still don't have a tape from my partner :sad: shame

You didn't get your tape? Wow. That makes me feel bad. I was about to come in here and whine about how I didn't have a review for mine yet. :shame: I'm sorry you don't have it, Dee. :\

i'm gonna review mine today hopefully, i've been so busy and i am a really bad influence

soz guys

and dee i'll try sort you out~

So so sorry for not reviewing mine yet. The last few weeks have been really hectic with work and a Secret Gig to prepare for! I'm off work for a couple of weeks now so I'll be posting my review very soon. First impressions - wow, my partner put in a lot of effort with the artwork and song titles, so thank you very much! Each of the tracks is named after a month - I'm wondering if the tracks reflect each month in some way? I'm looking forward to listening to it! Thank you again to whoever made it :)

So guess what

 

 

Finally finished the review! First of all I’d like to thank my mixtape partner for an awesome tape. There’s a lot of effort and thought put into this, and I enjoyed it very much. The mixtape is named “This Heat and the Adventure”, and the music is credited to Human Panic. Each track is accompanied with a title which fits into the concept, which seems to be a relationship, but in reverse. There’s also artwork for tape, which depicts the tail half of a blue shark, painted on a white background. I’m curious to if there’s a thought behind it, and behind the titles etc. Anyway, here we go:

 

Track I (Conclusions): The tape starts off with a short track, only a minute and a half. There’s a synth arpeggio, a piano laying down chords at every change, and more synths adding to the atmosphere of the track. The lyrics come in at the start: “I really wouldn’t mind if you burned in hell”. It’s a man’s voice, and it’s full of echo. At the only chorus, a steady bass line enters and ad a small build up. Then the track ends suddenly and a voice (my partner’s?) says welcome. It sounds as though the track could have been longer. Was it edited? This isn’t a track I’d have used for an opener, but since the mixtape is kind of in reverse it works well.

 

Track II (Faces): An unusually instrumented and composed track, which uses many sharp sounds on top of softer sounds, like an organ. Screeching, sharp guitars, which lie on top of the vocals are the most prominent instrument. There’s a lot of angst in this song, and the singer is practically screaming at certain points. It’s hard to make out lyrics, but it sounds as if he’s addressing “Yvonne” or “Ivan”.

 

Track III (&Seperations): A chord progression played on piano makes way for a voice which reminds me of Dry The River. The progression changes and a synth starts zooming in and out, though the track could probably have done without that. There’s a pause in the vocals, and brass comes in over the progression, backed by piano arpeggios. This section returns at the end of the track but with a soundscape of desolate synths accompanying it, adding and extra dimension, The lyrics start off with “We threw our hearts into the sea” and at one point go “Can we keep our bearings straight, or will we be blown of course?”

 

Track IV (Schizo): An aggressive hip-hop track. The first line of the chorus uses some interesting synth sounds, and there’s a cool riff toward the end. On the tape, this track lives up to its name.

 

Track V (Ocean and Air): A poorly played flute melody gives way for a drummer counting in. Then a sharp guitar riff starts off in a new direction. The guitars are prominent and use a lot of distortion throughout the song, making it sound clean. The chorus is wordless. “I dove into that freezing sea with a parasite attached to me”. Later in the song the vocalist tries to remember what he did and who he was with that night.

 

Track VI (Kinesiophobia): The fear of movement. The song starts off with nice percussion, some keys and bass, and melodic guitars playing an almost falling riff. After a couple of repetitions strings come in, then harmonies. It’s a very pleasant track, and it uses many layers giving it a full sound. After two minutes the song ends, and it feels too early. I feel that I know this band, but it might be because they remind me of Lost in the Trees. The year attached says 2006, so it could very well be some of their early work.

 

Track VII (Pharisees): A poem criticizing the Christian church and Christianity, describing it as “sin in eternal hymn.” It states that religion is something to feed the masses to brainwashing them, and makes greedy priests rich. (I pretty much agree with it).

 

Track VIII (Outbreak): More hip-hop. It uses breathing and shouting as rhythms, and the song focuses mostly on how you can use the voice. There’s only drums and bass otherwise. Interesting. The lyrics also mention religious aspects, so maybe it’s connected to track VII?

 

Track IX (The Heat): This is definitely from the 90’s. A song based around acoustic guitar strumming and a lively bass line. It borrows a lot from the 60’s in terms of harmonies and instrumentation, and there’s a harmonic bit before the en which is really nice. The last part is instrumental and uses a synth sound, which was surprising considering it's Britpop or borrows a lot from it.

 

Track X (The Adventure): Atmospheric, solemn electric guitar chords set the scene. Then the singer’s voice and an electronic beat. This is a well-produced track, with a nice balance and soundscape. The synths during the chorus especially, and the harmonies really add a lot. She has a distinct, smoky and beautiful voice. “People are talking, let them talk” and “we’re dancing in the world alone” are key lyrics here. “They study business, I study the floor” is a lyric I liked.

 

Track XI (Grays): An easy-going track, even at the height of its power. Electric piano, drum-set, acoustic and electric guitar are prominent, and in the chorus synths add a nice backdrop. The lyrics are the main focus, and “don’t waste your time” seems to be the lesson here.

 

Track XII (Reality): Auto-tuned or tampered vocal harmonies with piano and strings as the main accompaniment, progresses to include drum-set and electric guitar. I haven’t listened to them in forever, but could this be Imogen Heap?

 

Track XIII (My Man): Starts out as a pianoballad, but ends up a full out, over the top affair. “I’m in love”. This is in the beginning of the relationship.

 

Track XIV (Explanations): Acousitc guitar picking, and vocals following the guitar’s pattern. Deep strings are added first, then the whole spectrum drowns out the singer for a few bars. At the end we’re back with just acoustic guitar with a little back-up from synths. The song uses a lot of repetition, and it’s mostly the same picking pattern throughout, though the chords are altered by the deeper strings’ bass notes.

 

Track XV (Prologue): A slow track, but with grit and energy. It begins with a slow drumbeat, piano chords and the singer’s grainy voice. Then it builds up gradually, adding two electric guitars, bass, backup vocals and energy to the repeating progression. The lyrics and the vocals are the main focus. “It’s not that I wanted to hurt you” is the lyric that repeats. After about six minutes there’s a tempo change, a harmonica bit and a distorted guitar solo. The rest of the way it’s Americana/blues rock, and a good way to end the tape. I’m fairly sure that this is off Titus Andronicus’ last record, but if it isn’t you

should check them out.

 

Even though a lot of the tracks aren’t stuff I’d normally listen to, I enjoyed the concept of the tape as a whole. There were tracks that I liked and made me curious: six, seven, nine, ten, eleven and fifteen. Thanks again, and good work on the composition of the tape. Very much looking forward to seeing the tracklist.

 

And finally, here is your response (click the spoiler button):

 

So guess what

 

 

Finally finished the review! First of all I’d like to thank my mixtape partner for an awesome tape. There’s a lot of effort and thought put into this, and I enjoyed it very much. The mixtape is named “This Heat and the Adventure”, and the music is credited to Human Panic.

There’s also artwork for tape, which depicts the tail half of a blue shark, painted on a white background. I’m curious to if there’s a thought behind it, and behind the titles etc. Anyway, here we go:

 

Well thanks for you to take the listen. The title of the album is a two-fold concept: the former is the title of an early 70's-mid 80's experimental rock band that had such an abrasive and loud sound, and had a somewhat political agenda in the music. The latter half is mostly reference to an old Atari 2600 game called Adventure, popularized for having the first Easter egg. Human Panic is going to be my regular pseudonym for the mixtapes. The album concept though is, as you say, a relationship in reverse, but it is also the protagonist dealing with such a world that is filled with political agenda, propaganda, and other trivialities, so he is somewhat being self-aware. Anyways, on with the response.

 

Track I (Conclusions): The tape starts off with a short track, only a minute and a half. There’s a synth arpeggio, a piano laying down chords at every change, and more synths adding to the atmosphere of the track. The lyrics come in at the start: “I really wouldn’t mind if you burned in hell”. It’s a man’s voice, and it’s full of echo. At the only chorus, a steady bass line enters and ad a small build up. Then the track ends suddenly and a voice (my partner’s?) says welcome. It sounds as though the track could have been longer. Was it edited? This isn’t a track I’d have used for an opener, but since the mixtape is kind of in reverse it works well.

 

This is supposed to be a short track as some of the songs on here are supposed to be short, and lingers on purpose. I started off with the protagonist who really has a great hatred with their partner at night but end up having strange feelings of regret, displaying his/her bipolar emotions. It also plays off how this is a "world of giants," that there are other corrupt forces at play in the song. This is the intro to YC the Cynic's GNK, an album based off power and religion, and the title is "World of Giants."

 

Track II (Faces): An unusually instrumented and composed track, which uses many sharp sounds on top of softer sounds, like an organ. Screeching, sharp guitars, which lie on top of the vocals are the most prominent instrument. There’s a lot of angst in this song, and the singer is practically screaming at certain points. It’s hard to make out lyrics, but it sounds as if he’s addressing “Yvonne” or “Ivan”.

 

I had second thoughts with this track because while it is very noisy and torturous, the lyrical content did mention a name (the song in reality is about someone in the band), and I wanted the album to relate more by being more generalized. I wanted to include it out of musical rather than lyrical content in the end. This is the band Xiu Xiu on their debut album, and this track is "Homonulus."

 

Track III (&Seperations): A chord progression played on piano makes way for a voice which reminds me of Dry The River. The progression changes and a synth starts zooming in and out, though the track could probably have done without that. There’s a pause in the vocals, and brass comes in over the progression, backed by piano arpeggios. This section returns at the end of the track but with a soundscape of desolate synths accompanying it, adding and extra dimension, The lyrics start off with “We threw our hearts into the sea” and at one point go “Can we keep our bearings straight, or will we be blown of course?”

 

This is called "Boat Song" by the debuting Woodkid. This is the side with the analogy of a relationship compared to a boat, teetering and wandering aimlessly. I liked this one because the music was supposed to be imagery or rather the mimicking of the sea. This mostly relates since this is meaning that this aimless wandering is costing great damage to the relationship.

 

Track IV (Schizo): An aggressive hip-hop track. The first line of the chorus uses some interesting synth sounds, and there’s a cool riff toward the end. On the tape, this track lives up to its name.

 

I am fond of your interest to this hip hop track, and yes it does live up to the name. This is a song about schizophrenia, and though this is a bit redundant, since it's a track of the tortured mind, I wanted to show the constant waves of feelings of how the world (or one's world) is crumbling around a person along with their human self. This is the Sacramento experimental hip hop artist Death Grips from a song from their famous album The Money Store.

 

Track V (Ocean and Air): A poorly played flute melody gives way for a drummer counting in. Then a sharp guitar riff starts off in a new direction. The guitars are prominent and use a lot of distortion throughout the song, making it sound clean. The chorus is wordless. “I dove into that freezing sea with a parasite attached to me”. Later in the song the vocalist tries to remember what he did and who he was with that night.

 

This song is supposed to a small transition as it provides a comic relief musically but still stay in concept lyrically to the analogy of one and the sea, and as you say wondering who you are with the schizophrenia the protagonist might have. This is the song "Sea Ghost" by the legendary indie/lo-fi band The Unicorns. Their music is supposed to sound poor-like and silly, but their one only album has brought them to such influence and revolutionized a part of the pop and indie world. I highly suggest listening to them.

 

Track VI (Kinesiophobia): The fear of movement. The song starts off with nice percussion, some keys and bass, and melodic guitars playing an almost falling riff. After a couple of repetitions strings come in, then harmonies. It’s a very pleasant track, and it uses many layers giving it a full sound. After two minutes the song ends, and it feels too early. I feel that I know this band, but it might be because they remind me of Lost in the Trees. The year attached says 2006, so it could very well be some of their early work.

 

Again, sorry if it was a short track :P. This is the wonderful work of Copeland, a song off of their Eat, Sleep, Repeat album. I guess this is a transition from the relationship phase to a backdrop of the world that is set around the protagonist. Other than that, this song is purposely a part of a connection to other songs off the album.

 

Track VII (Pharisees): A poem criticizing the Christian church and Christianity, describing it as “sin in eternal hymn.” It states that religion is something to feed the masses to brainwashing them, and makes greedy priests rich. (I pretty much agree with it).

 

When I first heard this song, it took me a bit to realized this is criticism to the point of how religion (mostly Christianity and Catholicism) has become a corrupt entity that is not only corrupting the world at large, but also gaining a reputation that many who serve the concept of the religion to feel disgusted by such a hypocritical religion. The latter is mostly the feelings that go along with track IX. This is called "Religion" and is by Public Image Ltd.

 

Track VIII (Outbreak): More hip-hop. It uses breathing and shouting as rhythms, and the song focuses mostly on how you can use the voice. There’s only drums and bass otherwise. Interesting. The lyrics also mention religious aspects, so maybe it’s connected to track VII?

 

I was making this to be connecting to track VII and IX in a way. I'm surprised you didn't recognize the artist since the Yeezus album has been getting so much hype on "Best of 2013" music lists for many magazines (though I don't like that it gets the number one spot all the time, it's not even a good album, but it's fun to listen to). This is Kanye West's "Black Skinhead" and it mostly relates to racism and a bit with religion. When I think back on it, I keep thinking how I could have changed the songs to make the mixtape feel like it makes more sense. :P

 

Track IX (The Heat): This is definitely from the 90’s. A song based around acoustic guitar strumming and a lively bass line. It borrows a lot from the 60’s in terms of harmonies and instrumentation, and there’s a harmonic bit before the en which is really nice. The last part is instrumental and uses a synth sound, which was surprising considering it's Britpop or borrows a lot from it.

 

Yes it is 90's. This is a band that should be more well known, and this is the song "Green Typewriters IV" performed by the band The Olivia Tremor Control, a band that has become a favorite of mine over the course year. Lyrically, this fits in the mixtape to be saying that the protagonist is tired about the world events, the world corruption and tries to see everything in a newer and more positive viewpoint.

 

Track X (The Adventure): Atmospheric, solemn electric guitar chords set the scene. Then the singer’s voice and an electronic beat. This is a well-produced track, with a nice balance and soundscape. The synths during the chorus especially, and the harmonies really add a lot. She has a distinct, smoky and beautiful voice. “People are talking, let them talk” and “we’re dancing in the world alone” are key lyrics here. “They study business, I study the floor” is a lyric I liked.

 

Thought you would like it. This is Lorde and her final song on the album "A World Alone." This fits mostly for the sake of saying that "this is me, that is them."

 

Track XI (Grays): An easy-going track, even at the height of its power. Electric piano, drum-set, acoustic and electric guitar are prominent, and in the chorus synths add a nice backdrop. The lyrics are the main focus, and “don’t waste your time” seems to be the lesson here.

 

This was my favorite track and a most surprising performance coming from the band Cage the Elephant. You are right that this is mostly a track about not wasting time and using it for something meaningful.

 

Track XII (Reality): Auto-tuned or tampered vocal harmonies with piano and strings as the main accompaniment, progresses to include drum-set and electric guitar. I haven’t listened to them in forever, but could this be Imogen Heap?

 

Sadly, no this is not Imogen Heap. This is the Christian rock band Superchick off their last album Rock What You Got. After finishing this mixtape, I felt like I put too many ballad sounding songs, or rather too many soft sounding tracks. This song though, deals mostly with being able to calm down and cope with the situation at hand.

 

Track XIII (My Man): Starts out as a pianoballad, but ends up a full out, over the top affair. “I’m in love”. This is in the beginning of the relationship.

 

I was going towards finding new love but I guess this will fit for a relationship in reverse. I was wondering if you would have figured out that this was song was about a relationship between two guys, since it's a male vocalist who sings about his "prince." I was deciding against placing this song since it adds more to the already a bit many slow, piano ballad tracks already present in this mixtape, but I loved The Irrepressibles and wanted to put some of their work on here.

 

Track XIV (Explanations): Acousitc guitar picking, and vocals following the guitar’s pattern. Deep strings are added first, then the whole spectrum drowns out the singer for a few bars. At the end we’re back with just acoustic guitar with a little back-up from synths. The song uses a lot of repetition, and it’s mostly the same picking pattern throughout, though the chords are altered by the deeper strings’ bass notes.

 

Another artist and a track I loved off of their new album Savior, my favorite off of this year. This is Shark? (yes, with the "?" on it), and they are mostly a garage rock band. Though your comment doesn't really say whether you liked it or not, I suggest a listen to this band. As of lyrically, it's mostly the satisfaction in waiting for someone.

 

Track XV (Prologue): A slow track, but with grit and energy. It begins with a slow drumbeat, piano chords and the singer’s grainy voice. Then it builds up gradually, adding two electric guitars, bass, backup vocals and energy to the repeating progression. The lyrics and the vocals are the main focus. “It’s not that I wanted to hurt you” is the lyric that repeats. After about six minutes there’s a tempo change, a harmonica bit and a distorted guitar solo. The rest of the way it’s Americana/blues rock, and a good way to end the tape. I’m fairly sure that this is off Titus Andronicus’ last record, but if it isn’t you should check them out.

 

You are entirely right that this is Titus Andronicus off their last album Local Business. I wanted the mixtape to come around full circle, seeing that both the starting track and this track have some lyrical similarities. I'm glad you liked it. Took me a lot of deciding for which track from Andronicus to use. :P

 

Even though a lot of the tracks aren’t stuff I’d normally listen to, I enjoyed the concept of the tape as a whole. There were tracks that I liked and made me curious: six, seven, nine, ten, eleven and fifteen. Thanks again, and good work on the composition of the tape. Very much looking forward to seeing the tracklist.

 

I'm glad you listened to things you're not used to hearing, better music experience to have. I tried to make the concept of the mixtape work, and I'm still not satisfied with how it turned out. I always listen to newer content and different genres, which give me more cherries to pick but I wished I could have put different songs on there from the newer cherries I have found. Anyways, I digress. Here is the tracklisting for your researching pleasures, and this ends my response. Thanks for listening.

Heeey. I'm really sorry for the long wait! I owe you an apology. I was first busy with tests in school, and then with Christmas and stuff. Add a bit lazy too. :sweatdrop:

 

So. My mixtape is titled "alexbb" and has a low quality pic of someone, who I'm pretty sure is Alex James on a Blur concert, as its artwork :P

 

Let's move onto the tape:

 

1. The first track is a calm, 2 minutes long string quartet piece. It serves as a nice opener and a good contrast to the Christmas-shopping buzz that was going on these days. Leaves me wondering how this tape will evolve.

 

2. Someone picking an acoustic guitar until they find some rhythm and then the song really starts. This reminds me of Spanish-guitar a bit actually, though it's certainly not that. An english-speaking singer sings about how he's lost and wonders if there's anywhere to go. The overall athmosphere of the song is as calm as the first track, so it segues really nicely.

 

3. Another acoustic track, though this one is a bit more upbeat. And the singer actually sings in a foreign language, which I think is French, but as a non-speaker I can't be sure. The only word I understood was "whiskey" haha. This song actually sounds as if it would have been played in a pub in mid-last-century. I don't really listen to stuff like this, but it's enjoyable.

 

4. This one's different from the previous tracks, it's more of a dance rock song. It's heavy on high-pitched woo-hoo-hooos and I wanna loooove youuus. Not really a thing I would listen to, to be honest. But I wanna dance to it. I can imagine it playing in a 70s disco club.

 

5. Things got weirder here. There's some interesting percussion, which sounds a bit Oriental-influenced to me. There are also electronically processed vocals. I have no idea what they are singing about. I must say that I have no idea who this artist might be.

 

6. This is either an electronic dance track with latino percussion, or there's something wrong with my ears. It might be Kraftwerk or something krautrock. Some children's vocals appear occasionally througout the song. I can't tell if this is something modern or something from the last century that was ahead of its time.

 

7. Let me see you go back, back, forth, forth. Mmmmm. This always keeps playing in my head after I finish listening to this tape. And I enjoy it. This has elements of rnb, hip hop, soul and funk. It totally reminds me of that girl-group TLC. Me likes!

 

8. This one's more minimalistic. A female singer sings smoothly over a simple electronic drums loop and synthesized strings or whatever that is. The track doesn't really make me excited, but I'm still quite interested to know who this is.

 

9. Haaah haaah wuooouah haah haaah *short electric guitar solo* then RAPPING! I would never expect somebody to start rapping after that wannabe-badass guitar solo. There's another solo later in the track. I'm still relatively new to rap, but the rapping parts of this song are nice.

 

10. That intro! Hey I think I've heard this many times on the radio, but I have no idea who the artist is, or what the song is called. I like it though. It's an electronic track with vocals really low in the mix, repeating I could never be yours in the chorus. Who is it?

 

11. This is a guitar powered track with a man weeping how he's so scared and doesn't know what to do if his girl dies. :stunned: I don't know if he's so madly in love with her or if she suffers from some bad disease. And well later in the song she actually dies and the singer doesn't know what to do again and then it ends. Wow? Well I'm definetely sorry for him ;__;

 

12. Took me a bit to recognize this song, but it's Only Heather by Wild Nothing. I really really love it. I guess I should be listening to them a lot more. I think I listened to their latest album a few times and put it on my AOTY 2012 list, but I don't really remember the songs anymore. Thanks for reminding me of this beautiful song :heart:

 

13. A nice piano based song with a female French singer. She reminds me of Coeur de Pirate which one boy on tumblr made me listen to once hahaha. I could listen to more of this, who is it?

 

14. Another female French singer. I guess the mixtape maker really likes that language. I actually adore it too and I'd love to learn it once. It's a popular thought - but it really sounds romantic. Just like this song. This song also has a feel of an older song, and I'm pretty sure it is an old French classic.

 

15. A minute long track with a female opera singer singing really quietly. She doesn't sound really happy, but she sounds beautiful. Works good as an interlude.

 

16. An rnb/hip hop song. Reminds me a looot of Frank Ocean who I love. All I want is you, all I want is you now. Sugaaar! Now that you're goone, goone, goone. Thank you for finding me an alternative for Frank Ocean. Perfect closer and definetely my favourite on this tape.

 

Overall, this was a nice journey through the music genres. There was classical music, rock, disco, hip hop, krautrock, rnb, soul, dream pop and heck - even opera! Despite that genre mish-mash, the whole tape felt really cohesive. Great job there. Thank you very much! :heart: Am I allowed to call this tape the musical equivalent of Alex James? :wacky:

 

Oh and once again I'm really really sorry for this belated review, due to final tests in school before holidays, and then the Christmas holidays itselves. I can look at this tape as a cool christmas present though!

And finally, here is your response (click the spoiler button

 

Wow, I recognized a lot more names here than I thought I would. Woodkid, Death Grips, Xiu Xiu etc. Didn't start to think that that was Kanye, after I've heard so much great about Yeezus and Black Skinhead in particular. It didn't make an impression on me at all, Death Grips was my favorite out of the two. Would never have recognized Cage the Elephant either.

 

Yes, I did notice that he was singing about man, but didn't think much of it :tongue:

 

Copeland sounds very much like Lost in the Trees, I recommend checking them out (short tracks are cool, not complaining).

MMMMM, Woodkid. I approve.

sorry for being a massive poo head and not doing my review yet

i've been away a week or so and if people have an issues pm me ~

Speaking of reviews, I hope my partner liked their tape. I don't know if they did or not, as they haven't given me their review yet. I really would like one, though, if (s)he has time.

Speaking of reviews, I hope my partner liked their tape. I don't know if they did or not, as they haven't given me their review yet. I really would like one, though, if (s)he has time.

 

Of course they liked it, your tapes are always great! ;)

 

I'm still waiting for the tracklisting of the tape I reviewed :(

^same here

Of course they liked it, your tapes are always great! ;)

 

:blush: You're too sweet. :hug:

violet, i have a tape that i just received at the end of december, and i made fran's tape so it's likely me you two are waiting for :P

sorry for the wait. i will make my replies today or tomorrow.

Do you want me to unstick this thread now?

I mean, I still haven't gotten a review of my tape, and I know several others haven't either, so...

I know it sucks that it's been this long and some haven't got reviews or tapes on this exchange but I'd say you should just count your loses now on this one. I was wondering if it's time to start Exchange #17? Anyone else agree or interested?

I agree it's time to move on.

I agree, I've a playlist already :D

Should we set up a new thread? Or should we wait for more interest? I'm all game for the next exchange, will even host it if no one else wants to

Are we having another one anytime soon?

Hope so, doesn't seem to be enough interest at the moment though… Any suggestions to get it kickstarted?

Who will be the host? IMO you can just create the thread and get it started already.

I'll host it if no one else minds? I'll start the thread now too :)
