Along with the announcement of our newly launched Free Mix CD Club, we wanted to share with you the first batch of Mix CDs made by your good friends at Suburban Home Records. This is where you can help us out. We are having a contest at the Suburban Home / Dead Format offices to see whose mix tape gets selected the most. The person who has the most popular mix tape throughout the next month will get a $50 gift certificate at the shop of their choice. I realize that this doesn’t help those of you that will be posting mix CDs, but we will have future contests for you. Here is a list of all of the people who have posted mix CDs along with links to their mixes:
Kyle Pedersen
Brandon Proff
Andy Robbins
Seabron Ward
Hannah Dowd
Chris Grassello
Marshall Gallagher
Virgil Dickerson
Julia WechslerÂ
Note that you must put one of the mix CDs in your shopping cart in order to get one. And please note that you can only get one per order. Anyone that asks for more than one, will only get the first one they selected.
Your pals at Dead Format have come up with an easy way to share the songs you love with your friends. All you have to do is make a mix cd (with songs available from Dead Format releases) and mail it to us along with a little bit of info (rules below). We will do the rest. We will give you a url where your mix cd will be featured and anyone can select your mix cd and get one for free with their order. You can tell your friends to pick up your mix cd and we will send it along with their order. Help your favorite labels and bands by putting them on your mix cd. Encourage your friends to support the bands you know and love and pick up other mix cds to find out about new artists. We think that this will be a fun and easy way to find out about new music as well as share your favorites with your friends. We hope you consider making a mix cd and if you do, please read on:
