Next Week: Our First Contributor
Finally able to step away from taking these mixes. It was fun but I’m glad to have some other people do the leg work, since that’s the point of this blog. I’ve had a few people sign up, but let me know if you’re interested, I’m still looking for more. E-mail me at oneweekonemix@gmail.com, or use the Ask/Submit features. Our first contributor is Matt. You can find his...

New Theme for Mix 3:
Are you sick of me making playlist’s yet? I’m not, I think it’s fun, but I could use a bit of a break. Hopefully, this will be the last week and I’ll be able to hand this over to contributors for quite some time. If you’re reading this and you’re looking to contribute to the blog anytime within the near future, now would be a good time to let me know. Check out...

Just a Test
Are all the tracks on the Illegal Activity playlist showing up? I’m having trouble seeing a couple, for some reason. Thanks. Never mind, now they’re all showing up. Cool!

Link: One Week \\ One Mix →
oneweekoneband:
No worries, we’re not spinning off (just yet!) — but OWOB reader Jeff felt inspired by this blog to start his own variation on our theme, and is currently setting up One Week \ One Mix, a mixtape Tumblr on which each week a new contributor will build and write about a Spotify playlist. Sounds like a neat idea!
We’re always flattered and humbled to be the source of inspiration,...

Picked up St.Vincent, Xiu Xiu, White Stripes, Flaming Lips. Not familiar with Refused, but interested!
Nice, good choices! Refused is a Sweedish punk band from the 90’s. The Shape of Punk to Come is an incredible album. Not to everyone’s tastes, but if you like punk, highly...

Back On Track!
I received some kind words and good advice from someone who has been running a blog like this for some time and knows what he’s doing. Turns out, I don’t need anyone to submit playlist’s, they’ll just e-mail me their link and content, and when I sign their posts off, I’ll link to their blog, twitter, Facebook (if they want), or nothing (if they don’t want)....

Potential Problem:
So, I thought there was a way to submit playlist’s to other people’s blogs, but apparently there isn’t. So I’m not sure how this is going to work, now. I’m a little disappointed. In fact, there doesn’t seem to be an option to submit any audio at all. Hmm. I could just reblog other people’s posts, but that’s not the best case scenario for anyone....

– Mark Richardson on This Is My Jam and the trappings of “sharing” culture in the latest Resonant Frequency. (via pitchfork) This might as well be the mission statement of this blog. It’s why I don’t want to just post links to songs or playlists. I hope people agree that thinking about why...

Petty crime from early punks: the Slits’ “Shoplifting”, Dead Kennedys’ “Stealing People’s Mail”, Blondie’s “X Offender”
More great suggestions! I’d only thought of one of these, I might have to consider adding more. Thanks!

PS: Westfall
Now that I load that playlist, I see at least one song I was eventually going to add (hint, it’s the first one). Great minds…

Who Is Your Musical Hologram?
Now that Tupac has joined will.i.am in the realm of musical holograms that look like they’re being projected out of R2D2, which musician would you choose to bring back to life and perform in hologram form?

New Theme: Illegal Activity
So now that I’ve got some basic content up, I’m going to make another mix and follow a theme a little more closely. After this week, I’ll start doing some promotions and hopefully getting some people willing to submit mixes. Now would be a good time to remind folks that if you’re interested in being a contributor in the near future, let me know. So the theme I’m going...

Is it a fantasy earth? For some reason, I always thought it was in fact it’s the earth.
After looking up the lyrics, it seems that you’re right. I was so confident in my interpretation I didn’t even bother to double check. I hate it when that happens sometimes.
djbradleyjames asked: Hey, thanks for the like! Let me know if you need any submissions or anything else! I like the idea of the page!
