http://trailerschmailer.com/

But with a bit more information about the artist, genre, etc. When you click on the cd cover the tracklisting would appear as well along with all the other information.

I can't work on the page without any mixtapes/albums though :P.


That page looks fresh man... though I think it would be easier to navigate through a list (alphab. order).

What can we do to get people sending their albums to you?
I thought it would be cool to have 2 threads in the top of the your music section one that includes the infos how to upload the music to keesj and another one is just a long long list with all the lps sorted by artist name or sth. Sure there might be way more cooler options to represent that ish but for me it's just important that it's easy, updated and that it works.

I know I want a lot... :roll:

An alphabetical list might be easier to navigate, but for me the page is more about trying something different. Experimenting a bit. If you're looking for a specific title you can use the search, but if you just want to check out some random trailers you can by just clicking on the cover that catches your eye.

I agree the mixtape collection should have the titles and artist shown though. But I think a grid-based view would be pretty cool. Similar to the iTunes grid view ( http://cultofmac.com/wp-content/uploads ... d-view.jpg ).

As for the topics in "Music" section, good idea! I will create the first one (listing all the information) and add the second one after the whole page is set up and has some mixtapes.

Dude it's pretty cool that you want to have a bit more attractive the visual way... No problem with that at all ... I just wanted to keep the work low for you... Experiment to the fullest dog! 8) It's your church.

Would be cool to get this thing started with some older albums...

I guess it's up to the people in here...

Yeah, I will be going on vacation to Prague this week though. So the page will have to wait till the week after. But in the mean time you guys can collect some (old) mixtapes. Just send them to me and I will start working on the page when I'm back.

Almost got something ready.

So if you have a mixtape or album, or another collection of self-made music send me an email


Probably superfluous, but mixtapes with remixes are allowed, right? I'm currently looping the heck out of a bunch of songs, forging a continuous stream of semi-dubstep style music. :P

edit: Yikes, it's been a while, but I got half of my tracks ready for the first tape. Not yet fully working on the dub-step remix tape though.
