The Sweeping The Nation Muxtape Challenge

The up to date list is now kept here

So you're already aware of the beautiful simplicity of Muxtape, yes?

Well, we have a challenge for you.

We want every year of the last four decades, 1967-2007, represented by a full twelve track Muxtape of songs from that year, each compiled by a different person. Add your name to the list via the traditional communication methods - comment, email, Myspace message, brick through window - and if you're not sure which year to go for, we'll assign you one. We'll keep count right here. You may also like to guess which popular online music magazine's message board this is being carried out in conjunction with. (If you've asked for one that wasn't previously allocated in the comments and we've not said anything, just assume it's yours)

I'll do 1968 if nobody else wants to take it at this point.

Jim W said...

Simon said...

Consider them both yours.

Hello, I really enjoy your site! Could I join in and do 1997 if it hasn't already been taken please?

Thank you!

James said...

Err..
I (jkp88 on DiS) already asked for 1997. can i still have it?

Simon said...

Oh crikey. Er, there's a kind of dual thing going on on DiS, I suppose, but the fairest I can say is whoever gets theirs in first will get the official link.

James said...

1997, done. http://twoheadedboy.muxtape.com/

Simon said...

Sorry, Simonon. There's plenty of other years available if you want.

Bah you go offline for a day and looks what happens! Anyways mine was going to be http://nineteennintyseven.muxtape.com - I couldn't get Radiohead to upload for me so never mind.

Anonymous said...

Could I have 1971 please? I'm on DiS as icehockeyhair, and thought I'd posted asking for it..

Simon said...

You did post, but to request 1970. Which is it going to be? Eh? Eh?

Chris Brown said...

Assuming I work out how to do all this gubbins, I'm not sure whether it'd be more interesting to do a year of my own choice or an assigned one.
Interesting for me, I mean - naturally I make no promises about it being interesting for anyone else.

James said...

err, its james by the way. sorry to be such a pedant.

Jez said...

I'll take 1971, if it's still free, otherwise I'm happy to be allocated a year at random.

Simon said...

Why did I put John? Changed, anyway. Jez, you can have 1971.

Anonymous said...

Can I take 1982 please?

Jez said...

I'll take 2000. Having problems uploading but it should be ready in the next few days.

Chris Brown said...

Is there any deadline on this? I quite fancy the idea, and I've got a shortlist of three possible years... but most of my CDs are packed away at the moment.

James Gyre said...

i'll take 2004... on it now...

James Gyre said...

actually, i take it back... it will monopolize muxing...

sorry

Chris Brown said...

I've had a go at 1969 to fill out the earlier years. I may fiddle later, but here it is:

I'd love to do 2004, really, just great tunes from that year, yeah? No agenda or just evocative tracks of that era?

Anonymous said...

Nearly finished 2004 ... should be done by tomorrow night :-)

Anonymous said...

Sorry not finished mine yet, should be rounding it off this weekend as I now have a functioning computer again.

Chris Brown said...

Just so everyone knows, I've had to change one track on 1969.

Anonymous said...

Phew... 2004 is uploaded and sequenced, enjoy :-)

Love from Adas at www.thisisoffset.co.uk

'Tis done:

Would've gone for a more eclectic mix, but y'know, it *was* a great year for power-pop...

The Daily Growl said...

I'll have 1991 please - the year I first really got into music. I'll get all misty-eyed looking back...

Jim W said...

If it didn't get through last time for '88

Jim Waterson

I'd really like to do 1973, and it appears to be free, so it appears to be mine

Anonymous said...

many thanks
