Volumes 7 & 8

Thank you so much to everyone for participating in last week’s Volumes! This week will be a little different - for one thing, you’ve got until December 27th to submit - and it’s not quite a holiday theme. More like an approaching New Year (ish) theme for these.

Submissions OPEN!

This blog is dedicated to making Gundam Wing fanmixes and playlists.

Ever wondered what our favorite boys listen to while laying waste to OZ? What Relena has playing in her pink limo on her way to school? What music Duo and (insert your character of choice) dance to at their wedding?

All submissions are welcome, and all song choices will be selected and published.

To submit, go to the submissions page and follow the directions!

  Next Volumes: All about looking back and looking ahead

Volume 7:

Kings of the Road -  Roadtrip!  Trowa inserts a beat up disc into the radio of their truck on the way to Heero’s redemption at the hands of Sylvia Noventa. (playlist submitted by greeneyes-softsighs)

Volume 8: 

Always Tomorrow - songs for remembering the past and thinking about the future, with a bit of a winter flair.

  In addition, if there are any talented artists out there who would be interested in sketching up quick covers for these mixtape volumes, you will be loved forever and praised until my voice is hoarse/and fingers numb.

Submissions are open until Saturday December 27th at midnight EST!

Mixes will be posted by December 29th at 9pm EST.

Extending Deadline to Sunday at 12:00 PM EST since there aren't many submissions yet.

Brief Hiatus

Sorry all, but I will not be able to post the mixes this week and need to take a week off and tidy up some issues. I promise to have these posted by NEXT Monday at 9pm and have the next prompts posted by then as well.

Thank you for your patience - take care everyone!

Slight Delay

Hey All!

Sorry, but because of a few technical difficulties and a rather busy few days, Volumes 5&6 will be SLIGHTLY delayed. Please be on the lookout mid-week and I apologize for this!

[captainmixtaper-blog]

Volumes 5 &6

Thank you so much to everyone for participating in last week’s Volumes 3&4! I will go back at some point this week and edit those posts to include complete track lists - my apologies! In the meantime, I hope everyone has enjoyed listening to those awesome mixes. Everyone had such great songs.

A friendly poll:

When you submit your songs for this week’s playlists, let me know if you would be interested in any kind of holiday or winter themed playlists for Volumes 7&8 and/or Volumes 9/10.

  Submissions OPEN!

This blog is dedicated to making Gundam Wing fanmixes and playlists.

Ever wondered what our favorite boys listen to while laying waste to OZ? What Relena has playing in her pink limo on her way to school? What music Duo and (insert your character of choice) dance to at their wedding?

Each week this blog will publish prompts for 2 mixtape volumes on Tuesday, inviting all fans to submit 2 songs to each volume. All submissions are due by Saturday at 12:00am EST and the final playlists will be published on Monday at 9:00pm EST.

All submissions are welcome, and all song choices will be selected and published.

To submit, go to the submissions page and follow the directions!

  THIS WEEK:

Volume 5: Luau! Howard has always wanted to throw a luau and now that the wars are over it seems perfect. Of course, Duo gets to his sound system and throws in a few other songs as well, but this playlist is dedicated to summertime, surfing, crazy floral shirts and partying (submitted by tumbledrylemur).

Volume 5: Afterthoughts. Commander Une is grateful for peace, grateful for her position as the head of the Preventers organization, but sometimes she misses the old days. This is her playlist for indulging in those memories.

  In addition, if there are any talented artists out there who would be interested in sketching up quick covers for these mixtape volumes, you will be loved forever and praised until my voice is hoarse/and fingers numb.

Submissions are open until Saturday at midnight EST!
