Great idea Matt, loving the mixtape. Good to see Monkey Swallows The Universe made it on there :)

Great work in only 6 months or so, keep it up.

Haha… yep, to be honest, I think it was the good ol’ “old school” tape that pulled me in.
Mix tapes will always hold a special place in my heart… far more than “mix cds” ever will.

Right on – I think what I dig about Imeem, is that it offers me the chance to throw up a quick and random playlist when needed. It has the musical depth for me to quickly assemble something on the fly when I don’t have time for individual MP3s.

I plan to stick to individual MP3s otherwise.

What I like about Mixwit, is that it’s pretty darn cool to throw a crusty looking cassette into your post!

Hey Matt,
Thanks very much! Yeah, Imeem is a great resource, but I don’t think I’ll ever move away from my usual format of making the songs available for readers to download. I just thought using Mixwit made a nice change :)

and p.s. – by great idea, I was referring to a mix tape of songs related to past blog topics.

My mind has been all about mix tapes lately….

Wow – what a great idea, man!

I’ve kind of moved on a bit from Mixwit, and got sucked into Imeem. My attention span is kind of like that. I’m sure I’ll do future stuff with Mixwit, but I am really digging the musical selection on Imeem.
