I didn't have the time to make a full mix for someone recently, so instead I made this quick 3 track EP so she could listen to something on the drive home. It has a sleepy, semi-hypnotic feel. (minus the cutesy first track)

1. Bow Wow Wow - Fools Rush In (cover)
2. Suicide - Cheree
3. Moondog - Pastoral

Hope you listen!

Boy Racer,
Thank you for the mixtapes!
It's a forgotten art!
Did you see on MySpace about that company where you can trade tapes, etc? I think it's under International Mixtape Project.

If you check my myspace, spooky84, you'll find it there.

cheers.

PS: Do you do mixtapes for others on a regular basis? I do.
 
I received two wonderful compilations via the International Mixtape Project.
 
Hey Dallow_bg,

You did? What were they?

Hey, add me to your "friends" list if you'd like.
 
Hey, hope nobody minds if I join in this little share-party. I've knocked up a "mood" mix tape: this one's full of sad, weepy ballads that is perfect for late night, slightly depressed listening. Some of the stuff on here's not all that tyrendy, but - akk! - who cares, right?

BTW, tracks 17 and 18 are just so gorgeous it hurts!

1. Spiritualized - Ladies & Gentlemen We are Floating In Space
2. Ben Folds Five - Brick
3. Get Up Kids - Valentine
4. The Pipettes - Because It's Not Love
5. Smoking Popes - Megan
6. Third Eye Blind - The Background
7. The Dears - We Can Have It
8. The Thrills - Last Night I Dreamt That Somebody Loved Me
9. Bruce Springsteen - The River
10. Regina Spektor - Samson
11. Manic Street Preachers - Love Torn Us Under
12. Sia - Paranoid Android
13. Art Garfunkel - All I Know
14. Roxy Music - A Song For Europe
15. Rufus Wainwright - This Love Affair
16. Weezer - I Do
17. The Decemberists - Grace Cathedral Hill
18. Youth Group - Forever Young
19. The Beach Boys - Caroline, No

Great mix, thanks very much! :)
 
Yeh cheers... loving the sad songs mix tape....the version of Paranoid android is completely despairing. (In a despairing way ie not crap!)
Making a Radiohead song sound even more depressing has to be a miacle of modern science!

I was walking to the shop last night listening to it and had to move on. MOVE ON. Too much for my new man sensibilities.

Oh, I miss mix tapes so much! I used to be unbelievably anal ratentive about making them, I would make a list of the songs with the time the song lasted for on the side so I could add it all up and ensure I never cut off a song half way through. If the times wern't on the cd, I used to lie on the floor and time the songs on my cd player. Yes, i am serious. I used to view my mix tapes as a part of me, design the sleeve and post them to my friends. The rules:
1) only 1 song per artist per side.
2) If you had a band featuring a singer and wanted to put on their solo work, you had to leave a 3 song gap between (at least)
3) The tape had to have a 'mood' and a 'flow'

.....OCD? Me? Never (not that it is a bad thing)

I really want to take part in this, but I am a country bumpkin with computers, how do i file share and upload this stuff?
