Fellow Coldplayers,

 

It's been a few months since our last musical mystery tour... let's beat the August blues with another round of the Mixtape Exchange...

 

If you enjoy discovering new artists and sharing your own tastes with total strangers, this is the project for you! If you'd like to get involved, please take a look at the guidelines below (which I have blatantly adapted from RedGirls ME 3, cos she was a genius)

 

Rules:

1. Sign up saying you want to participate - leave your name on the thread or PM me direct :)

2. When the deadline for signing up is over, you'll get a PM from me giving you the name of another participant in the Exchange. You will be making a mix for this person, whoever they may be

3. You mustn't reveal who you are making the mix for

4. Make your mix-tape (average length is around 50 minutes) and delete the info for each song.

5. Upload the mix-tape to something like rapidshare and send me the link. I will then send it to person assigned to you, keeping your identity a secret of course!

6. When you receive a mix-tape, listen to it, write a review and post it in this thread.

7. The person who made the mix-tape will then post the track-list and the link so everybody can download it. Simple as that.

 

The deadline for signing up is 15th August (11pm GMT)

 

So do you wanna play?

 

Post your technical questions here: there are lots of clever, friendly types who'll help you out!

 

In the event of an odd number of participants, I'll pair you all up and step out of this round myself. I'll keep an updated list of participants in the first post

 

If any previous Exchangers think I've missed anything out in the instructions, please let me know.

 

So get your names down and "play it forward" :D

If I can do it, anyone can. There will always be someone on this thread who can answer any questions you have

I'm game.

I think I figured it out! :lol: I'll make sure to test it when time comes. Haha that was easy.

 

So, I'm in! :D

I'd do it, but I cant upload :\

Not at all Crests?

How can you not upload?

Ah, I kept missing these things in the past...Count me in this time please :D

Sign me up, I always wanted to do this, just hope I have enough good obscure bands in my music library to make a good tape.
