Test case

In the future, the challenger will get to choose the theme for the next battle. With no champion to be challenged, I'll set the first theme: music acquired in 2010. Below is an example of how this could look, not an official entry.

Notes: My yearly wrapup compilation is spread over 2 mixes this year, 2010 deep and 2010 accessible. The accessible version is good for parents and girls, the deep version is for music geeks.

  1. Just not the ones I've been giving my mixtapes to.

    There can never be enough as far as I'm concerned.

  2. What's your December theme? I'll make one that you don't even have to put on the blog.

  3. We are taking the month of December off with all the craziness of the holidays, but we are back on in January (it's the 3 year anniversary). I will keep you posted.

  4. Three years of conceptual continuity. Nothing to sneeze at.

    If anybody in your gang wants to get down with the Mixtape Showdown, we're aiming to get off the ground in January. Something to keep in mind.

    Take care!
