TWTRCON MIXTWEET VOL.2 BAY ABRIDGED EDITION

Download the MixTweet: Volume 2

Six months ago Anne Weiskopf, VP of Business Development for Modern Media, asked MVMT and Nick James Music to curate a mixtape for TWTRCON NY 2010, a one-day conference featuring case studies, workshops and mini tutorials about real-time tools from the world's leading brands and social media practitioners. We dubbed the project "The MixTweet: Volume 1" and filled it with music inspired by the Twitter experience. The release was a success, serving as the background soundtrack to the day's events. We heard Martha Stewart was tapping her foot to Blitz the Ambassador's "Something to Believe."

Six months later, Weiskopf made a request for "The MixTweet: Volume 2," so we partnered with the local tastemakers at 38th Notes to create the score for TWTRCON SF 2010. 38th Notes is founded by Coolhand Luke (aka Lukas Brekke-Miesner) and co-conspired with his brother Sean and best friend Niema Jordan. Together they've hammered their stake in the ground as the premier blog for music and entertainment in the Bay Area. A blog highlight is their “Bay Abridged” mixtape series where they showcase new music from local artists. Thus, making “The MixTweet: Volume 2” a special Bay Abridged Edition was fitting. Nick James, an Oakland native, pairs his music production and design artistry with activism and youth education. MVMT is chiefly cultivated by Rolando Brown, who leads a collective of MVMT MKRS that make valuable contributions to a variety of artists, community developers and social entrepreneurs. Together, we've combined to create a unique platform to showcase local Bay Area music talent.

The mixtape mimics the pace of our virtual movement, with a sonic funk and electronic pulse that's reminiscent of the fast, collective flutter of our Twitter message exchanges. "MixTweet Volume 2" highlights a diversity of talented Bay Area artists, with all new, exclusive music in a uniquely designed package. 100 CD's will be given away by @hp_pc at the Envy Computer Station at the conference.
