Pick a year, folks, any year. Most likely, you're going to want to pick a year within the last 4 or 5 decades. Because Mixologists is laying down another Challenge! We want you to pick a year and make a mix of your favorite songs from that year. They don't even need to be your favorite songs, or even songs for that matter. Okay, they do have to be songs. And preferably good ones. You get the point!

The ground rules are still the same:

• Mixes cannot exceed the standard length of a CD - 80 minutes.
• Mixes must be submitted via email: submitmix@googlegroups.com
• There is no limit on the number of mixes that can be submitted by one person.

The deadline for submission is April 8, 2006. We will begin posting mixes on the 7th, but will not accept submissions after that (hence the word "deadline").

Some tips:

• Don't pick 2005. Too soon.
• Try to blend a range of genres in your mix. Diversity is much appreciated.
• The order of the songs on your playlist is highly important. The mix should flow like wine.
• Bonus points for incorporating songs and/or artists that may be a little out of the ordinary, provided they don't ruin the flow.

So you crazy fools, bring us a musical blast from the musical past, and answer this Challenge!
