dan: it is a song about a superhero named tony. it's called 'tony's theme'.

geeta: no but I think I have put a plan song on every tape I've made this year save for the sea and cake one that I made by just leaving 5 cds on shuffle and recording it.

jess: shut up you asswipe I was serious.

Josh, Sunday, 9 June 2002 00:00 (twenty-one years ago) link

Was there a theme? Was the sequence important? By asking these questions do I let you guys show how mental I actually am about making mix CDs? Can someone tell me the way to the toilet? Thanks.

cuba libre (nathalie), Sunday, 9 June 2002 00:00 (twenty-one years ago) link

theme: no

sequence: yes insofar as that's the way I wanted it. gotta put the things I think my roommate won't like as much in strategic places, of course.

Josh, Sunday, 9 June 2002 00:00 (twenty-one years ago) link

sometimes i think you only own like 25 cds.

jess, Sunday, 9 June 2002 00:00 (twenty-one years ago) link

27

Josh, Sunday, 9 June 2002 00:00 (twenty-one years ago) link

andy: it's nowhere near as swank as yours.

Josh, Sunday, 9 June 2002 00:00 (twenty-one years ago) link

You could always post it on the Art of the Mix site.

Quite impressed by the Yo La Tengo cover version.

Since hearing Soulwax's 2 Many DJs CD I, however, have mix tape block.

Until I get my hands on software that allows me to have Salt 'n' Pepa singing over the Stooges or Skee-lo backed by the Breeders, my mix tapes will always be second best.

Bert, Sunday, 9 June 2002 00:00 (twenty-one years ago) link

josh you are a fucking god make me a tape and i will love you forever.

anthony, Sunday, 9 June 2002 00:00 (twenty-one years ago) link

Forever = Long Time

Therefore...

...you know where I'm going with this. Just... Sorry.

JM, Sunday, 9 June 2002 00:00 (twenty-one years ago) link

Bert, THIRD best since I make GRATE ones as well. If only because I too am belgian. We can OBJECTIVELY choose the tunes so they fit together PERFECTLY.

cuba libre (nathalie), Monday, 10 June 2002 00:00 (twenty-one years ago) link

I've heard of most of these. I am disappointed in you Kortbein. Oh yeah also you are a rockist etc etc, this tape is RUB because it haf the BEATLES on it where o where is the Fall/Moldy Peaches/Help I'm A Fish eh?

Sarah, Monday, 10 June 2002 00:00 (twenty-one years ago) link

there is a band called help i'm a fish? WHAT IS THE WORLD COMING TO etc. oooohh mmm neutral milk hotel, must remember to drive Rick bonkers with some of that crazy stuff when i get home...

katie, Monday, 10 June 2002 00:00 (twenty-one years ago) link

GRRRRR

RickyT, Monday, 10 June 2002 00:00 (twenty-one years ago) link

The Jeff Magnum live CD is good! I recommend that!

jel --, Monday, 10 June 2002 00:00 (twenty-one years ago) link

ooh i'll put that on my "things to buy" list. oh come on Rick you always choose the music and drive me mad with your crazy heavy metal records. what about listening to some of what the kids want, eh? ;)

katie, Monday, 10 June 2002 00:00 (twenty-one years ago) link

the kids want NMH? wipe them out... ALL of them

Alan T, Monday, 10 June 2002 00:00 (twenty-one years ago) link

Drive Like Jehu are not heavy metal!

RickyT, Monday, 10 June 2002 00:00 (twenty-one years ago) link

Rick is playing it = it is heavy metal. heheheh he always gets so cross when i accuse him of listening to heavy metal, it's so cute!

katie, Monday, 10 June 2002 00:00 (twenty-one years ago) link

Thing is, I do actually have some metal stuff, but DLJ are not it. Soundgarden on the other hand...

RickyT, Monday, 10 June 2002 00:00 (twenty-one years ago) link

SPOONMAN! DUH DUH DUH DUH DUH! DUH DUH DUUUUUHHH etc etc etc...

katie, Monday, 10 June 2002 00:00 (twenty-one years ago) link

Soundgarden worship at the altar of rock...get temple of the dog, that's great!

jel --, Monday, 10 June 2002 00:00 (twenty-one years ago) link

i only like the song about the spoons!

katie, Monday, 10 June 2002 00:00 (twenty-one years ago) link

using ilx as your own personal filing system, classic or dud

Josh, Friday, 21 June 2002 00:00 (twenty-one years ago) link

have been thinking that I should just make one tape and start making copies of it

Josh, Friday, 21 June 2002 00:00 (twenty-one years ago) link

then again this one had no bitchez or hoez

Josh, Friday, 21 June 2002 00:00 (twenty-one years ago) link

And I've heard 5 songs on it. k-rub.

(The first has 3, which is bad enough)

Graham, Friday, 21 June 2002 00:00 (twenty-one years ago) link

i love two step!! it sounded so nice when i saw low play last summer

Ron, Saturday, 22 June 2002 00:00 (twenty-one years ago) link

yeah man I hate it when I hear songs I've heard before

Josh, Saturday, 22 June 2002 00:00 (twenty-one years ago) link

Buying 12 or so records you've never heard and a blank CDR + making a mix with a song from each picked at random = best method evah. I did this once...

... er, no. I cannot tell a lie.

I closed the mix with Dio's Rainbow in the Dark, which I had heard before.

Andy K, Saturday, 22 June 2002 00:00 (twenty-one years ago) link

Yes, but I'm rubbish and a benchmark of what you shouldn't be doing.

Graham, Saturday, 22 June 2002 00:00 (twenty-one years ago) link

josh, do you want to turn yer mate into a manic depressive?

nath @ woik, Saturday, 22 June 2002 00:00 (twenty-one years ago) link

haha andy we are not all rich kings sitting atop vast piles of wealth with which to get cds. or amg writers.

graham, as long as you put it that way then I am inclined to agree.

Josh, Saturday, 22 June 2002 00:00 (twenty-one years ago) link

Everybody now a) (its a cdr) Tom Waits - I Dont Wanna Grow Up, The Vasilines - Jesus Doesnt Want me For A Sunbeam, Sloan Dreaming Of You, Big Star - Thirteen, The Weakerthans - Left and Leaving, Rheostatics - Clair (live), Serge Gainsborough - je Taime... moi non plus, Art Bergman - Hospital Song (earlier electric version), Aphex Twin - Xtal, Black Eyes - January, Mojave 3 - Bringing Me Home again, 13th Floor Elevators - Splash, Cowboy Junkies - 200 Miles, Stone Roses - This Is The One, Rheostatics - You Are Very Star.

Im becoming convinced its my job to spread the love of Art Bergmans music around.

Mr Noodles, Sunday, 23 June 2002 00:00 (twenty-one years ago) link

Haha Josh no see it's just that my priorities are wrong -- I bought actual real clothes for the first time in ovah a year last wkend.

Favorite part of this mix: the part where it goes from "I'll come running to tie your shoes" to "Fucking kill her fucking kill her kill her already kill her," etc.

Andy K, Sunday, 23 June 2002 00:00 (twenty-one years ago) link

3 is the magic number followed by Jus 1 Kiss, nice.

Ronan, Sunday, 23 June 2002 00:00 (twenty-one years ago) link

andy the shellac was a crowd-pleaser for sure! usually it's the gangsta rap (oh it's so awful and nasty) that draws the comments from the girls my roommate plays the tape for. don't know if any of them have caught the juxtaposition tho.

people generally put too many tracks on mixes I think

cozen (Cozen), Saturday, 17 December 2005 14:20 (eighteen years ago) link

i lost it on the old computer, i'm afraid. it's too jaunty for that tape anyway, i put mine after 'overnight celebrity' by twista n kanye i think! ur probly right about too many trax tho.

hold tight the private caller (mwah), Saturday, 17 December 2005 14:24 (eighteen years ago) link

DVD-Rs will overtake CDRs in popularity, MP3 decoding capability will become the norm in hi-fis, leading to 1000 track mixes. "Did you like the transition between track 562 and 563? I spent ages getting that right."

Alba (Alba), Saturday, 17 December 2005 14:25 (eighteen years ago) link

Nice fit for one side of a c90, too. Kudos, justin!
