The Great Ledge CD swap!

[vivfox]

I wanna send an actual CD in the mail. It's very exciting getting gifts in the mail. It rarely happens anymore. tilthefirefades(Anthony) is the Ledgie I have in mind because he's the only one I know that enjoys hip hop music like I do. And come to think of it, chelluversu(Michelle) might be interested also.

If you two or anyone else is interested pm me with your address, I'll burn it and send it asap. Not sure about mailing outside the United States though.

Anyhoo, I am definitely up for this Oo...Am I to take it that Mac related stuff is out, as a given considering they've no doubt heard anyway?

What about all that obscure Mac related stuff by obscure Mac members?

I would ABSOLUTELY LOVE to do this. I want everyone's playlists! Seriously, if you want to give new music to someone (I'm looking at you, Sian), send it to me!

[chriskisn]

Ok well I'm going to cheat on this

Two playlists on Mediafire, one of my favourite Bob Dylan songs (because how could he possibly even SHARE a playlist with any other lowly artist?) and another one of some of my favourite songs that I have been enjoying lately.

Great song, great band. I'm sure you've seen this..,.but if not.....

[CreepingDeath]

I'll probably skip this. The biggest portion would be metal, and I don't think many Ledgies would like it.

for me (Same genre of music - Metal!)

I don't think more than a couple of people would be interested so I too will pass.

[Mac_Man_Dan]

yea id be in for this.....
though my styles vary completely one scale to the other...be prepared

reading above...some metal involved...but it would soo unique, it would be interesting hopefully to someone of simaler oddness in styles

[LittleCharmer]

Here's the link to my playlist - it's supposed to be alphabetical, but mediafire didn't like that for some reason so they're a bit mixed up.. either way it doesn't really make a difference
I've also included a text file in which I've written the years the songs came out and the albums they're from, and a bit about why I chose them.

It's a fun playlist.. Clear the dancefloor!

I love Poly Styrene's voice! Can't beat a bit of out-and-out punk sometimes..

[Mac_Man_Dan]

well mine is all over the place and im very sorry...picking 20 songs is impossible for me so ive just gone for a lucky dip.
a few of the bands are up and coming..a few classic obvious names..and a few obscure songs that may or may not gain any new fans.
also have listed if there demos/ official etc.. so there could be some rare mp3's too!
but do listen and skip and find a song that you like please

(also put a X at the ones im personally encouraging new band wise so do check then out, there not heavy either! )
