The Sol Invictus Mixtape Project

Your almighty GM demands musical satisfaction. You are my slave audience to achieve it. Get to work!

Assemble a mix. What that means is: create a sequence of songs you personally would like to share with the class.

A CD-R is 80 minutes; a cassette is two 45 or 50 minute sides; so aim for between 60 and 100 minutes.
The purpose of this exercise is to introduce people to new music, so:
- Avoid doubling up on artists, and
- Try to pick a good portion (not necessarily all) of songs as introductions to good bands, rather than the only song you like from a particular artist.
Try to ensure some variance in the mix. I'm pretty sure none of you listen to Norwegian black metal exclusively or anything, so this shouldn't be too hard.
Feel free to "theme" your mix in any particularly inventive way if you so desire.
Include whatever you happen to like and/or think others would enjoy listening to!
There's plenty of good mixtape advice in High Fidelity, both film and book versions. The most important advice: start off with something good, finish with something great, and make sure each set of two songs sounds good next to each other.

Everyone can play mp3s. Use non-DRMed mp3s (any encoding and bitrate is fine) and include an m3u playlist to dictate track order.
Zip the whole thing up in an archive file (.zip and .rar are both easily openable on essentially any platform), and
Upload it to one of the several large file hosting/transfer services freely available on the web, or your own web space. (Off the top of my head, mediafire.com, putbigfile.com, or fileden.com should both work.)
Post the link (along with your identity) at the bottom of the page here.
Download everyone's mixes, listen, and enjoy!

Have your mix done and uploaded by the start of game on ~~April 18th~~ April 25th.

This is from Shreyas. Notes upcoming...
