However, it's all gone a bit pear-shaped over at Muxtape's HQ and I feel a little bit foolish now. It looks like my twelve tracks have gone from my virtual tape and ended up in someone else's, as there've been one or two problems with their software and servers.
On May 21st, Muxtape experienced an error that caused every song in the database to be overwritten with the wrong artist & title. (from Muxtape's blog)
I must say that it was a very good concept, and right now I hope they manage to get everything sorted as soon as possible. If you're not too sure what Muxtape is, have a look at the article I wrote the other day for more information. By the way, I'm still on the hunt for recommendations etc., about the Presonus Firestudio. If you're using one, can you give me some info about it (pros and cons, that sort of thing) as there's just too much info to wade through on the web.

Wed, 14 May 2008 14:36:22 -0700 Mixtape, Muxtape http://mistrustmusic.posterous.com/mixtape-muxtape http://mistrustmusic.posterous.com/mixtape-muxtape Updated: 28th May 2008 It seems that my Mixtape/Muxtape isn't working because the Muxtape website has lost most of its data. I'm currently uploading a new playlist which should be available here shortly... Here's a word you don't come across much these days: Mixtape. Remember? The thing you made for your friends or for listening to in your car on a long trip, taping your favourite vinyl tracks or the week's Top 30 on Radio One. The thing you made for your mate's party. The mixtape is now only a mythical beast since the ubiquotous CD came along. Well, I came across a website that will let you recreate your favourite mixtapes online. It's a website called "Muxxtape", which lets you upload upto 12 tracks to create your very own mixtape. A lot of the people who've signed up seem to have have made mixtapes of their favourite albums (copyright problems anyone....?) and uploaded them to the site. Well, I thought I'd upload some of my own tracks from the last few years, seeing as though there may not be many new ones finished for a while. You can listen to my own "mistrust" mixtape by clicking the image below. There's also an RSS feed so you can add the playlist to iTunes etc and get notified of any updates.
