Description:
This is a twelve part swap! Year of music! Each month you will make a CD following that months theme. I know it is a little late for January but I just got the idea this week. Since it is almost February I am doing January and February together! So you will make one CD for January and one CD for February. January's theme is all female vocals! So gather all your favorite female artists. February's theme is love. So gather all those love songs! Note: The songs don't have to be happy love songs. They can be about breaking up etc. Try to fill up an entire CD but if you can't do at least 14 songs. To make it fun include a track list and decorate the cover! These rules will be the same through out the year. No recent ones or threes. Newbies welcome with a "completely" filled out profile! Here is a preview of the following month's themes. These are subject to change March - Electronic/ April - World/ May - Dance/ June - New Age/ July - Lets here it for the boys (all male vocals)/ August - Rock/alternative/punk/indie/ska/ September - World Fusion/ October - One hit wonders/ November - Cover me! (cover songs)/ December - Christmas (of course!)

Awesome! This is similar to the 2007 Musical Journal hosted by April7x, only themed!! This is an awesome idea, and I am so glad I joined in at the begnning--I will have so much fun creating mixes for this swap! Thanks for hosting, Moony!!

I wish I could joined this swap, unfortunately my CD burner has crashed. :-P

I have a question: do the songs have to be newly released (January releases for January) or do you mean that this is a series of swapping themed music CDs for a year?

Darkestlina 02/ 6/2010 #

Yeah I am with TheLambdaCalculus that will determine if I am in or not.

MsMarvel 02/ 8/2010 #

Send by the 15 of each month?

JayBab 02/ 8/2010 #

I'm joining, but was waiting for an answer to Lambda's question as well. If this is a general all-female mix, the I'm in. If not, please feel free to remove/ban me from this swap.

Still no news from our host? For this kind of swap (it has already been done those past years), each month usually has a special theme but the songs don't have to be recent otherwise it would make it a bit difficult - or challenging! And we don't have to sign up every month (at least that's what the similar swaps said, I would like our host to confirm this, please!) My January mix will be songs by women (released any year) and the second mix contains Love songs from now back to the 60s. Hope I get it right, the deadline is on monday!

Moony 02/10/2010 #

OK, songs can be from any time line. Yes, the 15th will be the due date in all the swaps. Yes, January is an all female mix CD. Sorry for not seeing these.

Moony 02/10/2010 #

Oh, and don't forget to do February, Love Songs, too. I couldn't put that in the title.

any news on when the partners will be assigned? I'm done my cds and would like to send them out.

Batraplume 02/11/2010 #

Still waiting for the partners to be assigned. Not sure to be able to go to the post-office before next week, there's a snow storm over here and now it's beginning to freeze!

MsMarvel 02/11/2010 #

yeah... I'd like to ship mine out! :)

MsMarvel 02/13/2010 #

Rate after receiving the first CD or rate in a year?

MsMarvel 02/13/2010 #

Batraplume 02/14/2010 #

We do rate after receiving this 1st swap! And then you will rate the other swaps if you join them.

MsMarvel 02/17/2010 #
