Exchange Music Project Update…

Do not worry – I have not forgotten about this idea.  School is keeping me busy, but that’s no reason to not give you all homework.

The theme to this exchange is simple enough: Soundtrack to Your Life.  Make a list of songs that tells the story of your life – where you’ve been, where you want to be, what you do.  If that’s too much, then just a soundtrack for your day.

But, if you’re anything like me, you’ll need more direction to figure out your CD playlist. So, I offer this basic outline:

  1. Opening Credits:
  2. Waking Up:
  3. Life is Good:
  4. Secret Love:
  5. Quiet Moment:
  6. Falling In Love:
  7. Time with Friends:
  8. Breaking Up:
  9. Mental Breakdown:
  10. Driving:
  11. Flashback:
  12. Happy Dance:
  13. Regretting:
  14. “Fight” Song:
  15. Moment of Triumph:
  16. The Last Scene
  17. End Credits:

**This is just a suggestion for a track list – you don’t have to follow it. If you want to present your songs in another way, you’re more than welcome.

    Rules and guidelines:

    • It seems that the average CD will hold 17 songs, so try to keep the track numbers between 15 and 18.
    • As much as we all have favorite bands or favorite artists, think diversity.  At maximum, only have a max of two songs from the same band/artist.  If, for example, your favorite band broke up and old members started a new band, then three songs max from both bands.
    • Tracklist with the name of the song and the artist.  Simple list, numbered in order of the tracks on the CD.  Following each track, you can write something about why you chose the song.  Each “playlist” will be featured during the time the songs are available.

      That’s it for now.  Questions? Comments? Cookies? Comment or @ me on Twitter.

        Current ideas rather than mailing CDs to each other (to save on cost):
        1. FTP download site
        2. List of songs from everyone and you can download the ones that perk your interest.
        3. Flash drive loaded with all the songs that is passed around.
