I like making mixes. Almost as much as I like designing covers for mixes. If I had more to say on the subject, I wouldn't use Greeked Text from this point on: Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit, sed diam nonummy nibh euismod tincidunt ut laoreet dolore magna aliquam erat volutpat.

	The RPM Covers Project, Vol. 1 Monkey vs. Robot This compilation is a project started on my Robot Pirate Monkey page. Back when Gmail was special, and I was special too, I occasionally used GmailSwap to give away invites. Someone named Fandangoya posted that he'd sing the song of your choice in exchange for an invite. So I asked him to sing James Kochalka's "Monkey vs. Robot." It was so good and so bad that I needed more. I wanted to make an entire covers album. After almost two years it finally happened. All of these recordings were made specifically for this project (except #8, the original version by Kochalka). Good job, everyone!

	Sunday Songs For a non-existant 2006 MeFiSwap I missed out on the earlier MeFiSwaps for 2006, then the final round never happened.

	MeFiSwap 2005/A (Diane's mix) [Pull Up The Covers] Diane loves MefiSwap time, as she always finds a few new songs that she loves.

	Mucous Plug The Bloody Show This is a two-CD birthing mix I made for Diane for Liam's birth (Note that that is not Diane on the cover! Liam was born in a hospital.). She picked all the songs and order and I put it together. During labor she decided any and all music only contributed to her nausea, so we didn't really listen to it.

	45 Jive Exclusively 45 RPM This mix was made exclusively from scratchy 45 RPM records. Some were childhood favorites, some were friend's childhood favorites, some were new discoveries and some were just crap from flea markets.
