the 80 MIN RANDOM CHALLENGE

Message Bookmarked
Bookmark Removed
It works thusly:

You cue up your entire music library, or all of it that you are able to put on shuffle. Then you put it on shuffle, and drag every song that comes up onto a new playlist. When the playlist becomes too big to fit onto one 80-min CD, you stop. Now, knowing how much space you have to work with, you make the best mix you can out of this randomness. Your music, totally on random. Make a mix of what comes up, in any order. Go.

whoop de doodle (kenan), Monday, 11 December 2006 20:16 (seventeen years ago) link

I took that to mean you want it sequenced, not just whatever comes up in the order shuffle brings it up.

jaymc (jaymc), Monday, 11 December 2006 20:19 (seventeen years ago) link

You have insight into my fuddled brain, sir. Yeah, it's supposed to be an opportunity to sequence songs that you wouldn't ordinarily even have on the same mix.

Jailbait into Good Luck In Jail works in more than one way.

" it's supposed to be an opportunity to sequence songs that you wouldn't ordinarily even have on the same mix."

That's what I did - I know it looks like a list but I did put them into some kind of order.
You see - it starts with a disco-ey one and ends on a quiet one - what more could you want!

sterl clover (s_clover), Monday, 11 December 2006 23:06 (seventeen years ago) link

way more upbeat, girlpop with electronic edges and other pop that sort of fits around it. Progressively less artificial and more 60s and folky as it progresses. The two Le Tigre trax almost feel like mission statements for the mix. Only irritating bits are The Lovetones track which is really not that good and i just tried to hide away where it did the least harm and the Final track which is from "Ambient 4: Isolationism" and is like a 7 minute drone. Just stuck it at the end coz i have no idea what to do with it. I guess I could have hidden the Lovetones track after it?

15 min. Black Leotard song and Alexander Cockburn lecture make this almost untenable but it could have been worse. This is actually pretty damn listenable.
No inspired segues that popped out at me, though I like the Radio Viejo - Motels segment and the opener was too pleasantly off-putting to pass up. Not sure the lyrics are kosher though.
