Hello All,
I remember Perchee used to run all of the earlier mix exchanges back in the day, but since the server shit the bed I haven't seen another one of these pop up.
I was always really interested in the idea, but never got involved unfortunately, so I'd like to bring it back!
So from what I remember (feel free to correct me.):
-Anyone that's interested posts in this thread.
-We decide on a theme
-The user creates a mix tape/disc revolving around that theme.
-Everyone gets paired up and swaps/mails out their mixes!
-Profit!
THEMES FOR CONSIDERATION

THEMES ALREADY COVERED

THE RULES
__________________________________________________ __________________________
-Everyone that opts in will be assigned someone to send their mix to.
-Each mixer is to send a physical copy of their mix* (Optical or Flash Memory, no obnoxious formats please.)
*If you're fanatically opposed to physical media, it's permissible to send a digital mix.
However I'm sure it'd be appreciated if you sent something in lieu, like a card, poker chip, pygmy marmoset, whatever.
-Being part of a NIN community, there's no need to make them or other obvious artists (Nothing Records, etcetera) a part of you mix.
-If you fail to send your mix, you will not be included in future exchanges.
