break yr 70 tracks into 12, and release 12 EPs in one year. you could market the shit out of that concept, and you could build some traction with peeps online / offline, gaining interest in each release.

sorry to get all market-guy on you, but really, with 70 tracks you could gain a lot of new fans by just packaging it up in the right way. peeps dig concepts they can get behind.

i say stick with your idea and just cut each beat when it needs to be cut, form it into something an hourish long

theres no such thing as too many beats, just a beat thats playing too long

do what the fuck you want.

Who cares?

put em all out.

Make beats whenever and however many you want. you can always re-use samples and chop em up differently. I always re-use samples and no one can tell, hahha.

That's not too far-fetched. I like to listen to mixes like that. I don't like to have to download someones beat tape then unzip it.

I got some long mixes I've heard. If I were you I would maybe break it into part 1 and 2, but you should just do you.

Yeah, whatever you do make sure it never gets boring because it goes on too long. :)
