that to me isn't cool.. and I can see where things got to the heated debate they got. How others may not see it, and how .. well, as I said, I see it from a multitude of ways.

Joan: it appears that once you abstain... your vote regardless of being changed to a Yes or No... (No seems to be confirmed) does not subtract from you abstain total.. it looks like though it does add to the No total (in this case)

don't worry - I have only got 11 failed votes - one more is not going to change the world

mixtapes have come back into vogue for hip-hop. many artists are releasing on mixtape again (jay-z, pahrell, etc)
2006-05-06 12627, 2006
teleGUISE
these mixtapes.. seem like basement basics though
2006-05-06 12659, 2006

yep. that's old skool. buy cassettes on the strett corner :)

dont appear to be professional at all.. kind of like someone with a tape dubbing machine and a some spare time

in otherwords, home made - so why are we allowing them
2006-05-06 12650, 2006
nechto13
yllona: that was very nice of them. i'd never be able to ask my friends to do do that when i'm visiting. kind of hoping they'll read my mind :)
2006-05-06 12627, 2006
yllona
nechto13: once you're older your friends will learn to accomodate you ;)
2006-05-06 12620, 2006

joan: home made tapes is the way that rap / hip-hop started.
2006-05-06 12615, 2006
yllona
grandmaster flash, kurtis blow, run dmc . they all peddled home made tapes
2006-05-06 12610, 2006
yllona
that's why mixtapes have begun again. there's a movement to clarify hip-hop by retrning to it's roots.
2006-05-06 12612, 2006

this is a DJ va mixtape... basically a brewed comp with DJ voice overs...

yllona: they already make up all kinds of schedules to show me all the sights, i haven't seen. i think asking for a computer set up would be sort of pushing it :P
2006-05-06 12618, 2006
Joan_W
my views on hip-hop/rap are well known - I detest it - after a while it all starts to sound the same - there doesn't seem to be anything original any more
2006-05-06 12609, 2006
yllona
nechto13: i didn't ask. they just dragged an old PC out of the garage and hooked it into the network

yllona: they're not certified computer geeks are they? =)
2006-05-06 12657, 2006

you need to make them certified MBrainz geeks though :)
2006-05-06 12624, 2006
MartinRudat thinks he'd be able to dig up a computer should a friend come over... I'd need to surrender my big monitor, or go find a working CRT though...
2006-05-06 12604, 2006
yllona
joan: i agree, but i'm keeping an eye on the "return to mixtape" trend, could be something worthwhile. i'm a big fan of the jazz/rap collective work in the early '90's. digable planets, de la soul, pharcyde, US3, etc.
2006-05-06 12634, 2006

tele: i'm getting there, they've already set up last.fm accounts, and now they need to stream last.fm thru out the house on the fancy networked stereo system.

nechto13 wouldn't agree that there isn't anything original in hip-hop. although i can't say that i like the new hyphy trend. i think good music can be found. if you look for it

2006-05-06 12603, 2006

nikki_: russian joke: a man tells his wife that he will quit drinking and will drink only on holidays or when he goes to the bath house (russian tradition). next day. he askes her: Is today a holiday? She says: No, on which he replies: then i'm going to the bath house
Okay, it's Saturday morning 7.30 a.m. Nobody in their right mind should be looking at a computer screen at this time on a Saturday when they could be in bed - so as I am in my right mind (sometimes debatable) I am going back to bed
