tFS mix tape/cd project!

[.francesca]

hello everyone!

oh oh, i'm so busy, and estella is out travelling for a few weeks and won't have internet access, so we haven't really been able to work on the mix trade! we're very very sorry too.

pandinha, we think that it would be great for you to work on the july/august matches! if you want to pick a buddy to help you, that would be fine - it's a lot of work, plus if you're the only one working in it, you will know who will be making you a tape, and the secrets part of the fun! if estella hasn't given you the "guidelines" for putting it together yet, pm me and i can do that. there really are no real guidelines, but just an idea of an easy way to do it. if you figure out something else that works for you, go to town!

so pm me if you have questions and i'll fill you in. i guess it's too late to do june, but there is still july and august!

oh, and i'm sending 2 of the 4 matches i have to send out tomorrow

So, everyone that wants to join the JULY trade, please send your e-mail to [email protected] with july as your subject. Please send it until June 29, so we can get it together by July 1st. Let's do it!

 

[bleuFunk]

^ Does that apply to people who are signed up for automatic trades?

 

[.francesca]

if you're already on default, you shouldn't have to sign up again.

 

[pandinha]

Yes, default people have their own pretty label

I've sent in my application 2 weeks ago I think . Do you still have it or do I have to send a new one ?

Yes we have received you're application, so you don't need to do anything... you're in the mix ...

By the way is there anybody who has any idea for a theme or should we keep July open? ...

 

[Hye Park Lover]

Hey, could you put me back on default again? I dropped out for May and June due to the exam period, but it's over now, so it'd be great if I could partake again. (do I have to send email you my details again? )

---

For the theme, I was thinking maybe we could have 'couture' as the theme, to coincide with the July couture season... we could interpret the word in our own way, for example, it could be songs that remind you of couture, or songs that you think embody the meaning of couture, or it could simply just be songs you would have in the background of a couture show (I know we've done a similar theme for ready-to-wear in a previous month ) .... I don't know, just a quick brainstorm from me, or we could just have an open mix again

 

[adi]

just sended my application though i'm not sure was i supposed to put my postal address there also..

i think the couture-theme sounds exiting. i'll say let's do it!

 

[indie]

I'm gonna send my application too..omg I haven't done this for such a long time..
and whoever recieves my mix will get some free couture sketches too

Yes adi, we do need your postal address so your match know what address to send a cd/tape mix...

Hye Park Lover you are back on default and we have your details...

... and bad people who hasn't send any mixes to JR1 ... which reminds me I still have a mix in the making ...

It sounds like everybody is up for the couture theme...

 

[yourbestfriend]

*cough*

I'm quite behind in my mix, or was it one mix with 2 other voluntary mixes to send out...?

ahh, i dont even know anymore

 

[pandinha]

^ Just breath through it, open your iTunes and put Obstacle 1. Always helps me!
I already sent out 4 mixes and didn't get any.
And I quite like the couture theme.

 

[truebluejen]

Oh no pandinha

I've sent 4 and recieved 3 so I'm doing quite well!
Off to send my e-mail now

 

[pandinha]

Your matches will be in your respective inboxes soon (let's give 1-2 days ) and the theme for july then is couture.

COUTURE

 

[La bordélique]

I have a problem, what is couture music exactly? (I'm completely clueless.)

 

[truebluejen]

Couture refers to the creation of exclusive fashions. It is a common term for custom-fitted clothing as produced primarily in Paris but also in other fashion capitals such as New York, London, and Milan. Haute couture is not only made-to-order for a specific customer, it is usually made from high-quality, expensive fabric and sewn with extreme attention to detail and finish, often using time-consuming hand-executed techniques. The term is sometimes used to refer exclusively to French fashion; more often, it refers to any unique stylish design made to order for wealthy and high-status clients.

In case anyone isn't sure of the meaning.

This is quite a difficult one. I'll have to think about this!
