They&#8217;re so much fun to make &#8211; especially when they have wide appeal.<\/p>\n<p>Some time ago I made a CD called &#8220;Driving Fast&#8221; for my friend Chris&#8217;s birthday. It was a good CD too, so later I gave copies of it away to other friends.<\/p>\n<p>Today (or more accurately, last night) I finished making the master CD for my &#8220;Driving Fast Volume II&#8221; CD, which I made a few copies of today and gave away to some of the same friends. It&#8217;s a great CD, let me tell you. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.starkeith.net\/coredump\/Driving%20Fast%20Volume%202.pdf\">Here&#8217;s a link<\/a> to a PDF of what it looks like (just imagine it printed on a white CD label, okay?). You can also see the track list from that PDF.<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re interested in some of the songs on the CD for yourself, just visit the fine folks over at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ocremix.org\">OCRemix<\/a> and download most of the songs from there. A few others were inspired by anime music videos &#8211; videos where people take music &amp; splice together scenes from (generally) popular anime series &#8211; often to amazing dramatic effect. For example, the people over at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.morethantoast.com\">MoreThanToast<\/a> did a few videos that I have, and they inspired some of the songs on this CD, including Girls, Chick Magnet, and ONly in Dreams. I definately recommend that you check them out.<\/p>\n<p>Oh and BTW, the &#8220;Horn Dog&#8221; track is the music used by Mitsubishi in its advertising for cars like the Outlander and Endeavor. So in a way, it&#8217;s the &#8220;theme song&#8221; to my car!<\/p>\n<p>-Keithius<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I love making mix CDs.
