Since my webcomics have temporarily (a word which here means "for at least two years") fallen through, I decided to get back into audio editing and making mixtapes, and tried out for a show at the local community radio station.

It's called Waveforms.


I probably won't be posting next week's show here, as I'm going through a move and starting college in a week, and my home computer (where I do 80% of my pre-mixing) crapped out last night - so next week's show probably won't be very good.

But anyway, here's the playlist.

  • Mr. Nogatco - Alpha-Omega
  • Hexstatic - Ninja Tune
  • Architeq - Odyssey
  • DJ Zeph & Vursatyl - Go Back

  • The Strokes - Juicebox

- Break -

  • Arovane - Tokyo Ghost Stories
  • FC Kahuna - Hayling
  • Aphex Twin - Xtal (Worst "transition" ever. Ignore it.)


BTW: In case you're wondering how long it took to mix all of this:

A long, long time.

Also, I know my radio announcing is poo. It was 4 in the morning, I hadn't slept, and I was kind of nervous.

Heh, pretty awesome playlist.

Thank you. I like the second hour better than the first, personally. Mixing that shit took all week.

Thanks in advance.

Very cool! And you do all of these audio mix tapes yourself? Is it for a specific group or just stuff you like to do in your free time?

It started out as just stuff I liked to do in my spare time, although my first full-length mixes were done for my friends.

Everything's done in Adobe Audition, BTW.

Awesome.us I sometimes use audacity for editing sound files, but Audition is great as well.

Aw, that blows. Do you/ have you thought about creating a website? You could have an archive and offer them as downloadable podcasts.

I have thought of it. What's involved in that and how much would the bandwidth cost?

Could I host the shows on Soundcloud?

Of course there was a show, I just... don't want to discuss it.
