[FunJimmy]

Anyone out there into this hobby? I've been doing it for a few years now. I got tired of hauling 20 CDs at a time in my truck and fumbling with them while driving.I burn anywhere from 10 to 20 tunes onto 1 disk and just let it play.I leave a copy in my truck and one at work.
I call mine "The Good Sh!t" series. I just burned "Good Sh!t #13". It has 15 tracks.Aprox. 75 minutes of tunes.......tell me what you think...
1.Head-Static X  2:46

3.Wynona's Big Brown Beaver-Primus  4:24
4.Intro-Skindred  .29
5.Nobody-Skindred  3:56
6.D Devil-System Of A Down  1:43
7.A Is For Apathy-Powerman 5000  4:16

+1 on the jazz.  I'm just pissed that the local smooth jazz station switched to oldies.  It was the only one here in D.C., and now there's 3 oldies stations.  If it weren't for HD radio, I wouldn't have any smooth jazz.

A friend gives me a hard time, saying smooth jazz is all cover tunes and elevator music.  He shut up when I pointed out that Carlos Santana covered  "Oya Como Va", written by Tito Puente.

[Really?]

Lotta stuff there I have not heard in a long time but my music choice has changed a bit too.  I use a 2nd gen shuffle (wore out the memory on the 1st gen) on the bike (goes through a small amp and out a pair of Boston Acoustics or my headsets) and an iPhone in the car and around.

Here is some of the groups I listen to now.  I wonder how many of you listen to these groups.

    Evanescence
    VNV Nation
    Assemblage 23
    Ian Van Dahl
    Blutengel
    Tiesto
    Apoptygma Bezerk
    Imperative Reaction
    Above & Beyond
    Oceanlab
    Laava
    Markus Schulz
    Perpetuous Dreamer
    Kyau Vs. Albert
    TGAF
    Rostersand

So iTunes has this new thing called genius, basically you pick a song from your library and it picks other songs to make a 25, 50, 100 etc song play list of songs that "compliment" that particular song.

I've got a question, recently I flooded and most of the vynl got wet so maybe this will spur me to finally burn the stuff on to cd's what kind of scratch and pop filter do I need, other question anyone had experience with wet reel to reel tapes I've got a large tape with classic Spanish guitar things on it, also some old jazz that I'd like to try and save, a fairly large collection actually, Montoya ,Fats Waller ,Father Hines etc.
Thanks.
Bill the demon.

I have an AS in recording arts (which doesn't mean much). I dont think you should use any pop filters or anything to record the vinyl just a good record player with nice needles through a decent board. I was a DJ for years and like the pops and such but if they are really loud you can try to find the spot on the record and just run the needle through it back and forth and sometimes this helps. As for the reels I would try to lay them all out and dry them as much as possible. They might be ok once dried good and not sticking or anything. Id run em and see what happened. Hope this helps.

i recently bought a Sony Explod car stereo...it has an ipod plug in,an auxilary and an usb port..i picked up an 8 gig flash and went to town with the downloads.
before that i was into mixing cds without having the same band twice.
to list all the music i have would take days. it took me 8 hours to fill the 8 gigger.
i listen to everything from Blues to punk.
lately i have been downloading a lot of James brown,BB KING,Run DMC,Iggy pop,Albert King,Black Sabbath the Ozzie years,Grand Funk (love it) and so on.
Pirate bay is my main source of downloads...you can fin almost any bands Discographies (every album they have recorded including obscure bootleg stuff) just finished Zeppelins discography including the BBC recordings (great find)
my nephew who is 17 is getting into the oldies,so he is constantly over here loading up his Ipod...good to see the punks are still listening to good old rock and roll.as a matter of fact a while back someone here asked about tunes for a party he was having and my nephew went nuts reading the bands people were listing.
happy listening.
