“The making of a good mix tape is a very subtle art, many do’s and don’ts. First of all, you’re using someone else’s poetry to express how you’re feeling. This is a very delicate thing.” Rob Gordon, High Fidelity

Welcome to The Mixtape Master. Here you’ll find music compilations in the form of mixes (similar to playlists of course, but shorter in length and typically more precise in intentionality).

A mixtape or CD mix is limited to no more than 20 songs (74 minutes or less), because that was the limit that we could burn onto a CD-R. Cassette tapes, like records, had two sides, which made for a much different listening experience, but for the sake of this site and the compilations within, the rule of >20songs/74minutes will apply.

Listen. Explore. And please, share your own!
