J and J Present: How To [Blank] In 7 Easy Tracks
 

Due to a shared taste in music, Jackhammer and I thought it might be fun to do a collaborative mix thread. Here's how it works:

1. Jackhammer and I will each propose an idea for a "Seven Songs To _____________ To" compilation.
   
2. Anyone who wants to participate votes on which comp idea they'd like us to do.
   
3. After three days, voting is closed and the two of us each create a comp based around the decided upon theme for your listening pleasure.
   
4. Comment.
   
5. Repeat.

Just to get the ball rolling we have already agreed on a concept for the first pair of comps, "Seven Songs To Get In a Barroom Brawl To". Listen, enjoy, leave comments, and we'll soon be moving on to the voting for the next pair of comps. Here's the first pair:

Jackhammer's "Seven Songs To Get In a Barroom Brawl To" Mix

1. Gogol Bordello—"I Would Never Wanna Be Young Again"
2. The Hives—"Outsmarted"
3. Oasis—"Bring It On Down"
4. Capdown—"Cousin Cleotis"
5. Mighty Mighty Bosstones—"What's At Stake?"
6. Roni Size—"Streets"
7. Stone Temple Pilots—"Heaven And Hot Rods"

Janszoon's "Seven Songs To Get In a Barroom Brawl To" Mix

1. The Misfits—"Devilock"
2. Motorhead—"The Hammer"
3. Scratch Acid—"Monsters"
4. Rocket from the Crypt—"Birdman"
5. The Distillers—"Bullet & the Bullseye"
6. Probot—"Access Babylon"
7. Atari Teenage Riot—"Fuck All"

I love the idea! Downloading now.

Yay! How exciting. I can't wait to see what y'all come up with.

Big props for the inclusion of Motorhead's 'The Hammer' on Janszoon's mix and you can't beat some Atari Teenage Riot. I was very nearly going to put some Mad Capsule Markets in my comp who are like a noisier version of ATR.

Members can suggest themes for the comps, even if it's bizzare i'm sure we can find some music for any occasion!

I was thinking of making my own comp like this a while back in the Ten Track Compilation Thread. I was gonna make one "Ten Tracks To Play Call Of Duty To".

Great idea this, and some very good selections you've got there too. I was actually thinking of doing a drinking songs comp for the mixtape thread myself - have a go at that if you particularly want to :)

Definitely a nice idea this! I'll give it a go and comment which worked better for me and why. As for future ideas - how about "Seven Songs To Get A Nightmare To".

Seven songs to ban people to.

7 songs to do homework to.

Do you know how old we both are? lol
