Mine is already done. Just checking the burn quality now. It's on the last song and all is good so far. Twenty three songs. You certainly get value for money with me.

i think i've decided to pick the nice, round number of 20 for my mix. this way i can do my "side a" and "side b" with 10 tracks each. thats the thing i miss most about mix tapes, the ability to break up the mood

Yeah vinyl swap would be coool. We need the technology.

By the way, who's disc had an Oliver Messiaen track on it last time? I have finally gotten it to play and it's scaring the shit out of me. Maybe that's why my hi-fi never wanted to play it, 'cos it was such ghostly music.

OK I am now 4 tracks in and it is getting more evil by the minute. Who's is this? I am not even sure it qualifies as music, just the sound of the dead trying to get back to earth.

My god, I hope he includes some songs this time. The Heroes mix is the closest to one so far, and I'm 6 tracks in. This is seriosuly hard going. I am guessing he wanted it that way though.

Love, love, my season

i was thinking of that too, but then its 21 tracks, and that fucks up the symmetry of an even numbered tracklisting. i'm so anal sometimes

I've got my first draft done - I've tried to add a couple of lighter tracks but they just sounded crap and didn't fit in. I'm going to try do another light mix and see which one I like the most.

I think I'm fighting a losing battle here.

I've had to stick my stoner rock comp on to soothe myself.

Is this the free sex CD? I only know it by that name. Sorry. I'm not trying
to be naughty or cute. So you guys do updates on how the song-choosing
and burning is coming along? I have made my decisions and the burning
starts tomorrow tonight, big hockey game tonight, can't be fooling around
at home when there's hockey!

I am doing a meat and potatoes CD, if you will: starts out slow, ends fast.
I hope you guys like it.

Aaaah a classic format Kathryn - and one that I love dearly. I'm just going for crazy crazy shouty then a touch more crazy thrown in for good measure.

Yes we do do updates because you land up becoming obsessed by the whole thing.

If my bosses knew just how much time I waste fiddling with my itunes, I'd be outta here.

mine is...well, i'd say i'm stuck at the moment. its a mix that is diverse and all that, but there is something missing...so i'm going back to the drawing board. all i have for sure is my closing song, which i already put on a mix for kiki, so i'm going to give her a special bonus track to compensate.

Brian, I could tell you put oodles of thought into the stuff you sent me. It
sounded great! And on top of that I get a special bonus track! You
CD-swap people know how to treat a girl!

You guys are so generous. I may rethink my plan of having
only 20 songs on my mix.

Yeah, that was mine.

My mom had died not too long before the swap deadline last time. I put together a mix that kinda reflected how I was feeling at the time.

Fair enough, sorry to hear that.

I really was scared though. I was on my own and my mind kept thinking of the film Dark Water I had watched a couple of nights earlier.
