Where do I sign up? Actually, some folks on the ambient list at hyperreal were involved with a similar idea. There were two projects, one which was a continuous remix tape, and another which was just a series of tapes with original tracks, each participant adding their own piece. Unfortunately it really didn't seem to work out too well, because people would neglect to pass the tape on or would change email addresses without letting the list members know. I was part of the original submission chain but never received a single tape. A good idea but it requires 100% commitment from the participants or else it will tank halfway through. GD
