Be It Resolved

...that mix tapes are best when they combine the familiar with the surprising and "challenging," and that "message" songs need not be serious. For instance, "That's Really Super, Supergirl" is a great song for any mix tape. I don't really know what it means. But anyway, if I got a tape full of stuff I didn't know from bands whose names I could not pronounce or are a little too twee and punny, I think that's grounds for rejection.

Ain't nothin' wrong with a little Luther Vandross. Or The Stone Roses!

Update:

Be it also resolved, that if said CD has a section appended in an ironic manner, "slow jamz," that it is best to close all windows leading to the public patio/parking lot when road testing this particular section.
