SAN FRANCISCO MIXTAPE SOCIETY ANNOUNCES A SUMMER PARTYDEDICATED TO THE ART OF MAKING AND EXCHANGING MUSIC MIXES
The San Francisco Mixtape Society has announced the theme of “Foreign vs. Familiar” for its
third music mix exchange and contest, to be held at San Francisco’s Make-Out Room on Sunday,
July 11, 2010. The party, which is open to the public and free to attend, is dedicated to the art of
making and exchanging music mixes. Attendees are invited to assemble a mix according to the
theme in any format, whether cassette, CD or USB.
Mixes will be traded over the course of the evening through a spirited raffle. All attendees who
bring a music mix will leave the event with a mix made by someone else. Additionally, all attendees will
be able to cast votes for the mixes with the best track listings and artwork.
Anyone who brings a mixtape to the party is eligible for the following prize packages: Audience
Choice, selected by popular vote, and Best Packaging, selected by judges. Additionally, a Best Mixtape
prize winner will be selected by judges from mixtapes submitted in advance to the San Francisco
Mixtape Society website. To pre-submit a mixtape for the Best Mixtape award, which is selected
on the basis of music, attendees are invited to visit http://www.sfmixtapesociety.com.
The makers of the winning mixes will be invited onstage to speak about their music selections
and receive prize packages valued at up to $50, presented by sponsors including the San Francisco
Modern Art Museum (www.sfmoma.com), Matador Records (www.matadorrecords.com), Photojojo
