QC Mixtapes (Media Meditation #3)

QC MIXTAPES

QC Mix tapes is a music website that was created by a former Champlain College student. I find that QC mix tapes is a new way to listen and view music. When you look at the website it presents its self-different then most music websites. It streams rectangle photos of a DJ’s cover for their mix tape. I feel it invokes my limbic brain because instead of searching for music by browsing artist titles, I’m trying to find music though images.

QC mix tapes allows you to be connected to Facebook, RSS, Twitter, and Myspace. QC mix tapes shows a personal shift in music because it allows you to search in many different generas. What makes QC mix tapes different then other music downloading websites is that the music is in one long track that flows together. Even though its one track there are multiple songs all on it. QC mix tapes helps you find other mix tapes that you might like, and you can even use it on your I phone. (Aesthetic shift)

If you check out QC mixtapes you will find that the pictures that stream use beautiful people, humor, testimonial people and warm and fuzzy to get people to check out there mix tape. Another awesome part of QC mix tapes is that while a mix tape is playing you can hover over the song with your mouse and see the artist and song. QC mixtapes also allows people to leave comments on any mixtape. (Discursive Shift)
