Mixmaster

so first i guess i have to figure out how to let people know im still posting

but, music stuff

so i really want to start a mixtrading network. ive written about this on facebook and myspace, and so far gotten very little interest. so maybe its just me. but, i do like the idea. Ive already made one and sent it out, so Alex hartzler in evanston is going to be the recipient of the very first josh theme mix, which he requested to be entitled "Just Say No" and be all songs that have either overt or possibly implied antidrug messages. Heres what his mix looked like:

Prologue: Don't Do It!

1. minor threat- straight edge
2. bane- superhero

Act 1: Gateways

3. weezer- say it ain't so
4. the rolling stones- mother's little helper
5. the modern lovers- she cracked
6. tori amos- spark
7. the postal service- this place is a prison

Interlude: Addicted

8. counting crows- perfect blue buildings
9. bright eyes- a line allows progress, a circle does not
10. sebadoh- too pure
11. the offspring- what in the world happened to you?

Act 2: The hard stuff

12. pretty girls make graves- all medicated geniuses
13. dandy warhols- not if you were the last junkie on earth
14. jets to brazil- king medicine
15. third eye blind- semi-charmed life
16. fluorescein- cathy's on crank!
17. sublime- pool shark
18. neil young- the needle and the damage done
19. elliott smith- needle in the hay


i put a lot of time into this one, and im proud of it, but im eager to make more, plus to receive from people (it is a trade after all) so if you have an idea, or just want a mix and want me to come up with an idea, let me know! i really want to do this, it gives me something to think about during these long portland nights (thats not true, im actually both busy and fairly content up here).

so yeah. lets do this.
