Topic Summary

A couple of things. First, I like the idea of being paired up with one or two people so that my address is not floating around. It's not that I don't trust you, it's just how I am.

Second, please put a "C" beside my name as I am in Canada.

Third, making mixtapes is a definite art form. I will listen to song multiple times before deciding where it belongs on the CD. Once the mix is complete I almost spend more time listening to the mix than I did picking songs, to ensure that it flows well, sounds good and makes some sense, and rarely do I follow a theme. I go for the hodgepodge approach.

Finally, great to see how many people want to participate. I Dr. Garbanzoured this would be a success and I can't wait to hear peoples mixes! Too bad HG is out. I would have loved one of his.

Sorry to be a rambler but there were a few points I wanted to hit on.

Understood. Oh man.. matchups are going to be fun to do.

This thread and its long posts. I saw the bolded "I'm from Canada", I'm from Canada too.

No more long windedness (word?) from me. We look a little outnumbered.

I got you with the big C scarlet letter, friendly.

Ha, totally understand. I think I have talked about music a fair amount actually, just typically not Sasquatch related, I would say- owing to my total lack of knowledge about most of the line up. Perhaps this indicates to you that our music tastes don't run concurrently.

I think it would be tough for someone to have a taste in music that doesn't run concurrently with mine, except the girl I once dated who only listened to Top 40 and country, which is basically the only type of music I avoid.

And sure, you talk music, you talk more about TV and food. I still read all the posts on this board. The only thing I know about your taste in music is that you are a Tera Melos superfan, or their friend or brother or manager.

There are people who have been here years who I don't know much about their taste in music. The point was, I'm not a mix tape fan, and there are only a couple people on the board I would devote time to listening to their mixtape.

I know you're generalizing here somewhat, but I gave a pretty varied list of favorite artists in the lurkers thread as one of my first posts.

HG isn't out. I'm in, as long as we acknowledge there are considerations for time on my end. I'll just make a mix CD and send it to anyone who wants one.

I love making mixes... but it's a very time consuming process for me, as every song I choose has a very specific reasoning for being on the mix.

^Jesus! If that shit ended up in my mailbox I would not be impressed. HAHA...There is not one song on that list that I could remotely appreciate.

Sorry HG, must've misunderstood your post. Take your time, but when you're ready I'd be game for a mix from you.

Posted by Cbats on Mar 5, 2011, 5:10pm

I'm willing to risk my indie cred on the fact that Aaron's Party come get it is a killer song

edit: that's how i beat shaq is another great AC song

Cbats: It is funny how your lack of an avatar is psychologically disorienting. I seem to just skip over your posts for some reason. I'm not trying to be a dick, it is something my mind does automatically. My mind says "lack of avatar, no compute, next". (yes my mind sounds like a robot).

Cbats made a post he later deleted saying he hates avatars, and his five stars should be enough. In this case, I agree, he's been here for a couple years, so I recognize his posts based on the username and stars. People who are new to the board should have avatars, because I can't tell any of you apart.

That is why I mentioned it to blacksmile, I read a couple posts that sounded like the guy knows music, then realized he had 250 posts, and I didn't know any of the first 200.
