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?

an actual true story, that centres around a mix-tape.
When I was in an anti-racist group a while ago, someone decided to strike a blow for the white race by sending us, anonymously, a mix-tape of Nazi rock.
Two things:
1) if they were friends with someone, presumably they'd show it by making them a mix-tape of Nazi rock.
Unless they firebombed their best friend's house, sent us the tape, and then thought "hang on, something's not right here..."
2)When the papers talk about Nazi music, they tend to describe it along the lines of "hateful lyrics screamed over a wall of sound" and so on...they make it sound kind of cool.
Not so. Take blink 182. Purge it of Negroid elements such as harmonies and guitar lines. Add the sound of someone trying to make their ideas sound inspiring, while realising that they can't really talk about any of their ideas because people find them kind of revolting. In practice this means constipated insurance-ad imagery along the lines of 'the banner of the white man waves proudly over us all.' Ensure that the quality control is based on the fact that they have to take what they can get. And there you have it. Nazi rock: Christian rock if Christian rockers regularly stabbed each other over drug money.
