Any ideas for a new contest? I was thinking of revisiting our very first contest, 'song links.'

Thoughts?

No.

How about a soundtrack for a specific place?

or

Alternate Soundtrack for a Movie you like/hate.

or

A mix made up entirely of bands/people that only have one good song.

or

only songs from soundtracks, or compilations.

or

mix made up only of musicians who have acted

or

a 30 seconds to mars best of mix contest

I like all of Mr Sledgbrainerd's ideas, particularly the musicians that have acted one and the soundtrack for a specific place one. Add to that

Songs all about a specific person

or

A rest of the World compilation, where the selections come from from anywhere in the world except the USA or Britain

or

a mixtape with an aquatic theme of some sort

or

A genre mixtape featuring artists not usually associated with that genre. EG, a jazz mixtape featuring acts mostly known for other styles

or

Another team one like the robots versus monsters contest, only this time, Us versus Them. Interpret it as you will

or

A 'You can't get there from here' contest. Start and end with the same track with every track inbetween linked in some way.

or

A WHERE IS QUALCA??? MIXTAPE!

i second the 30 seconds to mars contest. fuckin RAWK!

but seriously, the alternate movie soundtrack is probably the best idea i've heard (read) thus far. very good. too good.

also: life as a house has the worst soundtrack EVER. it is also a really, really bad/contrived/trite movie. i hate not having a DVD player. sorry, i'm tipsy and feeling very chit-chatty.

Spring Has Sprung mixtape.

A mix about/dedicated to different crazy people of your choice (hobos, vagrants, religious nuts, cat ladies, meth faces, college kids on spring break in Cancun...)

A mix that you would want to properly express who you are when archeologists dig it up 386 years from now.

Foreign language mix.

An Ode to the Internet. And maybe Al Gore, but don't include that Melissa Etheridge An Inconvenient Truth song.

All my mixes are foreign language mixes.

And I have been lobbying for the geographic/specific place mix for ages.

I like the archeology mix.

I also like Sledge's concept of a geographic mix telling everyone about the place they live.

Covers better than the original

Turn Me on Dead Man - someone in the band is dead, but they would have been young enough to still be living.

Songs that we fracture the lyrics "Big Ole Jed and Eliza" by Steve Miller Band

Covers better than the original has been done several times.

I think more of someone's foreign language mixes need to be uploaded more often. Yes, I'm demanding. Hence the avatar. :D

some good ideas here. i also think an influences mix would be cool. where every artist in the mix is directly (and openly) influenced by the previous artist

Sorry I've been so inactive these past days -- I've been busy with other things.

But yeah, what mike said -- some rad ideas here. I'll try to get one of these started, um, tomorrow.

Rock on. Y'all are tops.

We haven't done a dance party mix yet.

Or, in further support of my proposed MTC party date of May 4th, I suggest the contest be making the best mixtape to play at the MTC party, for your fellow mixtapers.

I like the MTC party mix idea. Then the winner gets bragging rights on the party.
I also support moving the party to JUNE 4, so those of us pursuing an education can attend.
