a group chat..


So now what?

We made it through the first go-round will relatively few casualties, mix-wise. All members and members still intact. By my way of thinking, this first batch was a stomping success.

Should we simply kick the cycle back off again, starting immediately, and scrapping the 15th due date (just make sure we mail our mixes sometime during the month we are scheduled)? Thoughts?


We have 2 new members that will be contributing to the club: Che and Renbencan. Welcome them. IF we decide to just start again, I will repost the teams in full, and send around an updated address form. Any address changes that need to be made, please send to [redacted]@gmail.com .

Thoughts you are thinking?

I am actually still digesting the cavalcade of music that has come down the pipe. It has been magnificent and fun. I feel that a small recess might be in order, you know, to sharpen the saw. But I also understand the necessity to keep good momentum rolling. I just don't want it to feel forced or monolithic. So maybe a short break while we enjoy the rest of the summer and then gird ourselves up for a redoubled sonic sampling to accompany the rustling sounds of autumn leaves.

a break would be nice. i still have yet to listen to a few (*shame on me) of your mixes. i have thoroughly enjoyed this so far and have been toying with new mix ideas with y'all in mind so...i could be ready to do another round as soon as the rest of y'all!

a little tiny break to listen to the goods... but i do think we should have one mix go out in august.

i will volunteer.

oops.

Grifter said...

looks like a break is in order then, except for sweetface's redemption. i think that sounds good.

a majority of folks have yet to chime in, but i think a pause through august would be good and then a full-frontal September slam..maybe.

i am aboard for that.

There's something in me that wants the break but I have had a wistfulness for the silvery treasure in the post.

Break it is. But let's not have this hiatus turn too long. There is a season for everything and I smell a season of awesome on its way.

I knew my time was coming again and I worried about it at every waking moment. Now that I have travelled far and wide all august long, I would like to accept this break and try to get a new mix off for my guildmates by the end of Sept. This will also provide me with some time to start saving up again for those blank CDs and mail.

Yeah, a break would be grand and so will getting new mixes come Septemberish. I need to get my cd drive fixed hasta pronto so I'll get on that. Count me in in in in in (also, check your gmail Joe in approx some few days and I'll give my new at-least-until-november address)....

Also, thousands and thousands and several more thanks to everyone. My drive down to Mesa was sweet and exciting and dear as tracks from various people's mixes came and went and surprised me with how appropriate they were for a long ride down to a familiar/new place.
