How about a proper upload service. I'm not downloading anything with a dedicated executable.


Seconded. I'm too suspicious of all this.

Damn, I think uploading the hi res art for these old tunes tapes on bocpages was a bad idea, I have a feeling we're about to see a lot of fakes coming out... :oops: I just hope no one gets duped into buying them.

Fuck, sorry about the download service. I quickly clicked on it because AnonUpload won't do .mov. I'll find another.

Just click on the link after "Download:" and you'll get the file without any need for .exes.

These side B (?) samples sound very interesting. Wow.

Two more. First is "Tends Towards," second is "Close 3."

Sounds fake. Sounds way too polished.

Play 5D. That should give us a clue.

Doesn't really sound polished to me at all, could very much be legit though I wouldn't be surprised if it was a fake either. Hard to tell from the highly compressed audio.

He said that it was damaged, from being out in the sun, then all of the sudden it sounds that good? A few old tunes sounds more dated and mangled that these clips :lol: and that was released in 1996. I m just saying the style and quality of the music doesn't match the gritty tape sound of their late 80s early 90s tracks.

if its a fake, its a good one. unlike most fakes, it doesn't sound like its trying to sound like BOC.
if its real, keee-ryst what a month its been.
