just finished my mix. had to re-mix it as the first mix was depressing as heck. it then occurred to me that most of what i listen to is depressing. this new mix is rad tho. 19 songs at 79 mins. 42 secs.

mpolak21 Posted July 4, 2009 Share Posted July 4, 2009 As we finish up what's the best way to get these out? Should we post our tracklists in the thread, and PM everyone on the list our links? Greg, I was the last person on the block to get a CD burner when I was in high school, and I think I might be the last of my g-g-generation to actually use cassettes. I'd prefer my playlists to kind of be fluid and always changing-- I rarely keep a playlist unscathed on my ipod for longer than a couple of weeks, I'm always tweaking with different song sequences, and so tapes were a little difficult for me to manage. I'd always end up fucking up as well and not quite taping all the way over a track. I remember somehow I had R.E.M's Murmur with snippets of Revolution No. 9 spliced in between the tracks. I still hear "Number Nine, Number Nine" sometimes in between Catapult and Sitting Still. Right now my mix is almost finished up. Looking forward to all of these, I might have to drive from Saint Paul, MN to Charleston, WV over two days next week, so it'll be fun to have some new track lists to listen to. --Mike Quote Link to post Share on other sites
