I mailed out two avant-psych mixtapes to separate individuals on December 31st. One to United Kingdom and one to Portland.
Most of the time when I’m making a mixtape, I allow no silence once the mixing begins. Notice: Burden Of Friendship (half). Each side of that cassette is 30 minutes long. On this mix, I used about 15 minutes worth of the side and had two or three things playing at the same time as I weaved in and out of the track. Here is part of my mixtape setup: ![]() Nazi Marching And Goose Stepping La Mancha Pecado - Live At Neon Rose (11-19-18) Young Turks Morher - Soothsayer Vernal Crush - 8:53 (Disk One) Burden Of Friendship - Side B (half) Jana En Bertin - English Spoken MVM - Reflections Jan Schellink - Robosapien En De 6 Baby Poppetjs Derryl Parsons - Floating Landscapes Arvo Zylo - Six & Seven Gong - Dynamite Chuck Talks - The Girl Who Screams The Roaring Fleur Mini-Mutations - Track 3 Muzak - Madness From The West Michelle Mercure - A Little Piece / Ghost Before Breakfast Jesus Penis - God Has Everything Under Control The Jonx - The Scent Of Earth Earthmonkey - Moonstah Vox Populi! - Samourai Orbit Service - As If It Were An Accident Watch Repair - Far Asleep Yo La Tengo - Our Way To Fall (Live) Volcano The Bear - Cassettes Of Berlin Illicit Relationship - Concise Relaxation Sacred Cows - Virtual Fantasy The CJ Boyd Sexxxtet - And Indeed There Will Be Time ......why is this thread in non-sonics? |

Two boxes of bank cassettes or cassettes by other artist that you are recording over? Any idea how long the cassettes has been the attic? I have a couple of cassettes of recorded Houston noise radio shows that are now 30 years old and they still play and sound good. |

Mixtape culture appeals to me, but I realise that if I was suddenly transported back to the days where it existed, I'd lose my fucking mind.
I've tried to make some physical cassette mixtapes in the past, but I don't have the equipment to do anything. I think I have one portable player that kinda worked, but I couldn't do it consistently and anyway I don't have enough blank tapes.

romantic illusion. do not miss a playlist is a playlist. i have some giant ones for various occasions. one is a whole bunch of new orleans music. another is a pomodoro one for work. another is for driving. etc. i constantly edit them. |

I have a decade of my annual favorite songs of the year for the last ten years up on mixcloud
https://m.mixcloud.com/2chainz1cup/ I'm still working on 2019. I'm trying to keep it under 3 hours.

Some cassettes are various 80s artists and some are recorded so i record over them. I prefer the iron ones more than chrome ones. It adds the vibe. I think they were there for 19 mayby 25 years and some of them were really great quality. |

I don't think I made many mixtapes in the form of compilations back when I still had a tapedeck. I usually prefer to hear the complete album rather than various songs. What I did do about 12 years ago is to create a compilation for my sister, 3CD's in total before I got too bored with it. It was really fun to make, but very time-consuming. I'll just copy/paste the original notes to save myself from writing it all down again in some other way that basically still states the same.

and these were the three compilations: Quote:
I've played with the idea of some other compilations, especially live versions of one particular song, e.g. Pissing by Low, or Sonic Youth' Diamond Sea but never gotten around to actually do it. Totally offtopic, but reading about Bytor's tape mixing technique, it reminded me of this album that was made in the seventies by a German guy named Günter Schickert. The album is called Samtvogel and you can read about it here (see especially the last paragraph), and listen to it here on YT. Especially the last song (that lasts 20 minutes) is very cool, ultra-trippy krautrock [edit: it's even on bandcamp]

I've made CD-compilations here and there. Did one to celebrate my event series existing for five years and handed five copies out to people who answered a simple quizz question in time. Might do it more often, it's fun. But time consuming. So I do have a lot of respect for people that go through the process of doing this with actual cassette tapes.

The thing about mixtapes is you never really knew if the songs you selected would fit on the tape. Then you would end up with either minutes of silence at the end or a song that had the end chopped off.

A CD can fit 80 mins, the average tape 45 mins each side. 10 songs is about 30 mins or 35 mins. So there.
