We all remember making mixtapes as kids. You had to fiddle with your recorder and write all over the cassette tapes. You would hand them out to your friends and scream “Listen to track 4, the guitar solo is awesome!”. You would carefully select songs (and their order) to give to a girl you liked. Evolution came with the CD. You could click and drag your songs and you could print out a track list and your own album art. Or you could scribble all over the blank CD and draw funny little pictures. Times are changing once again. We all know the future is in digital media, and thats where the mixtape has headed.
In March 2008, Justin Ouellette created a website where you can upload your own songs from your digital library to form a mixtape. You can click random mixtapes and find new artists to love and hate. Its very basic, and its meant to be. Its simple form and ease of use has meant that its taken off. If you don’t already have an account, what are you waiting for? Head over to www.muxtape.com and start spreading the love.
