Tonight I was playing around with playlists in <A HREF=\"http:\/\/www.apple.com\/itunes\/\">iTunes<\/A> and realized I could burn audio CDs.

Not mix tapes\/cds liked I&#8217;d do now as a DJ, these were just selections of songs to send to friends.  They were a great way of sharing music with people. There was also a bit of creativeness in how you put together the tape.  I always liked trying to make sure the tapes I made would flow from one song to another. Making mixtapes was the first step towards me being a DJ too.  That same thinking about how the music flows from song to song is very important when you are actually mixing songs together.<\/P><\/p>\n<p \/><P>So, back to iTunes. iTunes lets you burn CDs in both audio and mp3 format.  With more and more audio devices understanding these I&#8217;m psyched to have this capability, even if I can&#8217;t quite use it yet (though I do have my eyes on that code free dvd player that can, and it is on sale!).  Looks like it&#8217;s time for a new CD (just not a new DJ mix).<\/P><\/p>\n<p \/><P>(<EM>Oh, and for those of you waiting to hear the set from the Phoenix Landing, I&#8217;m working on it.<\/EM>)<\/P><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I feel like I&#8217;m zooming into the past.
