Mix CD Giveaway!

[amnesiack]

Yoinked from hillarygayle and modified slightly.

I actually enjoy making mix cds quite a bit, and I love to spread the word on local/indie bands, so I think this is worth doing.

THE SETUP (as modified by me): The first 10 people (unless I decide to do more) to post a reply to this entry will get a mix cd made by me according to the rules below. If you are a Seattle-area person with whom I have regular contact, I will deliver the cd in person. Otherwise, you will need to follow your comment with an email to amnesiack at gmail dot com that contains your mailing address, so that I can send you the cd. The original meme said that the deadline to send them by was Christmas, but I can't guarantee that will be the case with my cds, since I'm going to be out of town the entire week prior to Christmas. As with any meme, you are encouraged to re-post this (or the original here) in your own livejournal.

THE RULES (as yoinked):

1. You must send out CDs. If this is entirely not possible, or if you cannot meet the deadline, an assembled RAR package with tracklist file will suffice.
2. You do not need to make a different CD for each person you're supposed to send one to, but it's not against the rules to do so.
3. The CD must be at least one hour long.
4. The CD must not contain more than two songs by any person or group.
5. The CD must reflect your taste in music.
6. The CD must be accompanied by a tracklist.
7. The CD must be audio only, no MP3-CDs.
8. Try to avoid songs or groups that you know everyone else already listens to. This is more a suggestion than a rule.

Think of this as a way to spread the joy of your taste in music (which is better than everyone else's).

EDIT: You don't have to re-post this or send me anything to get a cd from me. I'm glad to do this for anyone, regardless of whether or not you can reciprocate. If you do, though, that's cool. ^_^

I don't have time to do a bunch, but I would be happy to trade one with you.

I'm interested in what you'd put on a mix CD. I'd make you one in return, but I'm pretty sure you wouldn't love it. I'm way too mainstream. ^_~ But I'd love to see what you'd put on a CD. (And I'm probably a goofball, but the rule about audio v. MP3 seems immaterial to me; I'm happy either way.) I'll send you my address and if you want one in return, send me yours and I'll do my best. ^_^

B and I want a CD. :) We (slash he, cause he's the one with the music) should make you one to. :) Can't wait to see you.

This is a brilliant idea. I'm not sure if I want to get a mix from you or offer mixes of my own or both. But any way you look at it, this is brilliant.

It will require much consideration.

"I'm not sure if I want to get a mix from you..."

And I'm not really sure how I should take that. Still, I did say "the first ten people to post", and you posted, so you're getting a cd whether you want one or not.

All right, I'm in.

And Me...

What does my archnemesis listen to? Perhaps this will be the key to your undoing...*evil laughter*

I saw this on my widget when you first posted it but couldn't comment for some reason. I then forgot about it for a while. Anyway, I win and made the "first 10" cut. W00t. If I gave you a a business card this past PAX, you have my address, but I'll email one anyway. Also, USPS Media Mail may be slow, but it is ultra-cheap, so it's good for sending CDs that don't need to be there in any hurry, such as this.
