Here’s a great, but short, mini-megamix of early 90’s techno that I found from DJ CRS? on soundcloud.

Chrissy Murderbot started an incredibly cool mixtape blog back in June. He’s posting up a new mix every week, for 52 weeks or so, with 33 weeks to go. The mixes, selection, themes and commentary are all a lot of fun.

These are the ground rules he’s laid out for himself:
1) Every mix will (more or less) have a theme of some sort.
2) All mixes will be recorded live in one take (some post-production editing to get things down to a reasonable time).
3) No repeats—no song will pop up twice in his blog.
4) Likewise, no song that has previously appeared in a mix of his published on the web will pop up on his blog. Unless he gets really lazy one week and posts one of those mixes on his blog, which will probably happen at some point.
5) If it’s a live set (i.e. somebody recorded him DJing at some party and gave him the audio and he’s posting it there), then rules 3 & 4 are out the window.
6) Every mix will be timed to fit on either a CDR or a cassette tape.
7) He’s open to requests. He might not pay them any attention whatsoever, but then again he might.

Here are a few of my favorites from his project:

These mixes from San Diego DJ, Jon Bishop, are part of the mixtape box set The California Project. In the spirit of leaving more fun for you (read: less work for me) no attempt was made at a tracklisting on these mixtapes.

It’s time to rewind to “The Darkside” of 1993 with a proper jungle / breakbeat hardcore mixtape, laid down nicely by DJ Curious. The Darkside is part 1 of a two tape set, to which we’ll be posting the second tape very soon. If names like Hyper On Experience, Luna-C, Remarc, Back II Back, Basement Records, Dark Horse Records, and Suburban Base Records put a smile on your face, then this mixtape is sure to do the same.
