Tim Humphrey's West Coast Chill Out Retrospect

I had recently joined discogs in 2001 and was very active in the forums. If you search Floating Point and TIM you will see a few threads about the mix back then in the electronic music forum, chat forum and mixes forum. Being a big fan of physical music I wanted people to receive an actual cdr of the mix so I made roughly 60 or 70 of them at the recording studio I was working at. I sent them all kinds of places around the world to users here on Discogs. With various shipping prices of different countries I just put a blanket cost of $4.50 for everyone so I knew it would be covered with that amount. I used the work stamp machine for them all.
The office secretary and manager rolled their eyes when they saw what I did. Must have been about $400 in charges on that machine by me that month. They weren't mad though. All the employees used that machine for their own packages and letters. Anyways, I think people really appreciated getting an actual cd. When you get an actual cd or a physical copy, you want to play it more than if it's a file. I got a lot of feedback from people who listening to it and that re-enforced my opinion about physical products over digital. And it encouraged me that if I ever had a label it would be for physical media.
