Has anyone here heard the fake tracks for Helios Sound and Treeline?

The fake Helios Sound I have (about 31 seconds long) is absolutely creepy. It's this insanely warbly tune that sounds like it was either done on a really tweaked organ or perhaps a heavily tweaked sound of a bell or something.

Then there's Treeline (1 minute 12 seconds long) Time and time again I come back to this one thinking that it might be BOC. The tune is SO CONVINCING! It sounds like the same instrument that was in the debatable Focus On The Spiral fake (The same one that you guys were talking about a couple months ago in the forums) Anyway, some other noticeable characteristics are the tape hiss and the weird click sound at the end of the track that sounds like something either stopped or was shut off, but was played through reverb.

If anybody has heard these tracks and has anymore infor about them, please spill your guts here.

treeline = davefrom2001. after he posted one of his tunes someone renamed it and starting spreading it around soulseek.

my favorite fake is from the geogaddi era. I'll upload that soon.
