Running a Mux

Due to tape decks being nearly obsolete, the mixtape is fast becoming an extinct art form. However, the downside to the mixtape artistry was that if you wanted to share it with more than one person you had to make copies, which inevitably made the second and third generation version sound reasonably worse than the original. Mix CDs remedied the generation problem, but distribution still required sitting down and making multiple copies. Fortunately, with the popularity of the some thing called the ‘internet’, you knew someone was bound to remedy this problem. Enter Muxtape. The site, created by New York based web designer and photographer, Justin Oullette allows users to create their own mixtape by uploading their 12 song playlist, then storing said muxtape on their own subdomain. Users can then share their creation by sending a link to their friends. No copies to distribute. No mess. It’s all so very clean and filled with Ajax-y goodness. Anyone want to start a Muxtape club?
