2013 song tournament A: Thejambi Wins!

[Norah]

Nevermind, they're Time Warner now. We had roadrunner before comcast took over so I thought they might be the same now. If that was the case I could tell you how to FTP files to your personal space.

[super nintendo chalmers]

no clue. time warner i think.

[Lament]

Having trouble doing this on soundcloud. How'd you get around the copyright crap?

I think they let mine go up because it was all live. I had uploaded one with the studio versions of everything first, but that got taken down immediately.

Most of mine are live, I think it can tell when you ripped via itunes on an official cd.

Hmm. I know the first song on my mix was from some tour compilation I had gotten off of some bootleg site, so maybe that threw them off from recognizing the rest of the file.

[super nintendo chalmers]

Yeah, I'm getting there, fooled em into 8 songs so far. Should be okay.

[its_not_1974]

My SC links are still up, I'll figure out a backup just in case.

No weak playlists, yet. You guys are pretty good.

Kurt's has a particularly nice flow

[super nintendo chalmers]

oops

[Birds in Hell]

Most ISPs provide personal webspace you can use to host these.

My ISP sucks.

I Think You Won, But I Enjoyed the Fight. Hope You Did Too.

My thoughts on the playlists posted so far:

Lament's was surprisingly strong, like best setlist i've heard strong. sort of like Chud's, I found myself enjoying the combination of songs more than I'd initially anticipated just looking at them listed. Kurt's is great, my initial vote based just on lists of songs went to Jambi, but I considered Kurt's to be #2. After listening to both in the order they'd arranged them, I'd give the slight edge to Kurt now (my #2 setlist). It came down to Jambi's 4-7 tracks just boring me a little too much (which has dropped it to #5 behind Chud's #4 and ilpazzo's #3). Awesome job, everybody this is fun.

Nevermind. Gonna give myself some time to listen to these songs.

[Birds in Hell]

Here's the link to my mix again, btw: http://www.mixcloud.com/birdsinhell/so- ... l-jam-mix/

Listening now to see what im up against

[LetMeSleep]

Here's a dropbox of my playlist. Enjoy.

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/124 ... %20LMS.mp3

[Sgt. Crackpot]

I don't have the facilities/etc to create a playable version of my playlist, so people will just have to hum the tunes in their head, and imagine how awesomely radical my list is.

[LetMeSleep]

Eh, I'll just leave it now.

I have the WAV or MP3 if anyone wants a better copy.

I'd love an mp3 if you can dropbox it. In fact any d/l mixes would be great so I can listen offline.

[Sgt. Crackpot]

Come to think of it, I have all the songs recorded off the radio on cassette tape. So I can hold a microphone up to my cassette player while I play the songs, I'll then publicly broadcast it via UStream.

You guys will have to tell me if you want it to start again, or go backward/forward etc. Because of my limited bandwidth (dial up modem 14.4k) all communications will need to be via Morse code, or carrier pigeon.

There will be a point every 30 minutes where I won't be contactable, because I'll have to go out onto the pedal dyno and generate some more electricity. This usually takes about 30 minutes, for another 30-40 minutes of power. Although I could use the hand crank dyno, but this needs to be done constantly and I need a hand to hold the microphone up to the cassette player, so this may be a little difficult.

What do you guys think?
