1. Most people downloaded the mix rather than asking for CDs this year. It appears the long-foretold mainstreaming of digital music is finally upon us. (Of course, now I’m stuck with a stack of CDs.)
2. Most people seem to use the execrable iTunes.
3. When you import the mix into the execrable iTunes, it completely scrambles it—won’t play it in order. And of course, song order is crucial.
Damn you iTunes.
The 2008 mix is here, a bit late but no worse for wear. You can see the set list here.
As always, the easiest way to get it is to download the torrent. It’s a two-step process:
1. Install this program. (Or if you’re on a Mac, this one.)
2. Click this link.
Done!
(Previous years’ mixes can be found here.)
If you prefer to download it the old-fashioned (read: slow) way, you can do that here.
And finally, as always, if you’d like a CD send me your address and I’ll mail you one. (Really, even you.) I’ve got a stack of CDs and a stack of padded envelopes—don’t let them go to waste. I need the good karma.
Meanwhile, this is how to fight with a lightsaber:
It’s a few weeks late, but the Realish Mix 2007 is here. I’d love to give you a copy.
If you want to download it, you can here.
To download it, you’ll need a bittorrent client.
If you’re using a Windows machine, download and install this one. If you’re using a Mac, try this one. Feel free to contact me if you run into trouble.
If you don’t feel comfortable using bittorrent (which is, I promise, fast, easy, and free), you can download directly: set list, playlist side one, playlist side two, side one files, side two files.
If you’re old-fashioned and want a CD, just send me your address and I’ll drop one in the mail. “Even me?” you ask. “But I barely know you.” Yeah, you too. Think of it as me paying general karmic debts accrued during my unfortunate 15-30 years. I have a stack of CDs, a stack of envelopes, and a book of stamps. Just say the word.
