I use her address for the tapes, because the post isn't very reliable around where I am.

"Live"? If you'd ever been there, you'd know why "live".

Is another of my long-held northern impressions of the south ('that place') about to be shattered?

You'll all be pleased to know that I've completed the cover art. I've included a tracklist this time.

I was thinking it would be great to see the cover art we're making. How about posting some pix or scans of the covers we make or receive?

i'll only send a letter talking a little about the bands with the tape ...i'm no artist at all.

I'd intended doing that in my review of yours, gmku. I might just have time to scan it now. Apologies.

That fish is very nice, after all.

Hmm... & not Twiggy's gams, eh? Well, to each their own... :)

'gams'?

gam - noun, slang: leg

Excellent. Am to I assume that you had something of a 'thing' (as I believe it's called) about Twiggy in your younger days?

I'm about to up the images to photobucket. Check the first mixtape thread in a mo.

Laila had a thing about Twiggy. Are you really Laila, gmku?

Never see them in the same thread, do you?

What red-blooded heterosexual male didn't? Long legs, mini-skirts, those big eyes, that suggestion of a pout....

And then she ends up pimping herself out to Marks & Spencer (Twiggy, that is, not Laila).

OMG, I just found my next fave web site. Twiggy!!! You still look so fab!

guys

i havent made mine yet
BUT
ive been thinking alot about it and have a good idea of whats gonna be on it, so i just need to make it.

i figured mine is going to piss off whoever gets it but i certainly love it!...actually, i don't think they won't like it at all, but there's going to be a lot of fast forwarding, i'm pretty sure.

can't decide on the artwork, though.

yeah, mines not for the faint of heart

so if your a flaming lips fan, dont bother.

I wan't your tape on the basis of this sentance alone.

i'll get to the artwork soon, but until then

BUMP

I'll be making one. Be prepared to have your stomach destroyed.

OH. Pookie. Be a dear and e-mail me your address again. I still lack the PM function.

I've found another creative twist one can add to making tapes, providing one has the right equipment: I used my turntable pitch control on a couple of songs for this next one--let's just say that even slowed down, David Bowie really does seem to be singing "mouse" in that line, "She says, oh baby, just you shut your mouth..." . He also sounds much sexier.

Yeah yeah yeah,gmku.You'll never beat my current set up wich is made of 2 cd decks and a pc.I can mix everything nicely and add some creative twists to my little mixtapes.I've had to re-think my third one and now it's going to be a triple concept mixtape about love,peace and cock.No sides for this one.You'll get sod 1,sod 2,sod 3 etc etc.

sounds like a much more sophisticated set-up than mine, then. I'm rather lo-tech. Ah, listen to the crackle as the needle finds the groove...

I've made a point of including the crackle, and also occasionally of leaving the sound of the needle lifting at the end of the track. Had any of my records skipped I'd have left that too, but they didn't.

Yeah but i can convert old tapes and vynil while i mix at the same time.Beat that!Currently,my mixtape is being produced by Philip Jeck and The London Community Choir is making a guest appearance.

Porky, what have I told you about being silly?

I couldn't. Even if I had the equipment. I'm not smart enough.

:rolleyes: Don't know,you tell me.:rolleyes:

I've told you that you'll be sent straight to bed with no tea.

When I finished my round 2 tape, Iinitially considering ditching it and starting all over again. But after a few listens, I actually prefer it to tape one. My only regret is that I made it 90 minutes instead of 120. But I can live with that.

I'll post sometime next week.

i finished everything!!!!!!

i'm posting it tomorrow, and it's one for the ages, lemme tells ya!

Gash. I nearly finished the tape, but have decided on a drastic re-thinking of the track-listing. Probably posted on Sunday now.

Mine is burnt on 2 cds(one for each side) and I'll put it on a tape soon. Mine is going to come in a small box. Probably a shoebox without coverart. Only random things I decide to put in it.

I was thinking about putting small gifts in with mine, but didn't in the end. My local railway timetable was one of the possibilities.

Mix tape now finished. Perhaps not as much of a headfuck as the first, but certainly challenging. I'm pleased.

I've decided to abuse my position as coordinator this time, and listen to the tapes as they arrive.

I've listened to one so far and it's a corker.

POOOOOOOOKIE,

E-mail me your address again.
