Online mix tapes in minutes with Mixwit

June 4th, 2008  |  music

I’ve have a longstanding love affair with mixtapes. I’ve written about this in a little more detail in my review of Muxtape. So you can imagine my excitement when I learned about the new online mixtape site on the block, Mixwit.

There are some significant differences between Mixwit and Muxtape. Users can create multiple mixes, there’s no song number cap and the mixes play in a clever little animated cassette tape player. There’s also a smart search (by user, artist, song andmix title), simple three-step wizard to create mixes and great shareability (one click add to social networks or an embed code).

For me, what truly puts Mixwit in a league of its own is how you choose the songs for your mix. Unlike Muxtape, where you have to upload the mp3s themselves, Mixwit has partnered with music search services Seeqpod and Skreemr and allows selection from their vast libraries. The result is an easy, fast, very flexible and social way to create a mixtape. Listen to one of my theme mixes (color) below.

Sign up and make your own (Feel free to fav any of my mixes, while you’re there). Better yet, drop me a line or comment with your MW username. Part of the fun of making mixtapes is sharing them.

Thanks to megfowler for the tweet that turned me on to this!
