Okay then, so it’s April. Which, of course, means that it’s much, much too early to start thinking about my next mix CD exchange. Or maybe not. I know it might appear as if I only just had an exchange, and that it was only just a few weeks ago that I was pestering some of you for your CDs, but the thing about a quarterly event is that it happens every three months.
Which brings me to my point. I’m going to set the mail-by date for the next exchange as May 17. That’s a good month and a half from now, which I hope is ample time to put together a mix. (I will, of course, make allowances if genuine problems arise or consider changing the date should it present too much of a problem. I suspect I’m the only one who’s actually finished burning his mix.)
Anyway, the exchange will work the same as it has in the past: You send me x number of CDs, and I send you x number in return. For each copy you send me of your own mix, you’ll get a different mix from another person, including me, mailed back to you. Pretty simple. If you’re interested, please let me know here in the comments or by e-mail as soon as possible, like within a week. (I’ll also be sending out this message to the people who have participated before.) I’m going to try to keep the number of participants at a reasonable level, around ten or fewer again, but a lot depends of it depends on how many people are interested.
Let me know. I can’t speak for anyone else, but the exchanges have proved to be a whole lot of fun for me. I’ve discovered (and hopefully shared) some really great music.
