Xann Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 Done a CD mix of stuff picked up in 2014 and a separate classical selection for another website. Sending a couple out to VTers anyway, and already sorted a swap for something that I'm after, so why not throw it open? If you've got something you'd like to share, post it, see if you get any takers? Chrisp, I got a smashing CD from a Welsh collector of, er, Welsh stuff. Will run you a copy. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dAVe80 Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 This just reminds me that I didn't get my CD of doom from Hogso 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisp65 Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 Xann is that record label you can just buy it 'artist unknown' and it'll have gems on it. I'm out and about today buying a fridge freezer and watching the football (ying n yang), but I'll put a list up later for any takers. We play TATA STEEL today - bottom of the league versus top, so inevitably the game will be 0:0 but now we own the club we have control of the half time music. Which at the moment is all a bit Glam Rock or Henry Mancini as it has to be on cassette! Elephant Walk by Mancini as the players come out on to the pitch got a good laugh.

chrisp65 Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 ok I've got a couple of CD's - it'd spoil the surprise to say what's on them, but it's vaguely country funky (I know, I know, brilliant), anybody interested, drop me a PM of the address, you know the score. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seat68 Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 Country funky. That sounds half of the stuff I like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrisp65 Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 Well I like it! Probably goes out in the post on Wednesday. If somebody likes one track on there that they didn't previously have or hadn't previously heard then it's mission accomplished. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seat68 Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 Cheers, it arrived yesterday and it will be listened to this weekend, intrigued by 99% of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xann Posted January 16, 2015 Author Share Posted January 16, 2015 Been a bit busy the last couple of weekends. Will try to get mine off next week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisp65 Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 Been a bit busy the last couple of weekends. Will try to get mine off next week. It does end up consuming more time than it should doesn't it? Have to confess, mine is a little crudely done, I tried a different piece of cheapo software and it didn't work it all sound a bit muffled. So I reverted to the 'power dvd' software installed on the laptop, that made it all sound violently compressed into the middle with no volume. So I did it again just using old school straightforward windows copy and paste software and it was the best result. But no fading in our out possible - so a bit clunky. Seat, 'intrigued' ha! ha! I want a full in depth written critique on every piece once you've listened to it all several times in several different locations beginning the listening experience in several different moods. Then we'll see which way the word intrigued tips! I had a mixtape (not from this forum), that survived from the office car park to a roundabout about a mile down the road. The experience went something like: insert.....press play.......skip........skip........skip......skipskipskip......eject.......window down.......launch.

Seat68 Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 oh i will listen to it all, people take time and effort I want to pay that back, and yours will be burned this weekend I expect it to be bouncing off a barry roundabout some time next week. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xann Posted January 16, 2015 Author Share Posted January 16, 2015 (edited) To be honest I just use ITunes cos it's easy, though I've got Audacity. Had Waveburner on my old machine and that was the nuts for this sort of stuff. Edited January 16, 2015 by Xann Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisp65 Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 I deliberately don't have i-tunes or any downloadable music accounts I have to sign up to and put card details into. If I could instant access and possess any song I fancied on a whim, for just 59p, I'd be bankrupt by mid July. It's all about learning to live with your addictions.

Xann Posted January 16, 2015 Author Share Posted January 16, 2015 Good Lord, I don't pay for MP3s. Not a saleable format as far as I'm concerned. Everything is fed to the computer via an optical drive. If something is unavailable on an uncompressed format, then I'll download for free - but I'd never put a downloaded MP3 on a mix, unless it's specifically requested. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dAVe80 Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 CDs arrived Chris. Set the bar high over 3 CDs! Look forward to giving them a listen. Will get on and sort yours out ASAP. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisp65 Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 No rush, ME holds the record leaving it about 6 months! But then sent some awesome stuff to be fair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dAVe80 Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 Got one sorted. Got another one lined up, and will burn it tomorrow at some point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dAVe80 Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 (edited) Seems my CD rewriter is goosed. Not a problem, as I'll just nip round my parents and use one of their laptops. Just means it may be another week, before I get them in the post. Edited January 18, 2015 by dAVe80 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dAVe80 Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 Expect something in the post, in the next couple of days, Chris. Please let me know it gets to you in one piece?! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
