April showers bring May flowers, and another installment of the mixperiment. This month's theme is "Divine Intervention". Turn your music player of choice to shuffle, and cram as much as you can onto one cd, no matter how silly, loud, stupid, out of place, or embarrassing it may be. Don't play around with the sequence, and for heaven's sake, don't manipulate the tracks in any way! Put some faith in your music library and go to it!
The weather`s getting reliable (sort of!), so I`m going to visit my old watering hole, and rock this one out on the bench at the Government Street Entrance of The Bay Center; Saturday, April 26th; 3:00pm-5:00pm.
In other breaking news, the mixperiment now has a home on everyone`s favorite social networking site. To join the facebook group, follow the link!
How? What!? Why!?!
- mixperiment
- The mixperiment is an ongoing music exchange project in Victoria, BC. Each month a date, time, and place is announced for the next installment of the mixperiment. I will arrive promptly with a mix cd that I've made. Participants come by with a mix that they've made (and sushi if they're keen), and we'll trade. The next person to approach with a mix trades their own for the one I've just received. Lather, Rinse, Repeat. You can make a themed cd, a cd from a certain genre, novelty music, songs that are under three minutes, things you love that no one's heard about, things you love that everyone's heard about. Music and people of all genres, eras, and tastes are welcome, but brain-eating Zombies need not apply! Write the track list, make a cover, leave your e-mail address so the recipient can tell you how much they hate your taste in music, or just slip a cd into a paper envelope of mystery. Each month has a theme and participants are welcome to create their mix with the theme in mind, or follow their own lead. Happy Mixing!
