Melodies from mars: Getting it right

I have a full release at a pretty good quality (better than
the rest of the uploads I've found). If you want, I can
upload it on rapidshare or something once I'm done
downloading something else on emule.
Either way, just listened to the mp3 and you're missing the
real 8th track which is Logon Rock Witch demo version.
Afterwards the playlist continues.

Of course, but it will take some time to finish the current
downloads. Add me on msn so I won't forget:

Using the < and > tags killed the words in the previous
post.

Aight. Most probably will upload it tomorrow. Do you want
the full album or just the track you're missing? If it's
only one track, I can upload it right now.

Is the lossless version doing the rounds actually lossless,
or just the work of some wanker who tried to make it LOOK
like it's from a lossless source? I don't have any of the
old mp3's to compare it with...

It's fake. As the source is a casette, a lossless copy
wouldn't even improve the quality.

Dagibit: since this release is one mb too big for
rapidshare, I'll up it on my webspace. Give me your email so
I can send you the link. Not going to post the link here so
the server won't get hammered.

There is a lossless version that actually is lossless,
whether that's what you have is another matter. It's as
good/poor quality as an original tape, and doesn't have the
added poo-ness of being compressed.

Not sure why people assume that an mp3 rip of a cassette
should lose less information than an mp3 rip of a cd. If
anything an mp3 of a cassette is worse since tape hiss via
some mp3 codecs sounds like sloppy skitters.

The quality itself is unchanged though, mainly because the
frequency cuts up somewhere in 16k in all versions.

And all of them have the same grain too, except some that
have unusual cuts and clicks.

There was never a 13th track. Check discogs for official
tracklist.

As for the gpages site:
1. It's "Logon Rock Witch".
2. You might also try linking to discogs page.
3. Add a "thanks to" somewhere on the page for those who
uploaded the tracks/higher quality ones (aka me for now).
