I did the exact same thing with a mix trading ring. It recently fizzled out because none of us have much time for it. (We’d post detailed reviews of everyone’s mixes, too.)

I ran a mix of the month club for about a year… I’ve been missing it.

Has anyone discovered Art of the Mix?

(major timewaster)

Art of the Mix

My favorite started was Good Morning (Singing in the Rain) followed by Institutionalized (Suicidial Tendancies).

For the Mix Club – people could opt in or out on a month by month basis, themes were “assigned” and I rotated the participants (so mailed & received from different people as often as possible) Then after the mailout deadline, people posted their mixlists to the club thread so we could all admire & compare & make arrangements to trade for additional discs privately.

Themes:

songs about cars
songs about the body/ body parts
music you listened to in high school
halloween/ scary music
New Year’s (music you discovered the previous year)

We also occasionally did scavenger hunt mixes

example:

1. A song off the first album you bought.
2. A song with blue in the title.
3. A song that makes your ears bleed

etc., etc,
