A thought occurred to me yesterday. I don't want to sound like a Luddite, and I'm all for new technology, but will the rise of the MP3 player and the IPod mean the end of that lovely tradition - the Mix Tape. Many's the time I've laboured for hours putting together just the right combination of songs, either for myself or better still for that special someone - a collection of songs that express your mood at the time, one blending smoothly into the next until just the right sentiment is reached. It'll be a sad day if that ever disappears ...
architectonic:
I don't think the mix will ever disappear... it just gets updated. Many's the time I've made a playlist for someone, and then either sent it over email or burned it to CD. It evolves like the unkillable thing it is! xx
