| − | [[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.
| |
| − | | |
| − | 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 ([http://www.slsknet.org 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 that [[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".<ref>http://bocpages.org/wiki/Statements_from_Hexagon_Sun#September_2009</ref>
| |
| − | *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 [http://www.slsknet.org 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:
