offsrpung mix CD - reminder, update and thanks
Replies
I sent mine out and I got the one from Kanachick, and I think the one from Lea is in the mail and should be in my hot little hands in the next few days. :D
Yep, Meghan, you should get it if it doesn't end up languishing in the mire known as The Woodlands post office.
BTW - Meghans CD was awesome, people! This was the best idea.
Yeah, I wish we could share our cds publicly with each other, because DaddyGeekBoy's cd to me was spot on! I am sure other people would enjoy is as well.
This has been fun!
I still get to look forward to Kiwi's cd that should be here any day now. Woo-Hoo!
I know Kiwi has sent hers to me. I'll be making Shreddd's and Kiwi's this weekend now that class is finished and I can do something other than homework.
I was all fired up, and then I went on a trip and forgot. Will get them out this week.
I still haven't heard from sabine louise. Where are you, sabine louise?
I got my first one this week! I love it! (Thank you, Doublebooked!) I'll be sending mine out in the coming week.
Thanks again for facilitating, shreddd.
I had Itunes issues. They are burnt and waiting to go in the mail on Monday.
I've sent both of mine out and know one was received, received one, and heard that two more (ambitious!) were in the mail to me. Meghan's CD's theme was inspired. The music is almost all new to me (literally and in genre) and I am enjoying hearing it and figuring out if I like it or not.
You could post the track list Ylime...
I sent both of mine out on Monday, and I think BoL's is en route from Australia. I'd be curious to see track lists from others!
I thought my husband sent them before I left for CA on thursday and sent little notes to my folks, but I got home this morning and there they were, cute as could be, on my kitchen table. sigh.
So MOnday it is!
I mailed mine last Monday so hopefully they'll arrive soon.
I haven't gotten any yet but I'm looking forward to them.
Megling...what is it with the husbands this week? Same here!
Meghan - I'm so sorry - I'm going to take it myself this time! > (
Ylime...so glad you liked it!
BoL...yours is coming soon. I got bogged down with work, but it's almost done. I will get it out this week. Promise!!!
I'd be happy to post the playlists for any of the mixes I made or I can email them out. Just let me know.
This has been tons o' fun.
I've received mine from Ylime and have really enjoyed it (I've been driving my husband crazy with "Cornbread").
I've also sent both of mine out, so I hope they get to my buddies soon (if they haven't already).
This has been really fun! We should do it again sometime. Thanks again to Shreddd for coordinating!
PBS: Yeah, I have been mesmerized by Cornbread by Dave Matthews. I can't get enough.
DGB, I love the Trey Anastasio track! But most of them hit happy places.
Yes, Shreddd, thanks for setting this up. It has worked out much better than I expected!
PBS and Ylime....Cornbread is my fave track from that mix too.
i've been busy, v. v. busy, but hadn't forgot - compiling list, in between other commitments. will be done shortly!!
I've received one, and I was waiting for a particular song to come in. It just took ages, but they're ready to go now. :D
JD, Lady Grey and MNM -I'm back and will message my recipients and little givers soon for address exchange. I've compiled my lists too!
MNM, no problem, my mom always said "patience is a virtue." I will just keep listening to Kanachick's mix. I am really digging Ruthie Foster. She is someone I feel like I have heard of and should have been listening to already but wasn't.
I love soundtracks and until I discovered amazon and pandora.com that was the main inspiration for my musical collecting. But I had way too many songs to make up just one cd, so I limited myself to music from tv shows and television commercials. If my brain was functioning a little better I would have been able to put a few more songs on that related to the theme. As it is after I sent the cd I remembered that I wanted to put on Breathe by Telepopmusik which is from a Mitsubishi Outlander commercial. It is very light, but similar to some of the others with a bit of an industrial feeling. I believe that some people call it "chill" or "chill out" music.
I sent out 2 and 1 has already come in. The other has a long way to go before it gets here (holla Aussies!). I am loving this. It is like dating again.
Thanks for the reminder-- I'll get right on that.
Meghan - If you're into the Ambient/Dub type stuff, you might check out www.waveformrecords.com or www.starstreams.com.
I also highly recommend the Groove Salad station on somaFM.com.
I love Groove Salad on Soma. I listen to that at work sometimes. Thanks I will check out the other sites.
I'm working on it, I promise. I've got a track list, I just need to do the rest. Don't give up on me, Cathbuzz and Jen! And, thanks Cathbuzz. Great CD.
