I am going to start putting all of my Chris Fortier promos that are on cassette into an .mp3 format. There has been talk of this before in a thread (can't remember where) here and a few individuals expressed interest in these. These are from my personal collection and 99% of these were given to me by Chris back in the day. I am no wiz at digitizing tapes, so please take them for what they are and enjoy them as I have for the last 10+ years! Some of them are in excellent condition others won't be (age). I will be adding these mixes to this thread as I do them, so be patient. Enjoy 8)

Yes Chunky, I have one JVM tape, Mixworks and it's not the same Mixworks tape that was posted on the board. I was going to do that one also, as well as a Monk tape I have.
