mixtape soundclash

[killer b]

keep 'em coming...

 

[perplexis]

Oh FFS. If I'd known there was more time I'd have polished my mix a bit!
May do that anyway, having re-listened, there are some things I want to tweak....

 

[killer b]

hey, i wouldn't have bothered extending, but the poll was looking a bit barren.

 

[perplexis]

Hmm, yeah, fairymuff I suppose. But if I get some time over the weekend I'm going to send you a revised edition.
edit: that reads really sour! It's not meant to

 

[hiccup]

How many mixes are there so far?

 

[killer b]

three... i'm sure we'll have some more soon though.

 

[perplexis]

three... i'm sure we'll have some more soon though.

Nah, fuck that I want a shot a bronze!

 

[killer b]

is there going to be any more entries? i'll hold on till next week sometime if so, otherwise i'll sort it out over the next few days...

 

[El Jefe]

i do still want to do one, but I'm tied up today. I'll try tomorrow, or i'll give in

 

[killer b]

i'm happy to hold it a few more days if it gets the poll looking a bit more crowded. don't give up on us jeff!

 

[Paulie Tandoori]

right, have borrowed a lead off a bloke down the pub and am aiming to sort something out on tuesday. honest.

 

[perplexis]

So, um, when does this happen?
If I wait much longer killer b is going to have to put me on ignore to stop me repeatedly sending revised versions in

 

[killer b]

i think i'm giving it till weds, so pauli's can be included. and jeff's, if he got round to it...

 

[Paulie Tandoori]

thanx killer b. just tried first mix and got the levels horrendously wrong, so scrapping that and will have another bash tomorrow.

 

[perplexis]

Ha ha ha. Hark at the perfectionist. "Levels" indeed. Real men don't worry about levels, if you want to compete with me the whole thing should sound like it's been recorded on a worn out c60, clipped to fuck and mixed with a crossfader made of dust...
</smacktalk>

 

[hiccup]

A worn out c60? You were lucky. I recorded my mix on a wax cylinder, with hair I had to pluck from my own nose.

 

[perplexis]

Wax cylinder, yeah! That's what I'm talking about.
The C60 was just an easy option for Paulie.
I recorded mine on a pianola roll. I punched the holes out with my teeth.

</smacktalk>

my crossfader is made of dust, more or less

nah, fucked it up something awful, listening back was like wrapping your head in a blanket, then sticking your head in a bucket and hitting it with a lump hammer. it's all new and scary to me, this new fangled electronic world. i miss c30, c60, c90.......

 

[El Jefe]

Mine's happening tonight. I'm having trouble not being obvious it's me, so people don't vote for it cos they think i'm a cunt

 

[perplexis]

It's kind of hard to make the mix unidentifiable if people on here know your style/taste/proclivities. I've never put any mixes up here so I guess it'll be a surprise to everyone, but blatantly people will be able to tell if they look through posting histories. Hopefully that won't be what it'll descend to and people will just be open to the beats....
</idealist>

 

[El Jefe]

Beats?

bugger

(erases 80 minutes of 1920s blues)

 

[perplexis]

(((blues)))

Maybe I should have said "tunes". Or "tracks". Or even "songs".
I know nothing.

 

[killer b]

wicked. looks like we'll be having 6 entrants if jeff & paulie come through - that sounds about right to me.

 

[El Jefe]

nearly done

it's shit

 

[Paulie Tandoori]

finished and sent

 

[killer b]

cool. i look forward to being crowned king of the music forum.

 

[perplexis]

Awesome. I look forward to using my wooden spoon

 

[El Jefe]

I just scrapped that one

but the next one is going to be a doozy

 

[killer b]

bloody hell. it better had be...

 

[El Jefe]

Done.

So how do we stop people canvassing in PM and ruining the anonymity
