I had a significant other once that made me so many mix tapes I wanted to pelt him with them.
He continued to make them after we broke up, unasked for, and even sent one home for me via the husband, what a nutjob. Thankfully, my husband isn't the jealous type.

I suppose a more modern mixtape would be referred to as a playlist.


ok, Forums, here's mine

Some more. Enjoy.

I think 7 may be my favorite IWHACIYY song. That or 2.

I just made a mix CD for my girlfriend. It was mostly made to show her some bands I hadn't gotten around to showing her previously, but it's the last mix I made. this is just an excerpt from that, I suppose.

Similar thing happened to me, although I didn't make a second one. Now I wish I would have thought of what you did. :pinch:

Enya is probably my favorite female singer.

Nice. That would be like a "Miami Vice" mix tape (and yep I have a playlist named "Miami Vice"). Am I showing my age yet?



Decent cover, but Queen's is the best. Why did you choose the cover version? (other than the fact you like Gregorian Chants, which I do too)

Should I post my picks for a mix tape and show my age further?

(anyone who actually bothers to click those links might notice they're in alphabetical order. I took them from one of my playlists, and man did I skip a lot, like REO Speedwagon)

edit: Oh I forgot http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KF48qgYadq8 and http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-AdIrGhjscs

Is it bad that I remember listening to all those when I was a kid?

I can't. The government might suspend my internet for pirating if I do :unsure:

Huh?? :blink:


linking to youtube is considered pirating in NZ??





imminent brain implosion while trying to wrap my head around this one.. the deeper implications of this are mind boggling :ahhh:

I exaggerate slightly. I'm making fun of the new law about to be bought in where if you share files illegally you can have your internet suspended for up to six months and be fined up to$15,000. The concept of 'file sharing' is a little bit fuzzy though. I won't go too far into it, but I wouldn't be surprised if in a few years posting music on a forum is going to be considered illegal file sharing.

Well it's not illegal yet, so just share! Or do you not have any love for us? oo:

Wow - a lot of people with great taste on this forum!

Please can we not discuss piracy? It's a restricted topic on this forum

Here's a mix tape (I gave her a CD-R) I made this week for a colleague of mine:

1 - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1LLAN29W-4w [Trippy post-rock from LittleBigPlanet theme tune people]
2 - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PvR-reh8NJc [Invective-filled symphonic jazz rock]
3 - Zs - Gentleman Amateur (Leg Lifters mix) [brutal bass-heavy remix, not available on youtube]
4 - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-TTPGAy5H_E [My favourite pop single of last year, in spite of dubious lyrics. Reminds me of Bow Wow Wow]
5 - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KuXNWaRQn0I [Yet another of these hip Brooklyn experimentalists I listen to these days - this track was on a free sampler from Gigantic records]
6 - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I2Qlb0qFLFE [Title track from massively acclaimed new album]
7 - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NfuXyRFMV4Y [You might find yourself doing a silly dance to this one]
8 - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FijRi1OvOrQ [The best thing to come out of Turkey since the doner kebab]
9 - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mQJHNrsMoFU [Excellent electro from much-hyped new indie stars]
10 - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8x2pr-jyXIs [Symphonic electropop described by the Guardian newspaper as sounding like music made under the influence of Brass Eye's made up drug Cake]
11 - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GBplxVLpnQY&feature=related [The "buke" is a six-string baritone ukulele and the "gass" is a guitar-bass hybrid. Thanks to Socrates200X for getting me into this]
12 - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p1J1RFKHCx0 [Fine jazzy R&B from Outkast collaborator]
13 - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r0XXVdHrxCE&feature=related [Not available, but here's something by Fred's other band, Electronicat]
14 - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W_NIQCBnR84 [Fusion of "world music" and rock by Elysian Fields side project]
15 - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jGaM1X42Tbc [Another world-music-y thing - bit more traditional sounding, but the woman's voice is absolutely incredible, like Ofra Haza crossed with Liz Fraser]
16 - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cwo89zTKC9A [My muse, inspiration and pop star crush also does fine cartoon scores]

princess_stomper.
I have not listened to everything yet, but you have already showed me new groups to explore. Thank you for being different, in a good way (My way ).

Here's 14 minutes of pure brilliance. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=57CioVZSTeA. Another side of Autechre.

:D

Making my way through your OP mix. Genghis Tron aren't my thing - not much into the "death metal growl" - but bloody hell are they good!

I'm just realising with horror that some of the members here weren't born when I last saw Autechre play live. :blink:

Oh yeah - if you like Nick Cave, you'll like http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jVgpnUAgsgU song by Foetus, which is about him. Cave and Thirlwell were in a http://foetus.org/content/wp-content/gallery/magazine-clippings/immac2.jpg, and this song just cracks me up every time.

Another recommendation for you, via Lochnarus: the band http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y65RnLkNIMw&feature=related.

I have listened through the whole list now, and it is interesting how a genuine interest in music reflects everything, regardless of music style.

"Death metal growl" is sometimes a necessary evil, to access the really talented musicians.

Yeah, love Nick Cave (and Tom Waits. To name another old man). Cool song. I found it hard to hear the lyrics, but will listen again.

I'll look into Virus too.

Nah, it's only bad if you still listen to them now like me.

The top comment for Is This Love says it all:



Luckily I was born in the 70s

Im going the Say Anything route with boom-box and mix tape held high above my head blasting the New Wave hits from the glorious 80s.

mirglof said "17 burning of the midnight lamp -jimi hendrix (which is actually played 5 times in a row )."

I understand why. Hendrix was at his best when he sang in this almost offhand way.

When I'm at work and the radio starts playing the '70's or '80's block, I start singing along. Makes everybody laugh. Or look at me strange.

Sorry, I was joking, sharing youtube videos is not piracy here.
