The Summer Mix is now available in like twelve different places. Go check it out today.
Okay, we might as well officially release this to the unwashed masses. Also, let's put this up to push Tommy off the front page for Rhu_Ru's sake.
Anyway, here are some things I said at the pre-release (which I've edited):
Some quick notes:
- We had a lot of submitters, and a lot of you chose longer songs. After that, there were a lot of other songs that should be on there, so the mix ran a little long.
- As such, for several reasons it just made more sense to split it into two parts. Each has a theme of sorts.
- Downloadable files are available (first link). I know at least in iTunes, if you use the "Song Info" option on each track, go to sorting, and select "Remember playback position", it makes it more manageable to skip around the longer tracks.
Have at it. 2020 is a weird year, and this is appropriately a weird mix. I like it though.
Sadly, I haven't gotten around to breaking it into songs as promised. HOWEVER, to ease consumption a bit, I had the idea to release it as a podcast. This way you can walk around with it but don't need to worry about getting it into your library (though that's still an option).
I'm going to try to get this on more platforms but here is where the Summer Mix is available for now:

Thanks everyone. I wasn't sure what to do with this mass of songs when it arrived, but I think it turned out rather well. Hope you enjoy!
Here's a familiar song from a familiar face.

Well, before the summer ends, we should feature the Summer Mix. Let's start at the beginning.
Okay, I swear I'm going to figure out how to break this into individual tracks. For now though, it's just two tracks; one for each part. I'm hoping to have the grand opening for the next FMD. In the meantime, it's dangerous to go it alone! Take these.
Some quick notes:

Oh, man, this one should be a doozy...
1. The theme is "Summer". You're free to interpret that as you'd like. Especially this summer...
2. Put your nominations in a Spoiler box.
3. You may nominate up to 3 songs. Any further nominations will be ignored.
4. Unless we get an insane amount of nominations for some reason, everyone's first choice is automatically in. The rest of the mix will be filled out with the other nominations.
Also, toss out a list if you feel like it.
