Some experiments in Code and Making web-based "Mix-Tapes"



Geoffrey MacLain / Jeff Wilson

My very good friend Jeff made these two disks the year before he died.
I'm pretty sure they are not available anywhere else.
2004



Papa Songs

Not fancy, no music, not my best versions, but these are recordings of me singing some of the songs I have sung for the kids at bedtime over the years.



Dreams of Home

A Mix-Tape I made in the 90's
- Tired of 'Melancholy' mixtapes, I decided to make a positive one instead...
If you look for good things you are more likely to find them...
This seemed like a good place to start experiments with building my web-player software.



Songs for Woody

A rip from a tape by Mark Alan who used to play at Jo Federigo's in Eugene, Oregon in the 90's.
- I once asked if he had more copies of the tape to sell because I wanted to give one to a friend, and he said, "No" but I was welcome to make copies for a few friends if they wanted them. Well I'm taking it a bit further, so Mark - if you want, I will take this down; but it was a fun exercise in learnig how to rip and clean-up an old cassette. Meanwhile, enjoy!



Bankhjørnet

A Tape from my time in Tromsø Norway in 1981-82
- This was a promotional tape put out by the Tromsø Savings Bank with local youth bands in "genuine Tromsø dialect."
I suppose there might be copyright questions, but until someone tells me otherwise I will put it up here as a promotion for
Norwegian Garage Bands from the 80's...








If you write html/css/js you may see and use the code for this web-player -
It is an HTML5 Music File player I wrote (Starting with some bare-bones open-source code)

  • This player scans its folder and automatically builds a playlist.
  • I tried to make it work intuitively for play, advance, rewind, and when you open the full playlist--it allows you to select any song to play directly.
  • Since it uses functions built into HTML5, most any modern browser supports it without installing anything extra.
