My person hasn't been online for almost 2 weeks :(

I just added a list of people to the first post that I recieved tapes from. If your name is not on the list, then I didn't recieve the tape. If you partners name is not on the list, then your tape went to someone different. If you want to know who you new partner is, just pm me.

This was posted earlier today... you guys should check it out just to make sure

Here is my review for the spare tape I got first, thank you Jon Nolan :)

 

 

> Track 1: mellow track, male voice, soft, exatly the type of song I could expect in an indie movie. Love it !

 

> Track 2: begins with guitar, kinda melancholic, male singing, beautiful voice.

 

> Track 3: still acoustic song with guitar, reminds me of Chris Garneau, the man is swishing, it's calm and peaceful.

 

(loving the mix so far, totally feels like tunes I usually listen to)

 

> Track 4: mhhh... wait.... OK this is going to bug me, i KNOW this voice but I cant find the singer's name dammit ! Besides my fucked up memory I like this song, though it's a shame it's only lasting 1m30sec or so.

 

> Track 5: OH MY !! this is a gem, the singer's voice is so pure ! I think this is my fav of the mix !

 

> Track 6: female vocals, much appreciated after all those men ahah! Sounds like Natalie Imbruglia (who I love btw). Soothing song, feels good.

 

> Track 7: alright this one has a country vibe… I just cant. Sorry.

 

> Track 8: I’ve heard this song before, it has a Chris Garneau spirit too. Nice, I like the lyrics, though not my fav.

 

> Track 9: guitar/voice, sounds like a young emerging artist, moving song, good lyrics.

 

> Track 10: love the beginning with the sound of the waves, mellow/sad song, male voice, but then a women voice backs it up, gorgeous ! LOVE it !

 

 

It may have been short (10 songs) but I enjoyed the fact that all the songs got well together. I would say it was some sort of acoustic/folk mix which was great for me cause Im not the 'violent music' type ^^ Can become my fav' mix to fall asleep to (which is a compliment from me). Although track 7 should have been out of the mix, I totally fell in love with track 5 and track 10 !! ^^

Glad you liked it! you know you can always delete track 7;)

:shocked2: that sucks!! Well, good luck :hug:

The person I made a mixtape for seems to have vanished.

 

I'd like to listen to it and write a review, if you want :)

Here's my review - I hope you will understand my terrible English...

 

Track 1

WOW, what a way to start a tape! This one starts really special, and during the song it's like it lifts you up and takes you away. Very beautiful singing and specific music. Very very very very beautiful. Could it be Sigur Ros? It makes me really curious to hear the rest of the tape!

 

Track 2

Starts very relax, very calm. After a while the music opens and the signing starts. I have no idea who this is, but I like it A LOT, this is probably my favourite track of the mix!

After these 2 songs we're in a very special atmosphere, and I'm very curious what the rest of the tape will bring!

 

Track 3

The first seconds sound like Chris, but it's not him. Nice guitar music. Calm and relax. Reminds me of Parachutes, and that can never be bad :lol:

 

Track 4

Beginning sounds a bit Spanish or flamenco. I recognise the soft melancholic voice, this must be Beirut? I love this song, I'm putting this one on repeat! Forget number 2, THIS is my favourite one :D

 

Track 5

Very special beginning, could it be a soundtrack? Nice and relaxing but again with that special atmosphere. Like!

 

Track 6

Another style, we have piano now and a very beautiful man's voice. The song reminds me of Jonny Cash sometimes, maybe because of the "low" singing. I don't recognise it, but I love it! I really like to know who this is, I want to hear more from him.

 

Track 7

Aaghhh Arcade Fire, love love love love!!! This is one of my favourite bands and it's so great to hear one of their songs in this mixed tape! Thanks!

 

Track 8

This one sounds a bit "retro", is it an older song? There's a lot of instruments and tones and singing and it jumps from one style to another, there's just too much in it. This is the first song of the tape I don't like, sorry.

 

Track 9

The intro of song 9 reminds a bit of song 8 but luckily (:D) it gets better as soon as the singer starts. Not bad, but not my favourite song. In between singing there is too much "noise" again. Sorry.

 

Track 10

Ahh, Christmas! Hahaa, the intro really reminds me of Christmas time. Sounds like an older song again? We're still in the genre of numbers 8 and 9, but I like this one better then the previous two!

 

Track 11

Wow, interesting beginning! We're in a different genre now, and I like this one from the first note. After two listenings the song is stuck in my head and I can't stop listening to it, I play it again and again! Forget what I said before, THIS is my favourite! Very very very good song, I want to hear more from this band! Really curious who this is! The voice sounds familiar, but I can't put a name on it!

 

Track 12

Wow again! WOW WOW WOW! Could this be Echo & The Bunnymen? Awesome song, definately my favourite of the tape!

 

Track 13

The intro reminds me of an older song again, which is not my favourite genre. But then the signing starts and it grabs my attention from the first word. Nice song, I like it!

 

Track 14

Very very very nice intro. Very special voice, takes me back to the atmosphere of track one. What a perfect ending of this tape, feels like the circle is round. I love this one very very much.

 

Whoever made this tape: thank you very much. The music you gave me is 'softer' then the music I usually listen to, and that allowed me to discover some great new bands. And that's of course the reason I joined this project! I'm really curious to the track list, so I can check out some of the names. You gave me a few songs that I like soooo much and that are amongst my favourites already. I couldn't have wished for a better tape, so thanks again!!!

Heeee nice to know you were the one who made this great tape! Thanks again, and nice to meet you!

 

Ooh, Caribou, Shout out Louds and The National - I've never heard of these band before! I'm definately gonna buy more from them, what great discoveries! Thanks!

 

To everyone else: I suggest you download this mix, it's very good! Enjoy!

01 Nice electronica, loads of echo, almost incomprehensible female vocals. Awesome.

 

02 Electro dance kind of thing. Not really feeling the dude's vocals but the music's pretty hot.

 

03 Dakota by Stereophonics. Loved their first album, only really paid attention to their singles after that, though. I like this.

 

04 Heard bits of this on TV/radio on many occasions and always wondered what it was called. Really cool, dreamy trip-hop/electronica. Nice to hear it in its entirety!

 

05 Classical/ambient, strings, choir. Really nice.

 

06 Kinda trip hop vibe, female vocals.

 

07 Love the xylophone. Explodes at the chorus. Nice guitar sound at 2 mins. Wicked.

 

08 Embrace! They are my absolute favourite band, and Target is a TUNE. Not listened to this in ages so this was a wicked surprise. Awesome.

 

09 Cool sat around the campfire vibe. Big drum swings, shakers, acoustic guitar, rolling piano.

 

10 Funky bass, swirling backing vocals, strings, mantra repeated over and over. Epic stuff.

 

11 Editors? I only really know Munich and the singles from their 2nd album. This is really nice, starts off understated and grows and grows before falling back in on itself.

 

12 Don't know what language this is in but it's really fun. Wicked "ohh ohh yeah" backing vocals. Awesome.

 

13 One Day Like This by Elbow. I love this band and I love this song. Amazing.

 

14 Beautiful classical/ambient piano piece with strings.

 

15 Piano, soaked in strings and a choir. Is that Wayne Coyne singing? Not The Flaming Lips though, is it? Really beautiful.

 

 

Really nice mixtape with loads of stuff that I'd like to check out and investigate further. Thanks for taking the time to make it, much appreciated!

So, who made mine?

My (new) partner has posted that (s)he wanted to listen to my tape more... I'm very curious what they think though!
