Pancake Posted 21 April, 2009 Posted 21 April, 2009 (edited) THE RETURN OF A LEGEND. SWF Mixtapes (née TSF Mixtapes) are back, and this time to make sure we stay this side of the legal line we are using Spotify to create the 20 song masterpieces. Spotify allows you to listen to a whole load of music legally and quickly. You have to install the client on your PC or Mac. You can either be free user, which means you get adverst between songs (seems to be about every 10-15 songs for me, and its only 1 advert at a time) or you can pay or a day membership or a month one. Anyway, the best bit is that you can create playlists of songs and then share the URL of this playlist out, meaning we re0birth of the Mixtape on here. To share a created playlist, once you have finalised the tracks and order, right click it and copy the URL. So far, Buzzin' Orn, Pancake, Julian Cope and Rattlehead have agreed to create a musical mix. Let me know if you want to take part too. The first mix from Buzzin' Orn should be up this week or next.

percy windham Posted 21 April, 2009 Posted 21 April, 2009 ace, i need to have a proper look at this spotify thing, i may be interested after that
Pancake Posted 22 April, 2009 Author Posted 22 April, 2009 Added you JS. Is 2 weeks between mixes OK for everyone?
Johnny Shearer Posted 22 April, 2009 Posted 22 April, 2009 Ta. Will people be doing seamless links from one song to the next? As I have a feeling mine wont be like that!
Scudamore Posted 23 April, 2009 Posted 23 April, 2009 I'll have a go. Although i can think of several routes i'd like to go down...oh the choice!
Julian H. Cope Posted 23 April, 2009 Posted 23 April, 2009 I've got about 50 songs to choose from. C*ntish.
Rattlehead Posted 23 April, 2009 Posted 23 April, 2009 Added you JS. Is 2 weeks between mixes OK for everyone? Fine for me thanks but please could I maybe slip a few slots down the schedule? I'll be away most of May and I would then appreciate a bit of time to nail it down. I would be very grateful, ta.
Sheaf Saint Posted 23 April, 2009 Posted 23 April, 2009 I'll have a go. Will be fun looking through my entire collection and coming up with something suitable for all tastes. I look forward to hearing some of these.

Scudamore Posted 24 April, 2009 Posted 24 April, 2009 I'll have a go. Although i can think of several routes i'd like to go down...oh the choice! *ahem*
Scudamore Posted 24 April, 2009 Posted 24 April, 2009 What? Good work...end of July leaves plenty of time for tweaking too...
the stain Posted 24 April, 2009 Posted 24 April, 2009 Good work...end of July leaves plenty of time for tweaking too... Oo, you sauce-pot!
Johnny Shearer Posted 24 April, 2009 Posted 24 April, 2009 Ha ha mine will be so naff! I don't care though as I love some the tunes on there very muchly.
Rattlehead Posted 26 April, 2009 Posted 26 April, 2009 Had never heard of Spotify before this. It is pretty amazing actually.
hamster Posted 29 April, 2009 Posted 29 April, 2009 I don't know what people are talking about here, but when I click that link my spotify opens, it says BuzzinOrn - Loading and .....nought happens. Have I got to go through some weird induction first?
Rattlehead Posted 29 April, 2009 Posted 29 April, 2009 Have you registered and downloaded Spotify? I think you need to do that first. Doesn't take long and definitely worth it IMO.
hamster Posted 29 April, 2009 Posted 29 April, 2009 Have you registered and downloaded Spotify? I think you need to do that first. Doesn't take long and definitely worth it IMO. eah, I got a free spoyify account. Just says 'loading'. still doing it.
Rattlehead Posted 29 April, 2009 Posted 29 April, 2009 I don't think you can run it from your internet browser directly - you might need to open the downloaded Spotify program first maybe (either manually or when it asks you what program to use). It works fine for me so don't know what to do if it doesn't work. Other than that I dunno mate. Sorry. Buzzin will know.
Pancake Posted 30 April, 2009 Author Posted 30 April, 2009 I don't know what people are talking about here, but when I click that link my spotify opens, it says BuzzinOrn - Loading and .....nought happens. Have I got to go through some weird induction first? Odd. Try the link that Buzzin posted. Should just be bale to click the link, Spotify opens and the playlist is imported.
Pancake Posted 30 April, 2009 Author Posted 30 April, 2009 Should we have a separate thread for each mix? Yes or no.
Johnny Shearer Posted 30 April, 2009 Posted 30 April, 2009 I don't think a seperate thread is needed - they may get lost or people won't notice.
Rattlehead Posted 30 April, 2009 Posted 30 April, 2009 I personally think they may get lost in this thread. I think each being a sticky for a couple of weeks until the next one is up would work. You could have another 'permanent', maybe locked, sticky with an explanation and links to each as well (updated by Pancake?) so everyone can find them easily even once dropped from sticky status. Under this plan, this thread would fall away and be replaced as described. My thoughts anyway.

This thread has the dates etc in and will also have links to the relevant mixes and threads.
Pancake Posted 30 April, 2009 Author Posted 30 April, 2009 2 stickies then all the time, the current mix and this one. Sorted my sons.
SuperMikey Posted 9 May, 2009 Posted 9 May, 2009 Reckon I could do one? Would be fun imo, and gives you all a chance to slag me off via my music taste.
jeff leopard Posted 2 June, 2009 Posted 2 June, 2009 (edited) Jeff - your mix is due up this friday... SNIP! Edited 2 June, 2009 by Pancake
percy windham Posted 2 June, 2009 Posted 2 June, 2009 wont have a chance to listen untill later, but looks like an excellent list there jeff
Pancake Posted 2 June, 2009 Author Posted 2 June, 2009 wont have a chance to listen untill later, but looks like an excellent list there jeff You havent seen nothing. Nothing to see here, move along now, Jeff's mix will be up on Friday!
Pancake Posted 19 June, 2009 Author Posted 19 June, 2009 It's Friday...where's the freaking mix? Im freakin' busy until about 2 pm... it WILL be up then.
Scudamore Posted 19 June, 2009 Posted 19 June, 2009 Im freakin' busy until about 2 pm... it WILL be up then. Freaks sake... Mine's ages away... It's like painting a picture...sometimes you just need to put the brush down and just leave it...all this tweaking will freak my mix up!
Pancake Posted 21 July, 2009 Author Posted 21 July, 2009 B5 - added I missed one as I was on leave and forgot to sort it. But it was OK as JS is still having net issues so Ive moved him back to the end of the list. Scu - you are up for Friday 31st still if thats OK.
