Haha, it's fine. I'm guilty of making weird comparisons like that, too.

Quote: I'm relieved Hi Naomi, I'm Sofia, your mixtape maker No probs about the lateness, I'm really glad to know you listened to it a few times and took that seriously. Plus, I knew in advance you'd take your time to review it, like you did in the last mixtape exchange (don't ask me why, I remembered that). So I was prepared and there's no big deal Anyway, here's my reply. I wanted to do it in the quote but then it got messy so I gave up ![]() 1) So this soothing voice belongs to a great artist previously known as Shipwreck and now called Lontalius from New Zealand. He is also known as 'Italian Plastic', Eddie, just here on Coldplaying It's from his first E.P, 'Singing To You Shipwreck'. You should really have a listen if you liked this one and also to another track called Emmett Brown. I love his work! 2) Haha sorry you didn't like it... I understand why though. I knew this would be a risky choice because you seemed not to listen to female voices that much and this one isn't very original. Anyway, it's a funny and short pop song I like and discovered recently from a band, Love Inks, called, as you guessed, Blackeye. 3) Yay, this one's for dancing I wanted to follow the previous mood with an electro dancing song. I really like the male voice and the musicality of this one, especially with the bass line and the electric guitar, though it's electro with the synth and the drum machine. It's from an American band, Penguin Prison. This song is called Golden Train and got famous here cause it opened a big TV show. 4) So glad you liked this one! I think you totally described everything well here, I got nothing left to say This is Shout Out Louds, a Swedish band, off their second album (they made 3) 'Our Ill Wills'. I can commend you some others songs from them if you want but basically their albums are all good 5) Yep, absolutely, dreamy music... That's what I love in this song, it always makes me float And I absolutely can't understand the lyrics neither It's Cannons from a little American band called Youth Lagoon. They're currently preparing their first album. 6) Aaaand... Right! Noah And The Whale! I really thought you'd know it because they're from UK... I couldn't help but put it anyway. I'm just in love with this song. All is perfect, especially the lyrics It's from their second album 'First Days Of Spring', my very favourite of them so far. You should listen to it if you didn't because it's a brilliant opus, really ![]() 7) This person's voice is... A female one I'm really glad you liked it!! It's Beach House with I Do Not Care For The Winter Sun. This is a free new song posted on their website a few months ago (right after the last mixtape exchange). I love this band, their last album, Teen Dream, is epic. You should check it out if you liked this song, a real dreamy album Oh and again, you're right, I always struggle to understand what she sings... 8) Once again, you said it all Bon Iver with Blood Bank, off their latest material, the Blood Bank E.P from 2008. Justin Vernon is a genius, his songwriting is so awesome... Always leaves me stunned. New Bon Iver album out soon, from what I already heard it's gonna be great... They also made an album called For Emma, Forever Ago (their first one). And Justin Vernon made some solo stuff (2 albums) if you wanna check out his work 9) You probably heard his first single on radio or TV, that's why it may sound familiar James Vincent McMorrow with Hear The Noise That Moves So Soft And Low, an Irish artist. Off his first album, Early In The Morning, that he recorded all alone during months in a small town in Ireland. He tried to use his voice as an instrument as he didn't have trumpets and all other stuff. I really love how it sounds. You'd like it I think, I commend you to check it out ![]() 10) Haha you cracked me up! To be honest, I didn't pay attention to that lyric line but maybe it's because every time I hear David Wingo's voice, my brain gets disconnected... Love the first line though ("shreds my heart, in million different places all the time") Anyway, this a song called Lakes Of Wine by the American band I absolutely love, Ola Podrida. Their stuff is mostly based on guitars and their lyrics are great too. They made 2 albums, both are awesome. 11) Yep, his voice is kinda special... That's why I like it! It's a French duet singing in English called Cocoon. They're not that famous here but all their shows are sold out very quickly (and they're good live too). Oh and the song is called Dolphins off their last album, which is great and better than their first one in my opinion. 12) Yeah you're right! Once again I was afraid you'd knew it because it's Florence Welch + Kid Harpoon and they're both from the UK Glad you liked it!! It's a cover from Bruce Springsteen's 'I'm Goin' Down', I love it 13) I agree about the grating thing, I always thought it gives him this funny sounding It's Little Comets with Her Black Eyes, off their great first album. I wanted to put a more upbeat song but I was afraid you'd knew it, as they're from UK too, so I chose to put this one, an acoustic and quieter one. 14) Haha, yeah, slinky as you say I like this funky vibe, Jamiroquai-ish as you say It's a young French artist singing in English (again!) called Charles Pasi. I got into him because he's the opening act for Jack Johnson, gig I'm gonna attend this summer Anyway, it's off his debut funky album, Uncaged. 15) I'm glad you liked the way I ended this tape I was a bit afraid too for this one, I thought this might not fit at all your tastes but well, I'm happy you understand why I put it on there... It's another French artist singing in English and Spanish, Jehro. He has lots of musical influences that's why his music is really interesting I think. This one is Tonight Tonight, off his second album out a few weeks ago and I've been waiting for 4 or 5 years know, Cantina Paradise. I'm glad you didn't hate the tape overall! To be honest, I immediately saw we didn't have the same tastes, though I also like some bands you like, so I thought I had basically 2 choices: making a tape that fits your tastes or making an original and coherent one with some different genres and unknown artists. I chose the risky way and I don't regret at all, I'm really glad I could make you listen to some different stuff. I understand why you think it was a bit boring in places, I also thought I put lots of acoustic tracks at the end... I'm also happy you liked the flow, I really worked on it and even made some last minute changes Oh and about the artwork... That's great you noticed it And no, it's not just your Coldplay brain, it's a picture I took during the beginning of the gig (Violet Hill), in Lyon in 2008 and it's Chris right here I'm kinda proud of this picture I admit ![]() Well, I'm finally done! Please feel free to ask me anything you want about the tape and the artists. I can also give you some material if you're interested and you can't find it Condensed tracklist: Song - Artist - Album #1 - Lontalius - Lontalius (previously known as Shipwreck) - Singing you to Shipwreck - 2010 - New Zealand #2 - Blackeye - Love Inks - (single track) - 2011 - USA #3 - Golden Train - Penguin Prison - (single track) - 2010 - USA #4 - Normandie - Shout Out Louds - Our Ill Wills - 2006 - Sweden #5 - Cannons - Youth Lagoon - (single track) - 2011 - USA #6 - Blue Skies - Noah And The Whale - First Days Of Spring - 2009 - UK #7 - I Do Not Care For The Winter Sun - Beach House - (single track) - 2010 - USA #8 - Blood Bank - Bon Iver - Blood Bank E.P - 2008 - USA #9 - Hear The Noise That Moves So Soft And Low - James Vincent McMorrow - Early In The Morning - 2011 - Ireland #10 - Lakes Of Wine - Ola Podrida - Belly Of The Lion - 2009 - USA #11 - Dolphins - Cocoon - Where The Oceans End - 2010 - France #12 - I'm Goin' Down - Kid Harpoon & Florence Welch (Bruce Springsteen cover) - UK #13 - Her Black Eyes - Little Comets - In Search Of Elusive Little Comets - 2011 - UK #14 - Up To Us - Charles Pasi - Uncaged - 2011 - France #15 - Tonight Tonight - Jehro - Cantina Paradise - 2011 - France EDIT: here's the link to my tape in case someone is interested: http://www.sendspace.com/file/ekd9zf

So here is my review, I'm sorry that it took so long... I hadn't much time this weekend, but here it is! I found it really annoying that on some tracks the artwork, or song details were not deleted correctly... But I tried not to look at it!
Track 1 So, a classical music piece from the soundtrack of the Amadeus movie. It's OK to listen to one time, it's great background music, but it's not music I could "listen" to, if you know what I mean... 6,5/10 Track 2 Weird choice after the first song... This is from Portishead right? I don't know the title of the song... It reminds me of the old James Bond films, was it used in one of those? Again OK, but not something I want to listen to more then once... 7/10 Track 3 Lotus Plaza - Red Oak Way says my music player. never heard of... Lovely intro with nice guitar sounds... But then some weird ticking noise, and a boring voice comes in, and other weird vocals... Not my type of music... 5,5/10 Track 4 Yeah Piano! But then also violin again, meh... Absolutly better then the first song, I especially liked the piano in it... 7/10 Track 5 Again Piano, with a nice voice! Lovely when the guitar and drums kick in... And then suddenly the song really starts... Great sound! The piano and guitar are really great in this song! Also the Bass melodies are really good! And lovely piano that ends the song, a bit jazzy sounding... Lovely song, absolutly the best of the mixtape! Never heard this before actually, so I really want to know who this band is! 8/10 Track 6 I've heard this song before! But don't know who this is... I really like this song! Great lyrics, and vocals! And the funny piano melodies, I started playing along with it on piano... Great song, really makes you happy! 7,5/10 Track 7 Again beginning with some violins... Classical piece again... There is piano in it, but no I didn't liked it... I know this is great music, and many people like it, but I just don't... 6/10 Track 8 Daedelus - Sundown says my music player again... Never heard before... What an awful music! I really don't like this... All the weird beepes, and voices, and ticking noices... Can people really listen to this, and enjoy this? Then some weird clapping audience suddenly... Weird drums... Messy music... 4/10 Track 9 A bit like Track 8... Again weird computer noices... OK this I can understand people like this, It's not bad... There are some interesting melodies in it... And keyboard melodys... some weird voices, and fast drums... Again it's not bad, but I can't listen to it much... Also the song doesn't progress or something (Is that correct English?) It doesn't change that much... Overall it's all the same... Although I like the melody on the beginning, and that comes back at the end of the song... 6/10 Track 10 So Windows says this song is from the movie "The Social Network", and my music player says it's from Jason Mraz! WEIRD, it isn't both I think... The overall melody is great, reminds me of Scary movies... But every other sound in the song is just awful... I didn't like that... Escpecially the end of the song... 5,5/10 Track 11 Interpol - Turn On The Bright Lies says my music player... I heard of Interpol, but never listened to it... So, guitar-y intro... Then bass, drums... Luckily another "Normal song"... It's not a bad song, but also not really exciting... A bit boring maybe... Escpecially the vocals... 6,5/10 Track 12 Is that a train? Clapping an a choir... Nice vocals... But it's not really a song, not many sound besides the vocals and the clapping... I think it's OK.. Althought I don't like the weird ending of it... Weird way to end a mixtape... 6/10 Overall I think it's a nice mixtape, a nice mix between 3 kinds of music, Electonical, Classical, and Rock music... I really liked that idea actually, because I don't listen to many electronic/classical music actually... So thanks for that! Track 6 and 7 are my favourite tracks, listened to them more now! I really want to know the bands who are behind those songs! Thank you for the Mixtape! Rating: 7/10

hi! I made your tape. I took a lot of chances cuz I know a lot of what I put on there was not necessarily to the taste of everyone. I hope it was an interesting experience either way though!
Quote: Again, I sort of had a weird genre combination going here, because I didn't want to bore you (which I trust I didn't, even during the weird computer noises! ). I also found it hard to gather much about your taste so I sort of just decided to wing it with this tape. Thanks for reveiwing!By the way, I am really quite sorry that all the information apparently didn't delete, but I checked each track on my computer and Windows told me it didn't know artist/album/cover information at all. :/ I don't think I've ever made this mistake before, or if I have, only on a few tracks that were hardcoded to protect the artist, etc information, so I'm really perplexed about that.
