Small Strokes Big Oaks

If you’re anything like me (and I bet you are, because you read this blog), you used to listen to music like it was the end all, be all of your universe. You would to lay on the ground in a dark room, with your stereo blasting (or your headphones, if you had roommates), with tears streaming down your cheeks because the music was just so beautiful. You refused to get an iPod because you thought it would ruin the music-listening experience. You remember making mix TAPES because that was a more authentic way of doing it than making mix CDs. And when you did make mix CDs, they were epic, with cover art and a track listing that you put inside a jewel case that you sacrificed from one of the CDs in your collection. Giving someone one of your mixes meant one of two things. 1) You respected their taste in music so much that you just had to share yours, or 2) You were in love.

And then, if you’re anything like me, you grew up, moved away, and lost touch with your friends, and with the music.

Fortunately for you (and me), there’s hope! I want to share music with you, and I want you to share music with me! So I created a Tumblr where you can submit mixes! Go to http://sidenumbertwo.tumblr.com and find out how to submit your mixes! Don’t forget to follow or subscribe so you don’t miss any of the great mixes!
