This is a question Mix Tapes

Everyone's made a mix tape (or CD, USB stick, or whatever kids do these days). Mostly to get in someone else's pants, but we're sure there are other, lesser, reasons too.

So, who did you make it for and why?
And... what was on it?

Mixtapes with no ulterior motive
Many tapes are made to impress da laydeez. I also made tapes to listen to in the car - this is in the days before any sort of decent radio.

I used to share a house with my mate Hairy Chris, and one night I ambled in through the front door with some ninja grade tapes and four bottles of decent red wine to add to whatever he had in stock. We compiled 'good driving tapes' until the sun came up, drank all the wine, and had a bloody great evening of laughter, confession, and talking bollocks. You can hear the quality control fall off as the evening wears on, until at the end of the night's recordings you get KLF vs ENT's version of 3am Eternal....

If I tried to do that now, it would be forced and fake. Sad, in a way. Besides, now it would be a CD which takes seconds. Not the same. Ah, the good old days.
