They do sound similar, and that’s the vhs track that I think samples Geo’s Catherine Fell hoax. He’s not the one behind the tape, but it’s a hoax on hoax.

I am also just catching up after being gone a day.

So, i know what I'm linking isn't the VHS tape but it's one of those artists that drops tunes every now and then that are simply great.

I am adding it to this conversation because it is coinciding with a lot of other activity, which we all seem to be noticing.

I cannot recommend this YouTube channel highly enough. Everyone loved their first appearance with a tune called Pingus.

I like the Scald tune. The comparison track on the VHS tape has that awesome grinding, fluttering, distortion like Olson. I love it.

I'm not familiar with the Catherine Fell hoax and haven't researched it, but i find it interesting that the VHS tape could be sampling a hoax song.

This is pure speculation, but wouldn't it be nice if BOC did that... On purpose... Maybe it turns out that they're imitating the imitators. Didn't they do something like that with the "Uhhh" video thing?

"They are the imitators!"

Anyway, the good thing is that various music is being introduced and i am greedily snatching it all for my personal playlist.

That's a very good track

I compared the the Boqurant track spectrogram to the OTV1 tape version and they are not the same. They also have different overall pitches and timing.

The two labeled tracks are also played a little differently. Messed up in some spots. Probably intentionally to come off as “early versions”?
They sound good, but they are wrong.

This could possibly come to an end. Check out an artist "Mister 8" and do the maths yourself.

* Instagram profile: https://www.instagram.com/musicbycircuits/
* YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCG6NId ... PSnkJsAoTg
* Spotify profile: https://open.spotify.com/artist/3pMfcf0 ... gY1DZMLZWw
* YouTube Metadata: https://mattw.io/youtube-metadata/?url= ... ubmit=true
* YouTube playlist: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QJa-ple ... hgmPKka6IA

An example upload on his YouTube profile:

phpBB [media]

This is the 10th in a series of tracks from unknown VHS tape that contained primitive electronic music. It has been remastered and broken down as individual tracks by Mister 8. Copyright 2022, 8 Records. Mister 8 on Spotify, Pandora and Apple.

As written in his YouTube description he allegedly remastered the songs and broke them down as individual songs. Ok, that's fair, but what I don't understand is why link these songs to your own artist profile on Spotify (and other social media) if you aren't the artist who created the songs? All this would only make sense if you are in fact the person behind the tape?

* VHS 1: https://open.spotify.com/album/5f83oyM1 ... rF8WfgLtNQ
* VHS 2: https://open.spotify.com/album/6fJlveXQ ... 04e6iKBU2Q

Ok this is rather questionable behaviour. I really would like to know if he's he man behind the music or just making a profit out of it. Time for the OG to stand up?

Good work super sleuth. How did you find that?

And it's obvious Shazam might recognise it now because it's linked to Spotify. They're partners.

This makes it even more of a pity the songs will possibly be incorrectly attributed to another artist, unless of course Mister 8 is the OG. But I've listened some of his other works on Spotify and it's not likely I think.

So is this blatantly fake tape saga finally at an end? I was sick of people taking it legitimately.

We still haven’t found the original artist yet. My guess is Mister 8 only wants to earn some dollars by distributing his remastered version of the Tape by selling CDs and uploading it to his Spotify profile.

I was surprised to come to the forum today and see a thread on this video with so many pages. It's blatantly not them.

It's a fun project though! I wish whoever made it would just say it's them.

Seconded.
The creator will probably want stay anonymous though, especially if the artist is reading this mammoth 11-page thread. :lol:

I'm sure they are.

Mister 8 is not the original creator of this music, and is trying to copyright material that isn’t his.

Rarely swear but what a bastard. You should refer him a link to this topic, see what he has to say about it.

Am I the only one who is rather miffed by this.

It's such a shame that the VHS Fake doesn't have any official warp records licensed BoC tracks to which the label has copyright control over. Because then warp would be able to stop him making a profit, if he is making money from this tape.

People selling other artists work for their own gain is not on.

Deffo seconding this. Please, the original creator show yourself and stand up for hat you've done.
