Holy shit, it’s that time again?!?
That's right little chitlens, we're doing another one. :^:
Link to the first thread. Those who haven't posted reviews/received cds are still welcome to complain and/or praise in that thread.
HOW THIS WILL WORK:
This one's going to be a bit different. You will have 2 swap partners. O_o
List will be laid out as people sign up. Once the list is finalized (changing may be done) your swabby swap partners will be the forumer above/below your name on the list.
Those of you who don't wish to have twice the music can have a separate list, or mayhaps monetary concerns prevent you from sending out two Cd's. EITHER WAY!
You shall not pass...
..wait no its totally cool. Just you get to be on the lame person list. (The list that will have one swap partner)
I'll try and make sure the same people aren't swapping again, so please let me know if you see this happening...unless you don't care, then whatever. Why'd you even bring it up?
How do I sign up?
Easy, make a post and
lime your name in your post.
Once you have signed up, PM me your address, and begin working on your mix.
List will be finalized a week from now (24 Aug 2010). Shortly after that I will be sending out address's to you peeps and you can get your mailing on. This means you have ample time from right now, until next week to decide on your mix, get some snazzy cover art shits going on, and package it.
People who are super slow on sending things out need not apply, we don’t want to have to wait around for a month for a cd.
We all know shit comes up, but please be courteous to your fellow forumers.
FAQs:
Dude, if I have 2 swap partners will I have to make 2 separate cd's?
Not unless you want to. I'm going to send my 2 peeps 2 cd's each. Volume 1, from the first cd swap and volume 2 for this one, but that's just me. If you just want to make the same cd twice and send it, feel free to.
That's rad, and also hip. Can I send cd's with all my data stuffs, because I can't narrow it down?
Shit no, son. These cd's will be standard audio cd's...only more badass because some dude over the internets made it just for you! Also, apparently Jokerman may be at your house to butt rape you if you send out a boatload of mp3s to your swap partner.
Can I find out what my swap partner likes and customize the cd for them?
If you have the time and inclination!
How will this list work?
Because I'm excessively lazy, for the most part it will be built as people post. Also if you participated in the previous thread, please also post who you're swap partner was, so I can shuffle the list.
What will future events hold?
I'm not entirely certain, but I figured if I was going to run the next one a few themes I had in mind. Break-up mix. Soundtrack (you're idea of a soundtrack to a real or fake movie...or just a certain year in your life). Running mix. etc. Or we could continue with the normal swapping of things. IT MATTERS NOT TO ME!
Please dont show up at my place and butt rape me.
I can assure you that I will not abuse you giving me your address. Unless you want me to.
FACTS:
-If you send out/receive some amazingly cool cd insert or the cd looks cool, post pics!
-Post reviews. You don’t have to go super in-depth and rate each track, but at least tell your swap partner, in front of all of us, how much you hated/loved the cd.
-Mail stuff out quickly!
-This is the most badassist of things ever. Don't take my word for it, though:
"This was the coolest thing ever, thanks Jokerman!" Snuff E Luffagus
"Bonerific" New York Times
"The excitement I felt was equivalent to a hundred million orgasms. I changed my pants shortly thereafter." Chicago Tribune
"Thrilling." Wikipedia

Also: need more peeps!
All over this, already testing playlists for maximum flow.
However, as soon as I get an idea of who I'm sending to I can start my crappy album art. I'll probably take some pics this time, because everyone deserves to be exposed to my lack of ability.
One of them is getting my Canadian mixtape, the other is getting my American mixtape. I'll probably just flip a coin to see which is which.

Updated OP. Tell your friends!
Anyone have some art skillz that wants to help me with a poster for the next OP? Sends me some PMs.
A CD-R holds up to 80 minutes worth of audio (well, some only hold up to 74 minutes, but those are leper CD-Rs and shall be shunned as such). I see two methods of compiling a mix. The natural tendency I imagine is to cram that sucker as close to the maximum audio allowed, get the most bang for your buck. The other method I can think of is to treat the mix like an average album and shoot for somewhere in the 28-50 minute range so as not to bring on listener fatigue (unless you have a killer 80 minutes lined up).
Which method do you follow? Or do you follow a different one?
At least that's how I roll, unless I'm just sending a bunch of songs that I've currently got in rotation to a friend.

This should be fun.
One of you fuckers is getting some tracks from a couple great local bands.
You're welcome
You should all be warned - I have terrible taste in music :P
Been too long since I made a good mix.

Still need address's from a few of you. I want to be able to send out a swarm of PM's the day sign ups close and people can get to mailing shit with a quickness.
Do it...
I'm going to send out the address's pretty quick once the sign ups close.
Last time was fun. Would swap again.
I'm in, but only if you want awesome music.
I wish I hadn't missed the first!
I'm all about forcing more people to partake in my terrible taste in music
