Random 35 Tracks 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 commercial releases. No liner notes or tape scan have ever surfaced.

Contents
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.
- For a long time, it was assumed that this tape was the missing Old Tunes Vol. 1 (since A Few Old Tunes and Old Tunes Vol. 2 were already known), although this was never confirmed. This was finally 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.
- MDG has said that it is not known who compiled the tracks, calling it "a mystery, just a mixture". [1]
- Zoetrope, a user on radiomute.com, referred to not only the commonly known A few Old Tunes and Old Tunes vol. 2, but also a third volume, which he appeared to refer to this leaked release as. Some also seem to believe that this is a 'Closes vol. 2'.
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
- 3 Mar 2004 - Zoetrope's Post
Availability
- A rip of this tape is available at rareboc.ax.lt
Samples/Lyrics
Side A: Blueberry is believed to be the name of the short Vignette at the end of "Sixtyten" on Music has the Right to Children. Track 8 contains a sample from "[[June 9th]"] except much faster.
Side B: It's too Orangey is the name of the vignette at the end of "Triangles and Rhombuses" also on Music has the Right to Children. Track 10 on side b contains some samples from "The Smallest Weird Number" in reverse. Track 5 contains a sample from the NES/Arcade classic, Donkey Kong. Track 6 on side a contains the sample from "Seven Forty Seven", but slightly slower.
