I have no clue who mine is, at least you've got an idea :laugh4:

I've written a review and still don't know who made mine, I'd quite like to know what some of the songs are :D Come out from hiding fellow mixtaper lol

Lostprophets - The Betrayed. Maybe isn't everyones cup of tea but I like it. Oh and whoever it was that mentioned Delphic...nice choice ;) EDIT: I'd also like to mention The Courteeners, new album out on the 22nd of February I think :D

Ok you've changed your username slightly and I didn't realise this was mine :embarrassed::laugh3: So here's the tracklist Delphic - This Momentary Damien Rice - Volcano (It's a male ;) lol) Turin Brakes - Dark On Fire Jack's Mannequin - Dark Blue Doves - Sky Start's Falling Gary Go - Black And White Days Empire Of The Sun - Standing On The Shore Florence And The Machine - Drumming Song Fyfe Dangerfield - When You Walk In The Room Jack Penate - Tonight's Today Switchfoot - Meant To Live The Couteeners - Not Nineteen Forever Twin Atlantic - You're Turning Into John Wayne Feeder - Come Back Around Don't worry about being too honest! I'd rather you say what you think. I at least hope you found a few tracks there they you might give another listen. I wasn't expecting to be able to pick 14 tracks and have you say you loved them all :laugh3: Oh and don't laugh at Scottish accents!! :laugh3::lol::P Here's the link for anyone else who wants it: http://www.mediafire.com/?ebi2mneimuy

Great choice!! I love Stereophonics and Dakota is always good to rock out to :D

That sounds like a cool programme!! I'd be interested to see the Snow Patrol stuff from it :D I'm a bit gutted today as the pre sale tickets went on for the Glasgow show and I'm so skint right now that I can't afford one :( I'm hoping that I might be able to try and pick one up nearer the time...

My person doesn't seem to be on the list anymore, so I've sent a PM to find out who did get my tape. I've posted my review too and I still don't know who made the mix...

Lady Gargoyle :laugh3::laugh3::laugh3:

Thanks for the link! Nice site :D

Ok so here's my mixtape review...I can't wait to see who my mixtape friend is :cool: Track 1: A purely instrumental number, classical in style. Heavy on the strings and Piano. Normally, classical music isn't my thing at all but on reflection it was quite a good set up for the rest of the tape. Track 2: When it started with the line "When there's nothing left to burn you have to set yourself on fire" being spoken, I was expecting something totally different to what then started. It's an easy going track, which after a few seconds introduces a nice male voice., just under half way through a femal voice comes in which had a Martha Wainwright ish feel to it. Nice tempo to it and something that I will definitely listen to again. I was thinking I should know what it is, but so far I still have no clue Track 3: Straight away I was drawn to this as soon as the guitar started. The more I listen to it the more I think it sounds like Fleet Foxes...I've only heard a couple of their track so I could be WAY off. I like the guitar in it an again it's fairly easy listening. Track 4: Starts of sounding like a country track but then drifts away from there as the tempo picks up. The singers voice is nice but I don't think this one is for me. Sorry :embarrassed: Track 5: Maroon 5 - Not Coming Home. The first of the tracks that I recognised instantly. I loved Songs About Jane when it came out. I haven't listened to the album in a while and hearing this made me go back and have a listen. Track 6: A nice upbeat, punchy little number. The singer has quite a distinctive voice which made me want to listen again. Left me feeling upbeat and I had another listen almost immediately. Track 7: Damien Rice - Amie if I'm not mistaken :D I love Damien Rice, he's got a stunning voice and it's always good to chill out to. Track 8: I do like a nice Piano intro in a song :D After the intro the songs starts with a male voice singing in what I think is French. Accordions come into it and the paino is a constant all the way through. The whole song has a very French sound to it. Not really my cup of tea but it did kinda flow nicely with the other tracks. Track 9: Again, nice piece of piano work at the beginning of the song. A pleasant female voice begins to sing. She has a nice voice, not too subtle, not too in your face. As the song progresses and the drums come in it seems to come to life a bit more. Interesting song. Also, the voice does sound familiar on further listens but I'm still none the wiser as to who it is... Track 10: A bit of an electro feel to the start of this song and then the drum beat comes in. When I first started listening to it, it reminded me very much of Muse. Not that this is a bad thing at all. I think this might be one of my favourite tracks from the mix. I'm interested to find out what it is and do some exploring. Track 11: On first listen sounds a bit bollywood. Also sounds a bit like early panic at the disco with its pace and tempo. If that's a dude singing, then he's also got an impressive vocal range too :stunned::laugh3: Track 12: Nice soft guitar to introduce the song before the piano and percussion comes in. It's a slowish track that saunters along nicely accompanied by a easy on the ear female voice. Like most of the tracks on here it's a breezy little number that would sit well on anyones iPod in their chill out playlist. Track 13: I found myself tapping along to this. It's an upbeat number, made by the nice silky voice that seeps into your ears as you listen. Cool track. Track 14: A 2 minute number with a bit of a jazzy feel to it. It comes across as quite dreary. It didn't really grab me and probably the track I would listen to least on the mixtape. Track 15: Piano track that starts off slowly, does speed up in places but not really enough for me to love it. I did feel at 6 minutes it was slightly long, although the last 2 minutes I think are my favourite part of the song. I do like the voice, whoever it belongs to :laugh3: On reflection it sits nicely as the last song in the mix. In conclusion, this is a nice easy listening mixtape and there are a few gems in there that I'd like to find out what they are and look into the artists further. There's a couple of the songs that I think with a few more listens might grow on me too. As for Damien Rice, thank you!!! Love him and his voice always helps chill me out. Thank you whoever made the tape. I'll wait now to see the tracklist :D Oh btw, I don't remember who's mix had Morning Runner - Burning Benches in there but whoever it was, AWESOME choice! I love that whole album :D

So I'm half way through doing my review, finishing it now :D I don't think the person who should have received my tape has posted a review yet unless I've missed it...

Well I had a listen to mine last night. I'm going to have another listen before I do my review. I'll probably post tonight or tomorrow :D

Wow. That was really good! You've obviuosly got a lot of talent, too much not to do something with it. I agree about the myspace thing. Get yourself a page and get some more people listening, I'm pretty sure you'd get a fair few listeners ;)

I think this guy has way to much time on his hands...

Mines is downloading as I type :dance:

That's the bit that got me too. Wahahahahahaha :laugh3::laugh3::laugh3: Gotta love The Spoof :lol:

I love it!! That's great :D So Funny!! Can't wait to see the whole episode!! :dance:

I've known for years that Alan McGee is an ass (who doesn't like Coldplay) and I don't tend to take any notice of what he says anymore however the majority of that article really riled me up. I'm in agreement that this years Brits nominations aren't the best they've ever been but they do mostly reflect acts that have been popular this year. He needs to wake up and smell the coffee, the days of bands like Oasis etc being top of the pile are gone and a lot more R&B and pop acts are coming through! Deal with it McGee It sounds like he's the one who needs to retire instead of trying to bash Paul McCartney, I mean FFS get a grip!!!

I know this is a really old thread but somehow the fact that Chris's brother had a band completely passed me by :shocked2: I had a listen to a few things on youtube, they sound pretty good :D

I've posted the link for the email on Facebook too!! :D

It does seem a bit much but they have their reasons i guess...

Sending one now :D

Maybe they wouldn't help us...maybe they would but that's not really the way to look at it. People need help and we, in other countries are able to help. They're fellow human beings, they deserve the help, what's happened isn't their fault.

Thanks for all the links and pics guys!! It's nice to catch up on what's been happening since I went to bed at 3am :laugh3:

Right since that's it finished and it's 3am here I'm gonna get off to bed. Night everyone :D
