"Random 35 track tape" (real name unknown) refers to a collection of 35 tracks leaked on P2P networks around September 2004. Unlike other "Old Tunes" tapes, the tracks are completely unlabeled; however, a few match known tracks from other sources, including one commercial released track. No liner notes or tape scan have ever surfaced.
Despite its uncertain provenance, the tape is generally believed to be authentic.
Background
- Random 35 Tracks Tape seems to be sourced from a cassette tape containing a (presumably) hand-selected set of pre-BoC Maxima tracks. The leaking of these tracks to P2P networks (Soulseek, originally) provided much drama on WATMM.
- All files are encoded as 320kbps MP3.
- Although never confirmed, it was originally assumed that this tape was Old Tunes Vol 1 (since Old Tunes Vol. 2 was already known). However, this was proven false when, on 08 Aug 2009, Twoism forum member dealer posted new photos of a cassette and liner notes showing the A Few Old Tunes and Old Tunes Vol. 1 were, in fact, the same release.
Discovery
These tracks appear to have first surfaced on SoulSeek under various names, such as "random 35 tracks tape (rarities and the best of - not old tunes v1 or v2)" and "A Few Older Tunes Disc 1/Disc 2", reflecting the uncertainty of the collection's provenance. Early sightings include:
- 9 Sep 2004 - LiveJournal post
- 3 Oct 2004 - xltronic messageboard topic
- 8 Oct 2004 - idm-l post
