I used to make mixed tapes when I was in school. Put together a bunch of songs I liked and shared them with friends. Tapes are almost extinct. A close friend of mine requested me to do a podcast mix for her some time ago.

After a busy summer, I finally found some time this weekend to put together a compilation. The work involved: found a bunch of songs, recorded them to the PC, arranged them into orders, edited the extra blank space, normalized the volume of all the recordings, recorded the songs into a disc image, converted them into mp3s, merged all the mp3s together.

Sound quality of resulting mix was not as good as I desired, but I just had to compromise with lower sampling rate so the file wouldn't take too long to download. The normalization clipped some of the songs, but the mix was still listenable.

Some dance, alternative, acoustic, rock, and pop songs. This is a compilation of tunes that I think may be interesting together. (I couldn't believe I ended up with 3 Limp Bizkit songs in the mix.)
