Mystery of the Melodies From Mars Bill Myers A Madcap Mystery With a Message About Appearances Has Doc really contacted aliens from outer space? Why are the stores in Midvale being broken into, but nothing stolen? Is Jeremiah serious about his bright blue mohawk hairdo? The ultra-cool rock band, Spice Army, is in town, and Midvale has gone mad for their music! But it’s not just about the music—Spalding is now sporting a punk-rock haircut and a tongue ring. As if that’s not enough, the boy genius is suspected of several break-ins at stores around town. Meanwhile, Doc’s oscillating audio spectroscope—her newest invention—is picking up signals from…outer space? As Sean and Melissa race to solve their craziest mystery yet, they learn a lesson that truly is out of this world. |

it's an early version of richard d. james album, it was composed and distributed on hand dubbed cassettes by richard in 1995. he had written 'melodies from mars on the cassettes' only 2 of the tracks actually made it on richard d james album |

|
'melodies from mars' on the cassettes rather.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
listening to it now it is well suited to mindless computer games. fingerbib is on it but that is in another league entirely |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the video game demo story is a rumor. that didn't happen. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
its easy to see why it started tho' especially since he made those computer game theme remixes |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
pac man.. what else? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

mario bros. tetris |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
Those are fakey fake. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah fakes...damn nano you beat me to it |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Same goes for Speed Racer, Outside Kick Ass Violin Solo and Ghost in the Shell, which were supposedly all made by RDJ, but they aren't. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
is buy any chance "drum and bass 2000" by squarepusher fake? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
never heard of it. either it's mis-named, or a fake. |

I had to tweak the mp3 files I got of MFM but now I have a nice loud copy on CD. After listening to it for a while I wondered if he had planed to do more work on the unreleased tracks but didn't since it got leaked. I downloaded Napster just so I could experience AB5 and so on. You do anything to get the music you love even 56k downloading 320KB/s files with no resume function and being automatically disconnected every 2 hours. I wish I had just waited for a re release tho as it's just a tease having such inspirational sounds in bad rips. |

i've seen acid jazz and trip hop - aphex twin - outside kick ass violin solo next to Acid Jazz and trip hop - squarepusher - drum and bass 2000 so it probably is |
||||||||

|
|
how many melodies from mars tracks exist? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
11 including fingerbib and logon rock with demos |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
cool, thanks.. I've only got track 3 but I want to hear the rest... besides the two I've already heard on other albums ;) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
12 in all |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||

spikee oh my where have you been? There is a remastered Melodies From Mars that is really impressive quality. But whoever did the remaster used a version of mfm that has cut off tracks and stuff.. Also there is a really good rip of AB5 out there.. it's 320kbps, but look out, there is a 320 out there that is just the old files with a bitrate change.. My point is, is that there are really good copies of both in circulation. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
...and by "where have you been" i mean.. nice to see you. |
||||||||

I've been busy redirecting what I do with my life, enjoying my freedom and appreciating the great things we have access to in this life. It's nice to see you but I like to read what goes on here when I can even if I don't log in so I follow what most are up to here. Still playing your CDs btw, hope things are good for you. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I also hope that AB5 will be re-released when it's 10 years old. I really do enjoy trancing out to that sinking into deep thought. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
mfm are not fakes, they are pure rdj, no chance they are fakes unless you've heard some mislabled tracks,...,. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
"mindless computer games" eh? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I don't think anyone ever said they thought the MFM tracks were fake. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
thats thrown me into doubt about all the stuff im downloading that i don't know the source of. is the underworld vs pink floyd mix rightly attributed to aphex twin? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
fake fake faka fucka fakea |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Hahahaha. Drum and bass 2000. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
And there's more than 12 tracks... just not on any of the cassettes initially given out. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
...i'm still trying to figure out which one is the logon rock witch track... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
that one is pretty rad |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
well then wouldn't they not be considered "on" Melodies from Mars? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Even aborted releases like MFM have leftover tracks... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
You are fortunate to have been able to hear them. Could you give us punters more detail on the extra tracks? Like how many there are and what they sound like.. |
