MIXTAPE EXCHANGE XV (Summer edition - at least for the northern half of the world)

 

It has become a Coldplaying tradition that every 4 months or so the World of Music holds a mixtape exchange. Over previous exchanges it has been run by many people.

 

The general idea that you get together a heap of songs that people may not of heard, you enjoy, that sound well together or that were just pulled out of a hat (though I don't really advise the last option); it's really up to your interpretation. Basically, if you love to listen to new music and discovering new artists and genres, this is for you.

 

Here are the rules that mostly have been copied from the efforts of RedGirl, because they just work :P

 

Rules:

1. Sign up saying you want to participate - leave your name on the thread

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, on pain of being tickled by a thousand feathers

4. Make your mix-tape (average length is around 50-70 minutes) and delete the info for each song.

5. Upload the mix-tape to something like rapidshare and send me the link and a tracklisting. I will then send it to the 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.

 

Here are the deadlines:

 

Sign Up closes 23:59 GMT-5 Sunday, July 7th

Mixtape submission 23:59 GMT-5, Sunday, July 28th

Tapes will be sent to you Monday, July 29th

 

Any questions? Post them in this thread and we get to them :)

 

(Thanks to Black Rose for the post template)

 

If it is the first time participating, and you are a bit clueless about what is going on (just in case), here are the three past mixtape exchanges threads:

14th Mixtape Exchange

13th Mixtape Exchange

12th Mixtape Exchange

Don't take this too lightly. If you sign up and do not hand in a mixtape without any reason, I will make sure Coldplay will never hug you! :veryangry2:

MMMMM, GRRRRRL. You best believe I'mma sign up for this.

Wow, it already got sticky. Thanks mods!

 

You're welcome : )

I'd love to try this! I've never done it before, but should be fun! Count me in!

Yessiree

Sounds cool! I'm in!

Sign me up! :D

Sign me up too!

Sign me up please :-)

EDIT: I'm not sure if I can take part in this. I will let you know as soon as I can, before the deadline.

I'm in :)

I hope you can, Dee. If not, though, we'll understand.

Add me please :D

I'd like to do this, but I use spotify now.

^ you mean, to exchange the tape?

Yes. I can't do that with Spotify

I think I still don't understand. Do you mean that you only use Spotify and therefore cannot listen to a mixtape nor make one?
