    Hey everyone, after a successful first thread, we're coming back again this month to do Mixtape Club. This month, we're going with the theme of love. This theme is pretty broad as it's not just talking about the happy aspects of love (relationships, family members, etc.), it's also about the sad/bad aspects (heartbreak, betrayal, etc.). So you can make a mixtape for your love or one to get over him/her, it's your choice. Anyways, the rules:

    -Go solo or have teams of 2 or more, it's your choice
    -10 track limit
    -Mixtapes due by 8/1
    -No music made by yourself
    -Put together the tracks in iTunes, YouTube, Spotify, etc.
    -Need to have an album cover + team name or solo name
    ​

    Instead of picking one winner, I've decided 3, but for different reasons:

    TAPE I COULD PROBABLY SHOW MY GRANDPARENTS - NOIR SUMMER: IT'S COOLER IN THE SHADOWS (Bleed)

    [​IMG]

    This mix by @Bleed is a great mixture of classic soul, R&B, and jazz, along with some modern tunes inspired by those genres. Wonderful mix!

    TAPE THAT MADE MOST NOSTALGIC FOR A PLACE I'VE NEVER BEEN: DOG DAYS IN THE DREG (SuckedMartysDick/TheOddPope)

    [​IMG]

    Relatively new member @SuckedMartysDick (he ain't new to me) came through with a great mix of noise rock/punk rock tunes that really makes me want to hang out at a dirty part of an LA beach smoking some weed. Check it out.

    TAPE THAT WOULD INSTANTLY MAKE ME PRETTY COOL IN THE UK - ITBOAE (Radeem)

    [​IMG]

    Besides the intro, this tape is a great mix by @Radeem of house/electronic music that would either make me a pretty cool dude going into the UK, or a c----. Anyways, great mix, definitely listen to it.
