I got a mix from Max in the mail today. Browsing over the tracklisting, there is no chance that I will not love this cd.

Especially since I'm already familiar with about half of it.

Your dad has good taste. It was Mardi Gras time when I made it, and I wanted to make a great Mardi Gras Party Mix.


I gave it a first listen on saturday..its pretty great. I thought glancing over the track list that a few songs would feel out of place but they don't. I need to listen to it a few more times before reviewing it but I'll get around to that soon.

I think I'm missing some mixes or people are lazier than me.

I've gotten mixes from:
billy g
billzebub
drinky
idiopathic
timis
dnorwood
ft
soreal
red
z
bgl

i know beachy wasn't sending mixes out because of the cost but i'm pretty sure i sent out like 20 mixes.

Yeah, here's who I've gotten mixes from:

soreal
Z
red
bgl3
timis
Max
shiv
Naked
Billzebub
billy g
oldbulee
dnorwood
OPA!
FT
back_space
Cupid/Patrick
aFreshStart4me

I sent these people mixes but haven't gotten anything:

Dalen*
Flying Rabbit (were you group A only?)

So I've gotten all but two.

*I'm particularly interested in knowing what Dalen's deal is. I know he's been really "busy" (who isn't?), but about two weeks prior to March 1, he said he had two mixes ready and wanted me to send him my address. So what's the hold up?

Sorry if the tracks are too familiar, but there was no way I was going to be able to keep up with the indier-than-thou crowd around here... so I just concentrated on good songs that I like.

If memory serves, I think Flying Rabbit pulled out of the exchange at the last minute.

If he did, I missed that message too. He was supposed to be my "A" round exchange partner. I haven't received anything from him either.

i know, i know....i'm a slacker. been caught up and shit. the mixes are done, labels made...just gotta get burnin'.

within the next 2 weeks, or you can send a pack of rabid honey badgers to my house.

it'll be like that bonus mix that everyone wasn't expecting. i think you all will be very surprised at the tracklistings i might add.

My apologies...I should be sending out 2 volumes of my new mix out to people sometime later this week. It's an all-international mix so if you really don't want it, let me know and I'll send you another sort of mix.

looking forward to it. I thought you might tear it apart considering your background as jedi master of some of the music that is on it.

I'm sorry to report that I will torture some of you in my reviews. I apologize ahead of time. One person's mix in particular is mind-boggling.

People are being slackers with the reviews. I think FT's mix received the most with 11, and I know he sent a ton out. I sent to everyone on a or b also and only have 5 so far. I know I'm being somewhat of a hypocrit because I haven't review everyone's either. But I've reviewed more mixes than reviews I've received, and I'll get around to a few more soon.

I gotta admit, I've been slacking off.... for a while there, I was able to listen while at work and jot notes as I listened, but I've been on vacation and work has been super-crazy lately.

I have on my desk though:

oldbullee
shiv
max
radcliffe
naked (which I have started writing up)
billz (which I listened to on Friday but haven't written anything up yet)

I do apologize for my latency!

Unfortunately your mixes were in my wife's car when she got into a wreck. I won't be able to do your review until we get the car back.

I feel the same. I've definitely slacked off lately (should've had Billzebub's up a while ago, but I'm almost done with it), and I think that's partly due to a loss of enthusiasm. I got tired of constantly checking the mix forum for reviews. I've gotten a grand total of 3 so far, and I think I sent mine out before you did. (Thanks for reviewing mine so promptly, btw.)

I understand that some people are trying to get several listens in before writing reviews, and that's making the process take longer. This is why I did most of mine after only 1 full listen (with repeat listens on certain tracks). It's not that I'm only going to listen to them once, but I wanted to go ahead and post my thoughts because I knew there would be a lot of them to do.
