goingdriftless' CD swap, so I thought I'd start another. Anyone want to play?
Basics:
1. create a mix CD.
2. burn some number of copies less than or equal to the number of participants (assuming there are some). I will post a complete list on this livejournal periodically.
3. create a playlist (at least) - cover art, liner notes and other fanciness is optional.
4. send me your CD(s) and return postage (a book of 10 postcard stamps would be perfect, or whatever random stamps are running around in your drawer, or a couple of bucks).
5. you will receive the same number of CDs that you sent back from me.
Each CD should include songs that fit the following categories (they don't have to be in this order):
1. A song you like to wake up to.
2. A song by a band you've seen live.
3. A song in a language other than English.
4. A song about moving and/or traveling.
5. A song that reminds you of a loved one.
6. A song that you doubt that others may know, but you think they should.
7. A song that a lot of people probably know, but you like it anyway.
8. A song about/that includes references to animals.
9. A song that makes you think of summer.
10. A song you like to sing along with.
11. A song that's shorter than 3 minutes.
12. A song you like to go to sleep to.
The rest of the songs are your choice (I think that having too many categories makes it hard to create a cogent mix that flows well and such). Or, you could just include these dozen. Or, you could find six songs that meet two criteria each, and add more of your own choices. Or, you could skip those guidelines all together and just send me a mix and I'll like that, too!
Participants so far:sharkycharming, raencloud, outdoortoys, kestrel127, rmfleming, kewlness12, lunatopaz, cislocative
maybemaratcal.
I will send out a participant list as final as it is by June 15, to give y'all a good month to know how many CDs to produce (of course, you can start working on the mix earlier than that).
Deadline: please have CDs to me by July 15
Wanna play? Comment here and I'll send you my address! Feel free to share this with other folks you mix-swap with as well -- the more the merrier!
