Hi!
Tonight I tweeted “i am compelled to make you a mixtape.”
i got a response from @Twilliamson15 suggesting we make this a community sharing event.
Sounds fantastic.
So here’s the deal:
Use your preferred music sharing service (I’ll be using Grooveshark) to make a playlist of music worth sharing.
What’s “worth” mean?
Whatever you think. Something that moves you, inspires you, saddens you, keeps you company during your workout, calms you, energizes you. Bring it.
Post the link to your playlist either in the comments section of this post, or on Twitter with hashtag #mixtape and I’ll pick it up.
We’ll take entries until next Wednesday November 24th, then compile our playlists for your listening pleasure here in time for Thanksgiving the 25th.
Looking forward to hear your favorites!

Wonderful 🙂
Submitting Simon & Garfunkel’s American Tune:
Helps me keep going when things are lumpy.
I love dancing in the dark with all my doubts about dithering.

I saw your tweet today. I liked it. I almost said something about my walkman being long gone. Love this post!
Move me: many of her songs.
First overheard 15 years ago, did not hear name, could not findagain.
Freshly discovered a few weeks ago.
You asked, I made a modern mixtape to share with you all.

Hmm, embedding the playlist did not work out. Sorry. Here is the mixtape URL. Um, mixtapes with URL? Yeah, enjoy if you like.
Love the idea, Music responds and manifests, actuates and delights, inspires and flows within our hyperconnected meta personas.
here follows a list I have just prepared for you, hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed preparing it.

Grooveshark didn’t have them all, I’d just made this mix for my brother though:
Pádraig Ó Tuama – Creed (from Hymns to Swear By)
Antony & The Johnsons – Ghost (from Swanlights)
Mother Mother – O My Heart (from O My Heart)
Bluebrain – Up & Down (from Soft Power)
Fol Chen – The Holograms (from Part II: The New December)
Great idea I love this and am looking forward to seeing what you all share.
I posted my link using my personal twitter account @jacquitaylorfb The link to my list is http://t.co/RXDRL1E, as the rest of the team didn’t want to own the tracks which inspire, remind and make me dance!
So glad to see this! Here’s my contribution:

Next step: live group chat session with a synchronized playlist?
Just remember you don’t compete music. You experience it.
compete? i don’t understand what you mean.
I am an absolute snob for music and an admitted WHORE for Oasis. So on that note, how bout a playlist full of Oasis rarities and B-sides culled from a couple YouTube brillsos? Yes, I thought you might like that. http://www.youtube.com/view_play_list?p=AE899330583FA544

We just wrote about mixtape and remix culture on Shareable, and there’s some really far out recommendations:

music is a very personal thing, yet connected on a level deeper than most other things, to a collective stream of information.
for me, songs, the selection and seemingly infinite variables of songs we can listen to, represent timelines with embedded metadata.
emotions, memories and thoughts linger in the rhythms heard, thought and sensed, continuing to flow, while we experience life, yet consist of the reflections into the future and past while in the moment.
here is my contribution to the collective mixtape post, with some music snippets that get me pumped and in the zone for creative productivity … while avoiding to sleep as much as i should 😉

I’m loving the idea. It’s got an “idea worth sharing” sort of feel to it. I might have to do that 🙂
I have one to! here it is. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-CreEuaS8QY
A few tracks of sublimity. Okay. I think GrooveShark is now my favorite music sharing service.
Enjoy
