Nah, I was laughing at the name of the mixtape.

I haven't heard it, so I'm not hatin on the mixtape itself.

FistOfThe North
Has anyone ever heard a stictly west-coast mixtape CD. I know they probably have some, just never heard any. That'd be something right there, i'd listen to one, I would sound maad different no doubt.

Pointinel

the chronic = west coast's illmatic

The Chronic.

I kinda agree with you on that equation but I always looked at it as an album. Either that or Doggiestyle.

But i'm talking about like mixtape soundin', with mixing, like s*** from the east. Like what we have here.

D00m
It would be cool if we all could make our OWN mixtapes and then have a contest for best mixtape... Just for bragging rights. But that's probably too much work.

Come to think of it, that might not be to difficult a thing to do. You got a PC mic? I'm sure you can maipulate it so you can give shout-outs along with some jams like the chorus if you want or introduce the song and why you picked it or who you dedicate it to. Like "This next joint right here!...." etc, whatever..

Maybe have a intro with your own freestyle accapela or over another beat, you know.. Or if you have a CD burner you can make one with song you have on your PC. You can do the art on the cd cover, give it a sick title or something for '06, you know, hand it out sell some..

im trying to learn FL studios

shit is complicated

I meant more of a playlist because that would be too much for me too. But I mean, if somebody still wanted to get down like that, do it. That would be dope to put in that kind of work. And the people who just want to make a "playlist" can do that. What you guys think?

We have enough people to vote, but would everybody listen? and be fair?

I agree 100%.

D00m
Let's all be fair and give everything a chance. Also, you can add/subtract points for cohesiveness, quality, ect. Not just on if you like the artists or not.

1. Any genre?
2. So we just list the playlists for our mixtapes right?
3. Is there a limit of tracks?
4. Whats the meaning of life?

1. Just hip-hop
2. We pick which songs we want... then put them in the order we want the listener to hear them in.
3. No limit, just try not to bore the listener with 100 tracks, lol
4. There is no meaning, just enjoy your stay.

koolruningz
Thanks Yoda. wink

D00m
welcome, you are

koolruningz
laughing I had a feeling your response might be something along those lines but to actually read it cracked me up. Nice one.
cool

Phat J
laughing out loud

i think we should put a limit on the track number, under 30 or something like that.

most mixtapes ive heard have been something like that anyways.

D00m
Let's just try to make them 78 minutes at the MOST. What you can basically fit on a CD.

Phat J
good call

D00m
We definitely have to have a set of rules for this...

any questions or suggestions?

Refused
Sounds cool, i'm in.

Phat J
i honestly cant think of any rules, except for the length and type of music which were already said.

im too tired to start my list tonight, so ill take it on tomorrow after work.

Refused
Is there going to be a certain theme to all the songs in the playlist? Like "Best Lyrics", "Best Jazz Influenced Beats", "Hip Hop Loves Songs" stuff like that.

That's up to the individual. The more creative, the better.

Also, make sure to zip the albums because not everybody can open rar files. That's the only "rule" I can really think of at the moment...
