Name It (Mix Tape!)

Here's a mix that I've been thinking of making for a while... it's not the most coherent mix, but I wanted to use only people's names for the song titles. See if your name's on there!

Name It • 54:28 minutes • 69.8 mb
1. M83 • Kim & Jessie
2. Booka Shade • Charlotte
3. She Wants Revenge • Rachael
4. Pinback • Kylie
5. Belle & Sebastian • Jonathan David
6. Bikeride • Erik & Angie
7. Meredith Bragg & The Terminals • Carolina
8. Vetiver • Maureen
9. Sleep Station • Anna
10. Clinic • Mary and Eddie
11. Bat For Lashes • Prescilla (they totally spelled my name wrong)
12. Taken By Trees • Julia
13. Matthew Dear • Don And Sherri
14. M.I.A. • Jimmy
15. Enon • Sabina

juliejeremiah on May 11 '08 at 9:51pm

Yay! I have some favourite name-songs too. :)

pilihp on May 11 '08 at 9:58pm

:( i don't see any Phils

valorandvellum on May 11 '08 at 10:32pm

I didn't have any Phils! All we need is a Jan and a Phil to complete our Azn Invazn.

kayceislost on May 11 '08 at 10:38pm

ahaha i love making silly mixes like these :) :)

andyg on May 11 '08 at 10:43pm

This is pretty good but imagine how amazing it would be if there was an ANDY song in it !

boysbeambitious on May 11 '08 at 10:43pm

Danke!

valorandvellum on May 11 '08 at 10:45pm

Zomg. There should be an assignment where you guys have to find songs with your own name in it. Even if it turns out to be some random Turkish folk song from the 60s, it'll still count!

canceromega on May 11 '08 at 10:45pm

Ahh neat! My name's on there :P

kayceislost on May 11 '08 at 10:46pm

man if i find a song with my name in it i might die.

of shock.

andyg on May 11 '08 at 10:52pm

There's a Killers song called, "Andy You're a Star" and a Cranberries song called "Desperate Andy."

valorandvellum on May 11 '08 at 10:54pm

I made up this rule for myself that the songs could only contain the actual name. Otherwise, "Son of Sam" and a bunch of others might have made it on there. Haha.

Oh heck, let's just make an Andy mix.

andyg on May 11 '08 at 10:55pm

An Andy mix would probably melt the internets. Probably not a good idea.

the czar on May 11 '08 at 11:41pm

Sigh, no Paul song.

Not that I have ever heard a song titled Paul anyway.

valorandvellum on May 11 '08 at 11:43pm

"Paul Simon" - Russian Futurists
"Paul McCartney" - Scissor Sisters
"Paul Newman's Eyes" - Dogs Die in Hot Cars

the czar on May 11 '08 at 11:45pm

I guess if I get famous, someone will write a song about me!!

So that ain't gonna happen!

I am all 80'sd out, I just finished making 3 discs for Bhoomi of 80's hits. Fun!

band-it on May 12 '08 at 9:55am

what an amazing idea!

valorandvellum on May 13 '08 at 11:06am

Paul, just write a song about yourself and then we'll add it to the mix :-P

Thanks, band-it!

Gar0 on May 13 '08 at 11:09am

Is it one continuous mix, or 15 individual tracks to be played in that order?

Looks great, btw, you can't go too far wrong with Booka Shade.

sonmi on May 13 '08 at 11:10am

woohoo!

valorandvellum on May 13 '08 at 11:10am

I don't know how to do fancy transitions so it's just 15 tracks to be played in that order. I really like the new Booka Shade! Some of it reminds me a little bit of Depeche Mode.

martiandrivein on May 13 '08 at 11:16am

Adds to watched...can't download at work.

Gar0 on May 13 '08 at 11:17am

I know the way of the DJ. If you don't mind I'll nick this playlist and see what I come up with.

valorandvellum on May 13 '08 at 11:23am

Oh man, seriously?? That would be pretty cool! :-) Again, this isn't the most coherent mix ever just because the theme is so oddball. Maybe we should collab on a future mix?

Gar0 on May 13 '08 at 11:29am

The running order may change a little depending on the beats and the breaks. Have never tried mixing Belle & Sebastian before, but it could work out ;-)

Collabs are good for me, I'll check Threadless periodically to see if you have any tracks you want playing with.

valorandvellum on May 13 '08 at 12:32pm

Awesome! I see you have your aim listed so I'll contact you once I get something going. Should be fun!

Gar0 on May 16 '08 at 1:15pm

Very rough, with tons of mistakes, and not much change in the running order, but the electronic tracks get interesting towards the end.

I'm def using the electronic tracks again in new mix soon...

Valorandvellum's mix, remixed

Gar0 on May 16 '08 at 1:17pm

hmmm ,this.

sonmi on May 16 '08 at 1:23pm

ooo a remixed version?? sounds intriguing. i'm gonna download this when i get home!

Gar0 on May 16 '08 at 1:36pm

don't get too excited, it's just been put into one MP3, with the electronic tracks mixed together, and the guitar tracks sequenced with a few samples. It's the musical equivalent of iMovie transitions.

valorandvellum on May 16 '08 at 10:19pm

Omg, awesome!! I'm downloading it right now. Can't wait to hear it! I'm still thinking of some good tracks to throw together so we can do a mix collab. :-D

I like lots of music, but The Smiths are the best. I eat too many bean & cheese burritos. I get carded all of the time, sometimes for rated R movies. I probably spend too much money on good wine and chocolate. I would rather watch cartoons than sit through a ceremony of any sort.
