Why a mixtape works

  • Sequence it like a timeline: the year you met at the start, this year at the end.
  • A cassette is a keepsake that sits on a shelf. The playlist lives on their phone.
  • Write a note for each year, or one note for all of them.

Stuck on the note?

The note shows up every time they tap the tape. A few ways to start:

  • One song for every year we've had. Here's to the next side.
  • Track 1 is our first date. The last track is right now.
  • I still turn this up every time it comes on.

Questions

How many songs fit?

Up to 30. Most anniversary mixtapes land between 10 and 15, about 45 minutes, like one side of a real tape.

Can I start from a playlist we already share?

Yes. Paste a Spotify, Apple Music or YouTube playlist link at the top of the builder and we fill in the songs for you.

Do they need to sign up for anything?

No. They tap the tape or scan the QR code on the J-card and open the songs in the music app they already use.
