Hi Tyler,
My partner and I talked about your making mixed tapes using cassette
equipment. For 25 years he made lots
of mixed tapes just using cassette equipment. But he eventually decided to
upgrade to digital editing. If you want more info. contact me off list.

Thank you! And I thought I was just an audio thief! Because I didn't
record any of that; I just stuck it down on a virtual canvas that
everyone knows as Audacity! But I have some Wayne Butane CD's (which
are very rare now) where he does much the same thing ... all on a
cassette machine! So that would be recommended listening for members
of this list.

My mixtapes (which are all MP3 at this time) are the collage kind,
where I will have the audio from a scene from a movie, and have songs
that were popular at the time respond to the sentences. The cut-up
technique. Montages that follow a theme, plunderphonics-type tributes
to artists, interview parodies (similar to the movie splices, where
someone asks questions and they are answered by song clips); so I
guess that's a sound collage more than a mixtape, but we started
calling them mixtapes because of the rap and hip-hop DJ culture. If
you want to hear my work entirely made from cut-up samples, our act,
Mini Nifty, has a page on AnyAudio.

And message me off list if you want us to exchange more traditional
mixes or anything like that. This stuff I can probably get away with
hosting online since they are just short little clips; Dickie Goodman
actually sold records, so probably!

tape
songs off my parents' cassettes and records, as well as my own
evenI,
too, would not let an inch of tape go to waste and would tape songs
fromif
they ended up cutting off.
Nowadays, I do the same sort of thing with cds, burning everything
podcasts,music I find on the internet, bits from talking books, YouTube clips,
etc. I
do the same thing with dvds sometimes, too, making folders of
tolongger YouTube clips, pictures, and written material.

Have any of you on this list ever made mixtapes using cassette
equipment? As much of a cassette-lover as I am, the first so-called
"mixtapes" I made weren't literally tapes, I was doing it digitally
since I began. But I am interested in the cassette mixtape culture as
well. Collage counts; so if you've ever taken clips from existing
sources and edited them together using a tape machine, I would like
Nowknow. I have done this digitally, but this is a tape mailing list.
you're probably wondering why I even created the list; well, I have a
tape collection, and I can play them and I like their sound, I just
happen to not have a machine that records them at this time.
