The only people that aren't invited are the ones that don't know about it.

Ok I'm. How will this work?

Matronik said:

Nobody knows yet.

this will be a slow process...like GNR's Chinese Democracy

Matronik said:

speaking of, did that thing ever hit the ground or is it filed under folklore? I remember hearing a song from it on the howard stern show and I went wtf?

SupaFunkyOrgangrinderSexy said:

well...it seems it finally being released this year...

It's an Axl solo record right?

I'm in. The initial idea - pooling 10 songs from 20 or so orgers - appeals the most to me, but I'd like to participate regardless of what shape this thing takes.

here's an idea i've been marinating in my head since this thread came about:

i'd like to do something that is both a mix comp exchange AND a collaborative mix.

it would work like a chain letter, only one person would be assigned to make a mix for another person, and then that person would be assigned to make a mix for another person (and all these people would be chosen from a list by whoever is running this project, kinda like secret santa)

BUT

there'd be a SECOND disc that would circulate in this "chain", where the recipient would have to select their favorite song from the mix they got and put it on the disc IN ADDITION to the disc of all new stuff they send along to the next person. then that next person gets the all new disc PLUS the "in progress" best-of picks disc from the people previous to them, and then that person chooses a song from the comp they got and they add to that "in progress" mix as well as creating a whole new mix of their own to send to someone.

when the "in progress" disc is full, then it goes back to the person running the project, they mix it all together in whatever artsy fartsy way they think works, and everyone gets a copy of the best of the mixes mix.

this idea has flaws, i know. but what about the unflawed parts?

I like these ideas.

Maybe it could be like this:

Each person makes a mix and sends it to one person. After a week, person B sends person A's mix to Person C who keeps it for a week then sends it to person D, etc. That way everyone gets to listen to a single mix for a week and no one's mix gets lost in the shuffle. Plus, that's a lot more economical than sending out 20 CDs and there's a greater chance that someone's mix will get lost in the shuffle if everyone gets 200 tunes right off the bat. It'd take a bit of coordination but we could keep track on a thread of who's had whose mix.

I also like the idea of the chain mix too. Maybe that one could be send on a Flash drive and we could have a readme file included and everyone could add to it as it gets passed around.

I don't think I listen to anything that someone here wouldn't know.
