Well here's the only review it's gonna get.

Robert Wyatt - Shipbuilding

I really enjoy the Soft Machine and Wyatt's solo albums. This is a nice track, bass and drums playing some soft jazz,. I don't have much to say about songs I already know.

Bad Braids - Ships

My song. Gives me a certain chill.

Rado Moscow - Deep Blue Sea

Some kind of new school blues rock that I can dig. Acoustic licks are tasty. Psychedelic vocals with that reverb. Pretty alright.

Namco - Formless Like Water

I do like many video game's music, I don't know this. It was satisfyingly catchy. That bass line was infectious.

Black Heart Procession - On Ships of Gold

Here we go, best song on the album. I love this kind of thing, but alas, I haven't heard this before. It sounds like it's building up to something epic, but continues on it's mellow path. That's not necessarily bad, though, I dug this.

t Bites - The Tall Ships

If I hadn't heard this, and only read the wikipedia description, I would have thought this could be cool. But I honestly didn't think this song was cool. Sounded like a modern rock and pop country hybrid. The vocals were lame as well.

Gorillaz - Pirate Jet

I never listen to Gorillaz, but whenever they come on, I kind of dig it. This was a decent song, short and simple, but I really enjoyed that beat. And I like this at the end, thought it was a good closer.


This week had a good flow, not too many songs, but I liked six out of seven. The track arrangement seemed great though, but that's just me, I don't know why.

NOT SO FAST!

Okay, maybe this won't be much of a review, but I did listen to the whole mixtape and I am having feelings about it.

First of all, why so sad? This is really a sad, sad collection of songs guys. Really mellow. Actually I was about to submit something and it was sad, too. So I guess that makes sense.
Mondo, I love your submission, Bad Braids - Ships. It was one of the two songs on this tape that I'll listen to again. Very chilling indeed.
Namco - Formless Like Water was also good. I like video game music though, and I'm a sucker for anything that reminds me of Sonic 3D blast. This did!
I basically hated Black Heart Procession - On Ships of Gold and t Bites - The Tall Ships. Sorry to whoever submitted those. Depressing and depressingly upbeat.
As would be expected, I dig Gorillaz - Pirate Jet. I had never heard it though! I love listening to isolated newness from artists I already know I like.

Does anybody think that my would-have-been submission, Battleship Grey by DJ Tiesto, could have made this mixtape better or worse? Just curious.

In my opinion any submission is a good submission. This thread isnt about listening to the same stuff you have been for your entire life but keeping open ears and divulging into others peoples musical realms.

personally i would have likely hated it as much as you hated mine....but only because i can't stand that guy....still it would have been an awesome submission and would have mixed things up a bit....why did you not submit it?

and i agree this was an oddly sad mix of music...but i love sad music so it worked out perfect for me

1. rostasi: Robert Wyatt - Shipbuilding
i really enjoyed this man...a great start of the mix....and really sets the mood

2. Mondo Bungle: Bad Braids - Ships
ok....when i first glanced this over i thought this was Bad Brains....keeping in mind that i load these playlists onto my ipod and listen to them while driving....you can imagine my surprise when this haunting and beautiful voice comes over the speakers ....all i can say man is this track is the winner for me....loved it

3. Rezdaddy Longlegs: Radio Moscow - Deep Blue Sea
uber bluesy psyche rock....i was reading about these guys a couple days ago and was thinking i should check them out.....you sir have solidified that notion thanks

4. Deviouz: Namco - Formless Like Water
interesting considering it's the background for a video game?....it all honesty i would have never guessed that....i had no idea they put this much effort into game music production...still a solid track for what it is

5. bob.: Black Heart Procession - Ships Of Gold
of course my first thought was to upload The Sinking of the Titanic by Gavin Bryers....but figured most of you would not listen to an hour and a half of minimal classic music ....then i thought about this amazing track about the sinking of the Wilhelm Gustlof but figured you guys don't want people screaming German at you....this is by far my favorite track from the album 3

6. Trollheart: It Bites - The Tall Ships
at first i was weary about this one....obviously very prog but a bit poppy at the same time....the dudes voice is a little annoying and it almost sounds like a horrible christian pop song.....by the end i actually really enjoyed all of it.....esp the chorus

7. djchameleon: Gorillaz - Pirate Jet
great track from a great album....nice pick sir

Yeah, I see what you mean. I simply forgot to submit is all, and I apologize about that stroke of laziness!

The first 2 albums are incredible. I mean incredible. I believe one is self titled and the other is Brain Cycles. That song is actually a little different than most of the other stuff but in the same vein. If you want links or anything let me know.

First of all, curse you all who hated my track "The tall ships"! I hope something slighly unpleasant happens to you, like an onion falling on your head!

Second, I'd like to venture to say taht this mix is not only about listening to other music, but it's also about interacting with others and letting them know what you think of their music choices. Pretty clear what you all think of mine, damn philistines!

Seriously, that's how I see it. Some of the music is good, some not so good but it's nice for people to be saying "Sir/Madam, your music sucks/rocks, or alternatively sucks rocks!"

I think it's pretty essential and hope it don't die....

Incidentally, I don't know why most of the songs about ships are sad, but they are. I suppose it's all based on ships taking people away from their loved ones. Not too many upbeat happy songs about ships that I know. Funnily enough, it was only that I had already submitted a Nick Cave track last week that I didn't use "The Ship Song" from him, and yep, it's a sad song!
