does anyone know if bothcrosses1122 has a new name over here on this board? cause s/he signed up for the exchange, didn't re-register over here under the same name, and hasn't checked my PM on the old board. if you're bothcrosses and told me what your new screenname is, apologies, but send me another PM.

I've been working on mine all morning. A bit bummed that all the good music I have is on vinyl, but I guess I am going to suck up the .99 to buy them off of itunes. Arg!

I'm having a tough time with my mix cd. Last year, I had Greenhat and it was great becuase I knew some of the stuff he liked and had an idea of some stuff he would like and etc. This year. Oh no. The person I have knows so much and has so much . . . I'm so afraid of failing. Anyone else having this problem?

XO WD I don't really know my person, but judging by their 'standing' on the site, I am assuming I swimming in a creek with no paddle. So I just decided to throw in a bunch of songs I liked and thought were worth sharing, I'm sure he's heard of some before, and hopefully some, he hasn't! |

Sent my CD today.
I know we are meant to do it secret santa style, but I sent a christmas card as well.
The CD actually doesn't close, cos I was making my own artwork(very basic) on the back and front, and some glue got caught in the closing mechanism I think.
CD still rocks.

Identify yourself or not as you please, y'all. I was just thinking it would be a surprise who you were getting it from, not that they would necessarily keep their identities secret. Really, though, however you want to do it. |

i need to finish up the album art for mine, i decided to go with a theme of cover songs. i found some pretty cool stuff. But i do agree there is a fair amount of stress with this thing, i just really hope the person getting my CD enjoys it.

However, I'm going to follow a basic pattern I've come up with and just throw in some songs I enjoy. xD Hopefully he'll like it! |

I haven't sent mine yet but so far, I've got a cover and songlist and there are 18 tracks. That's just how many I could fit on there.
Also, I have no clue what the person receiving it, if they will like it, so I apologise ahead of time if you don't.
Also, is anyone else here going to supply the lyrics to the songs? I don't know if that would be overdoing it or if that would be awesome. Though there are a few songs I can't find the lyrics to and that is what is taking me so long....

I've got 18 songs and a pretty bamf cover. I put the songlist and artists. The lyrics would be really awesome, but I'm lazy. xD
Also - I apologise if you don't like some of the music, dear mix partner. Some of it is music I enjoy and some of it is things that have at one point spoken to me.

I have the list almost worked out. I want to do something for a cover, but am not super creative, so we'll see what I come up with.

I decided on a tracklist, now I'm working on liner notes. I have a few ideas for the cover, but I'm not too sure what to go with..

I'll be writing some notes to go with mine. This will probably all take a while. I feel bad since lots of people have theirs sorted already, but it's 1 week until the end of term and I am swamped! I think I'll be bringing my laptop to my parents' place over Christmas which will provide me with opportunities, I'm sure, to create something fun.

Mine won't be mailed off until at least next week. Finals and all that. |

Is everyone being paired up for this? Meaning- is person "A" making a mix for person "B" and "B" is making one for "A"?
Or is it more random? Like, "A" makes for "B" but "B" makes for "R" ?
And this is the first mixtape I've made in over two years that hasn't included a THS or Lftr Pullr track or three.
But there IS one reference in there.
We should do these more often. It's fun.
