ARTICLES RELATED TO Mixtape - Mix tapes vs. compilations | | | |  Mixtape - Mix tapes vs. compilations: Encyclopedia II - Mixtape - Mix tapes vs. compilationsMany commercially available compilations of pop music, such as those in the consistently best-selling Now That's What I Call Music! series, initially seem to share certain important characteristics with mix tapes. Like many private mixes, a significant number of the earliest pop LPs were essentially collections of popular singles, and such compilation albums have often taken cues from underground mixes of the same era. One example is Disco Par-r-r-ty, the first nonstop dancing LP record, which was released by Spring Records in ...

| | | | Mixtape - Mix tapes vs. compilations: Encyclopedia II - Mixtape - Media references to mix tapes Since the publication of Nick Hornby's High Fidelity, the frequency of literary and pop cultural references to mix tapes has increased considerably, although Hornby was far from the first author to mention the phenomenon. Some of the earliest references to mix tapes can be found in Less Than Zero, the 1986 novel by Bret Easton Ellis. For example: "We get into Blair's car and she puts in a tape that she made the other night and Bananarama starts to sing and Trent asks her where the Beach-Mix tape is and Blaire tells him that she ...

| | | | Mixtape - Mix tapes vs. compilations: Encyclopedia II - Mixtape - Mix tapes in global culture All of the references to mix tapes cited above come from media sources in the United States, the United Kingdom, or continental Europe. The use of mix tapes in other countries is less documented. However, it seems reasonable to believe that mixes exist wherever access to popular music is combined with a convenient means of recording homemade compilations (although mix tapes may not have been a significant element of the youth culture in such countries). For example, Sarah Erdman's 2003 book Nine Hills to Nambonkaha includes a description of the tape ...

| | | | Mixtape - Mix tapes vs. compilations: Encyclopedia II - Mixtape - Aesthetics While the process of recording a mix onto an audio cassette from LPs or compact discs is technically straightforward, many music fans who create more than one mix tape are eventually compelled to confront some of the practical and aesthetic challenges involved in the mix tape format. From a practical standpoint, such issues as avoiding an excessive amount of blank tape at the end of one side (which requires careful planning of the length of each side of the mix) and reducing the audible click between songs (which requires mastery of the paus ...

| | | | Mixtape - Mix tapes vs. compilations: Encyclopedia II - Mixtape - History In all likelihood, the first homemade mix tapes began to appear soon after the introduction of the compact audio cassette by Philips at the 1963 Berlin radio show. Before the introduction of the audio cassette, the creation of a pop music compilation required specialized or cumbersome equipment, such as a reel-to-reel player, that was often inaccessible to the casual music fan. As cassette tapes and recorders grew in popularity and portability, these technological hurdles were lowered to the point where the only resources required to create ...

| | | | Mixtape - Mix tapes vs. compilations: Encyclopedia II - Mixtape - Terminology The term mix originally referred to the recorded output produced by mixing sounds from different audio sources on a broadcast or cinematic soundtrack, or in the recording studio. (The earliest citation of this use by the Oxford English Dictionary is from a 16 March 1932 issue of Wireless World.) Subsequently, it also referred to a live audio mix produced by a club DJ, who would attempt to seamlessly blend two prerecorded songs by using beat-matching and pitch control. A mix tape was the reel-to-reel or cassette re ...
