I made mine a few weeks earlier than normal. Was looking through favorite songs of the year, and realized that all my "must have" tracks got to 80 minutes pretty quickly. I hadn't used MixMeister in a while either, and I had a lot of fun with transitions and sneaking things inbetween a few tracks.

Bowing Out: A 2007 Retrospective
01. Eluvium - Prelude for Time Feelers
02. Master Shake - Nude Love (Reprise)
03. Modest Mouse - Dashboard
04. !!! - Must Be the Moon
05. LCD Soundsystem - North American Scum
06. Kanye West - Stronger
07. thehoodinternet.com – I’m A Flirt (Shoreline)
08. Battles - Tonto
09. Les Savy Fav - The Equestrian
10. The White Stripes - You Don’t Know What Love Is
11. Patty Griffin - Getting Ready
12. Jason Isbell - Dress Blues
13. The Arcade Fire - Intervention
14. Iron & Wine - Carousel
15. Son Volt - Adrenaline and Heresy
16. The National - Fake Empire
17. Low - Violent Past

Put both files in the same folder, and unzip the .001 file.

Hmm. I'll do one in a few days. Weird thing is I've heard thousands of tracks this year but not a lot of full albums.

First year in my life I'm not album-oriented.

OPA! · **Posted:** Tue Nov 20, 2007 8:57 pm

I'll do one as well...

Radcliffe · **Posted:** Tue Nov 20, 2007 9:15 pm

This is a bunch of fairly mellow stuff that might not make it on to other Obner mixes, but stuff that I didn't want to be totally forgotten. Pretty much a mood mix, too. I would've liked to include songs by the Parlour Steps and the Manvils, but haven't found their albums yet.

1. Joe Henry Civilians
2. Nicole Atkins Cool Enough
3. Silos Days Gone By
4. The Broken West Hale Sunrise
5. Grant Lee Phillips Raise The Spirit
6. Chuck Prophet Naked Ray
7. Bettye Lavette Before The Money Came (The Battle Of Bettye Lavette)
8. The Dexateens What Money Means
9. Limbeck Friends
10. Nick Lowe Not Too Long Ago
11. Patti Scialfa Play Around
12. Ian Hunter Words (Big Mouth)
13. Two Cow Garage Mediocre
14. Dom Mariani Snapshot
15. John Doe The Golden State
16. The Breakers Tried So Hard
17. Peter Case Million Dollars Bail
18. The Mendoza Line Packs of Three
19. Ted Leo & The Pharmacists The Toro And The Toreador

Great songs.

In fact I'm a little pissed because a few of those would have been on my mix.

I'll have to check out some of the other ones you've got on there.

That's the advantage of starting this thread is that I can take all the freebies. Glad there some other ones on there you want to check out. Thanks for the feedback.

1 - i was just about to say that radcliffe's mix indeed repeats some artists i've seen on other mixes

2 - i think when i will post my mixes, i will mark some tracks with a * to note that they've been stolen from other mixes.

Just you wait, you'll also see them on mixes by BillyG, GAR, Bloor, RParis, and DJack...

I'd take overlap with any of those people as a compliment.

Also Bort - there's only been 3 mixes posted so far, with only one repeated artist, so I'm not sure what mixes you're talking about. Besides, I wasn't making any claim to being solely original - more that the albums I'm drawing from don't get much Obner lip service, so the songs will probably be neglected on year end mixes.

due to recent events i will no longer be able to copy your mixes and claim them as my own.

wenchlette · **Posted:** Tue Nov 27, 2007 4:22 pm

I should start working on this.

well i'm sure they are to be found somewhere in this new hotbed of excitement known as the mix forum. i just snag stuff and put it in itunes.

I've started numerous mixes for this, spending hours picking out songs, only to delete the whole thing part-way through. Always feel like they aren't good enough or "gelling" properly. Will atempt yet again tonight to make a couple and get them up on zshare.
