so i did this on another message board some time ago...and it turned out to be really fun! whoever wants another cultmember to make them a mixtape/mixCD...post your name in this thread!

we'll set the cutoff date for...MAY 19, so tell your friends to come and be members so they can get tapes too! the bigger...the better.

after the 19th, i'll randomly (it will be random, promise, so no bribes to be paired up with will tupper...) assign people together and post the pairs in this thread. it will then be your responsibility to contact each other and figure out addresses, ect.

DO NOT POST YOUR ADDRESS ON HERE. i don't wanna get sued.

we did this with about 50 people on the other board, and no one got stalked or killed...so if you are a stalker or a killer, please do not participate in the great mixtape exchange...you'll ruin the fun for all.

got it? post that you are interested, i'll assign people, you'll make tapes, and music will be shared. and maybe you'll even get an old fashioned pen pal out of the deal! whoot!

Heck yeah! I'm totally down for this. Count me in, although it would appear that you already did. Wink (ha ha).

Be warned though: I make mixtapes like the art that they are. Whoever I get will most likely not only get a mixtape, but also a long and detailed history (and a bunch of crazy stories) about why I selected the songs I did. I love making mixes, although I don't do it often enough.

I think this'll be the perfect project for thos particular moment. So yeah, I'm in for sure! Wee!

Me too, but only on the condition that I am paired with Will. Oh yes! I called it first (if that counts for anything)!

mirkah, you apparently missed the FINER print, here:

See it? It says that jane gets to do whatever the heck she wants and make any rules she's into. But still. This is small_fire's show. So Ill let small_fire decide... although I'm hope for some serious jane-ness (the soundtrack of s.! the soundtrack of s.!) myself.

Big money! No Wammies! Stop!

That's awesome mirkah. I have no idea what you mean (I'm sure what you mean is awesome), but still. No clue. No biggie though. It's allllll good. Smile <---useless smile

jane! I had to come back because I had a swell idea. Since I am the kind of guy who takes pride in having a few working braincells, I can't believe I didn't think of this before.

We could send each other mixtapes anyway. Regardless of who gets picked with whom.

Crazy, I know. Revolutationary, no one may say! Heck yeah!

Yay! Mutual mixtapingness! Only can mine be a CD cause I am kind of CD-burning happy right now.

I like how framstedt has the obsessive need to contribute even if he doesn't feel like actually participating.

Sure, what the hell? I was thinking I probably shouldn't cause I don't really have the time, but maybe I'll get some new musical doors opened for me and whatnot. Sign me up! *Slips a twenty under the table to make sure I get paired up with Tupper.*

*rubbing his cheek and looking at Jane with a look of shock* But how did you...? Under the table....? No one could see....?
Besides, you guys are already trading tapes, so you shouldn't be allowed to have each other. Therefore, I get Will! hahahaha, yaaaaaaaaaaay!!!! hahahah!!!
Or maybe if this doesn't grow at all, we can just make one for each of this small little group. Everyone gets 3 new cd's!

I totally second the rap thing. Unless it is supposed to be campy, like FIF's the Pants Songs. I dig them.

I've started the list for my mixed tape (in the form of a CD) whoever gets me is in for some serious luck mother fuck! You're going to get subversive classics, good contemporary AUstralian music, and all over greatness.

Agreed. Stuff like baby got back or anything campy and crappy but good is accepted.

Just not an entire goddamn album full of it.

If he joins, I wanna be paired with kl0pper. No joke, it's in the music threads that we get serious posts out of the guy and we have similar musical tastes. I would be able to make him a mix without worrying that the recipient would put it right in the garbage going, "what the hell is this Neon Meat Dream of an Octafish shit."

If the rest of the music Wes listens to is as good as BBR, then I want him. =D

Plus, he's an aussie, so his music will be assuredly different. Or so one would think.

alright...
yes, it will cost more money and take more time to send something over the ocean. but that is the funnest part! think of all the stamps and stuff that will be on the package...whee!

um...so yeah, it will take longer..but other than that, i don't see any problems, as long as everyone involved realizes that if they get someone from a different country they will have to wait just a bit longer and cough up just a bit more money.

second, as much as i admire the new found friendship between d._prest and kl0pper, and as much as the international love between wes and disx intrigues me...

you can't pick your partner. note that was in the original rules. i hope everyone still wants to be in it, but yeah, we don't want anyone feeling like the fat kid in gym class (although i highly doubt it would be you moe.ron Smile )

but, if you want to do your own exchange outside of the great mixtape exchange, feel free...as long as you still participate in this one!

and yes, of course mixTAPES are okay! i only make mixCDs if someone requests/prefers one...there is something magically delicious about a mixtape that a mixcd lacks, imho.

i think that is all...go tell more people to sign up!
