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?

Mood Enhancing
I once made (and will probably get round to making again) a mood tape
in one job i had i used to have very bad days i used to come home very angry, sometimes boiling with rage and almost heart stopping adenaline kicks as i considered what i would like to do to some people that i worked with etc.. the reasons i shall save for another week
my poor partner would sometimes jump outta the way as i came through the door and this couldnt continue so i made a 'calm-down' CD for my journey home the running order went something like
- limp bisket - break stuff "everythings fucked everybody sucks, you just want to justify ripping someones head off"
- rage against - killing in the name "fuck you i wont do what you tell me"
- eminem - kill you
- eminem - stan
then some sort of midrange "what a shit life" songs
ending with
- enya - the celts
and then some of that relaxing rainfall/seashore music
it was designed to firstly let me scream out my rage (thumping steering wheel, overtaking, undertaking, under cutting, over cutting, double clutching, roaring engine)
then sit and reflect on life and how it will get better
then chill me out completely so i walk in the door looking like im a little fatigued from a long day
it did work very well, and now i have a much better job, however there are occasional days when i wish i had that old cd with me
length ? 47 minutes or 487.21 MB of digital audio data on a shiny disk
