Do tell, how is the view up your rectum this time of year?

Okay, I'll try to make one side more like something you would find on a Best Of album. Yeah, I will probably stick to the singles for that part. The other side will be hard, but fun. It's just difficult to narrow down sometimes. I think I'll be able to do this.

I remember John Peel playing Cave's cover of 'By the Time I get to Phoenix'. I was impressed, but I've never heard much more.

Do you always cave in this easily???

You ARE being randomly assigned a person, you just don't know who they are. What can be more fun than mystery?

If this is a John Hughes movie, what character are you?

Gasp!

If I find that I have a lot of extra time, I might have to make you something as well.

I'm also realizing that there is no way this is going to fit on one tape. Maybe two. At this point, I am not quite sure. I don't want to shave off too many good songs.

Ok, I just finished mine and will send to Pookie tomorrow.

Whoever gets my tape can do anything to this music, ANYTHING. Yes, even that.

I finished the third one yesterday.

i would like to get in on this.

See the first post on this thread for details.

what a bizarre answer to an honest question! thanks truncated for that insight! you do blow hot and cold dont you. doesnt matter, someone of a less sensitive nature politely answered my question!

Darling, as I've said to someone before, don't make me have to use that goddamned tongue smiley to indicate humor. I expect better of you.

i just have a question about this should i decide to do it - how much time is on one side of a tape?

For blank tapes, usually either 30 or 45 minutes.

I'm not sure how long my first one was, as I recorded over a pre-recorded tape.

depends, could be anywhere from 30 seconds to 60 minutes

Porkmarras: I wanted to tell you that earlier when I was finishing my tape, I was going through some old mp3s I had on the computer, you know burning some stuff onto CD to put on the mix tape. I came across two songs that I couldn't for the life of me remember what they were. Then it hit me, they were songs you had posted a few months back, one for your cat, and another appreantly random tune. I was temtped to put them on the tape, but it didn't really fit.

Maybe the next one. Great stuff.

thank you. sister ray will fit after all.

Thats about 17 Minutes, eh?

spookie, bro, i have a question:

do you need to have the tape by august 31st or do we have until august 31st to send the tape, regardless of the date you get it?

because if it's the first, i better start sending it asap.

It needs to be sent by 31st. But you need to let me know you've sent it so I can start planning the swap.

*Still pouting over not being able to personalize her mix tape*

That's, like, 90% of the fun!

ok, point taken trunk!

Hey thanks!

nefeli too

There's a 38 minute monster version on this:



Which is available at Amazon and presumably elsewhere.

If you are going to buy a boxset though, you really should be buying either this:



Or this:



Which, if nothing else, I'm sure Mr Priest would agree with me on.

Oh gosh, yes.

I'd pick the Peel Sessions to buy, and then you can still listen to the Conet Prooject online. Sweet.

In a fair world, everyone would be given a copy of the Peel Sessions boxset at birth.

17:31

I was very, very tempted to make each side of the tape 2 songs, one very long and one short. Perhaps this time...

That's a good idea.

Wasn't The Orb's 'Fluffy White Clouds' 43 minutes?

i was going to do one song on each side of the tape.

i was going to put fushitsusha's that which is becoming to me but i thought it was too cheap to just put one song in one side (althought, with that song, i can squeeze a dozen grindcore songs on the same side).

i was just going to do it to piss off whoever got my tape.

I thought it was Blue Room that was very long? Gah. I've seen that band many a time, but I don't own a single thing. More shame me.

What song would you put on the other side?

The Quine Tapes set actually has three Sister Rays, but yeah, the longest is 38 minutes. The others aren't exactly short though.

I just checked. You're right, sir!

i don't know. presuming toilette got my tape (pookie, i am looking at you. send it to him if i decide to do this after all.) something by the rolling stones because i know he doesn't like them.

I have the Quine Tapes, Glice practically essential, isn't it? I just didn't assume she meant that one.

I need the Conet Project stuff though. For sure.

i love the quine tapes.
