Oh, I think any themes should be voluntary.

Why would the theme need to be the same for all 9 CDs though? Definitely seems unfair, and might be a bit boring.
If everyone picked an individual, pretty specific theme that they've a particular fondness for and knowledge of it'd be best I'd imagine?
Track list?
The best thing about a mixtape for me is hearing stuff I've not heard before, or types of music I wouldn't normally listen to (a CD version of Later... kind of thing).
From that point of view a mix of whatever you fancy sounds the way to go for the first one, with a good handful of little known tunes thrown in. Themes then in the next round, each of us picking one, or nominating one beforehand and then stoutly defending the choice against all criticism. :D
1. Thats Entertainment - Paul Weller Feat. Noel Gallagher
2. Love Will Tear Us Apart Again- Joy Division
3. I Wanna Be Adored - Stone roses
4. Some Surprise - Cake Sale
5. Wish You Were Here - Pink Floyd
6. 99 Red Balloons- Nina
7. Intervention - The Arcade Fire
8. Adagio For Strings (Platoon) - Samuel Barber
9. Space Oddity - David Bowie
10. Children Of The Revolution (Live8) - Elton john feat. Pete Doherty
11. Feel Flows- The Beach Boys
12. Set the Fire To The 3rd Bar - Snow Patrol
13. Live Forever - Oasis
14. Polaris - Ash
15. One For The Road (Live @ Oxegen 2003) - Ocean Colour Scene
16. She's Leaving Home - The Beatles
17. The End
Track 1-8 has a very familiar feel to it, and could have easily been the mix I put together, with the exception of cake sale whom I'd never heard before, but like that song. Good 80's one in the mix too.
Whose Next???
Yeah Brewer next, then yourself, then meself. :eek:
Thought I'd posted earlier on BGR's one, but I hadn't, sorry. Some good tunes there. The Joy Division one is an absolute classic of course, but Pedantic Pat said to tell you to drop the 'again'. ;) (Oh, and it's Nena, he said to say! :D )
Liked the Beach Boys one too, hadn't heard that before, don't know why. Good end to it too, even though I can't stand The Doors, I do like that tune.
Is this not illegal lads ? copying music and distrbuting it ?
Anto, this is all hypothetical talk.
(Damn, they're on to us. IMRO must have stormed Sligobrewer's house.)
Lad's I've been laid up in bed for the week with Streptococcal Throat so haven't been online. Do you need me to forward the addresses to sligobrewer or has he vanished?
You may as well forward them on to me. I'll get them out on Monday.
I'll probably be slaughtered for this but are mix tapes not something you do for chicks you fancy when you're sixteen? Is there something going on here?
You mean you people aren't all sixteen year old chicks? Man, you can't trust anyone on the internet these days.
