let's release the U2 album before U2 releases the U2 album

Kind of downbeat for a U2 record, ennit?

this basically knocks U2 outta the park tbqfh

we should do more and more of these, albeit with wisely-chosen targets

lol it is probably for the best that my droney 10-minute song isn't on here because Tombot did it way better anyway

when does Relapse come out

I'm still tripping off fucked up shark and dilapidated crocodile

got irl lols from that line, as well as basically all of nabsico's song

dude your song was pretty much straight up genius

holy shit "Cedars of Lebanon" is epic

320kbs update for audiophile dillweeds:

dan - were you able to gen a 320kbs version of "moment of surrender"?

alextc - are you interested in submitting a 320kbs version?

snoball - assume you are sending me one shortly

tom's is 270 VBR - dan, can you ask him if he wants to send a link to a 320kbs version?

nabisco - plz reconsider yr stance, that satire's deep like plush velvet seats and 192kbs makes baby jesus cry

aw thanks dan, I was about to apologize for not delivering on this concept:

Ned's spoken words definitely have to be the closing of the album with some background music or something (eheh, I've just imagined it with a funky synth track a la "thriller"'s vincent price's rap !)

though it's surprising how much ned sounds like the prince of darkness if you drop his voice a half-step

good stuff dudes

Let joy be unconfined. I am tickled I get to be part of the sendoff track.

E3: how do you want me to get the track to you? (too lazy to scan back thru the thread)

if you can upload the track to sendspace and send me the link thru ILX

I'll also send you my email address if you just wanna straight up send the file as an attachment

This is ILM creativity at its finest! I am so happy that people have come forth and expressed themselves and made this thing. This is fantastic. Why don't you guys post about this on ILM?

I guess everybody assumes the site new answers era has debalkanized ILX

this assumption appears faulty

uploading to sendspace now

got it

hey roxy where's yr blog at?

I could go reading through the animal collection thread for it but that would mean reading through the animal collection thread

http://roxymuzak.blogspot.com/

helping u

thanking u

maybe this got lost in the sauce but will you ask tom if he can send a 320kbs version, dan?

I asked, haven't heard anything back yet.

I hope that when U2 hears this they all get on a messageboard and debate for 300 posts about whether it is any good

Great melodies, but you're all wankers. And dysfunctional cretins.

nice pants retard

"Magnificient" is just that.

I would like to take this moment to thank n/a

if it were not for him we would all be posting to wdyll, suggban, and rolling ringtone threads right now instead of enjoying sweet ilx jamz

Okay I'm working my way through this comp again and Snoball's "Get On Your Boots" is heavily, heavily classic.

yeah, I like its quasi-foetus everything and the kitchen sink approach, plus it rocks

so I've been messing around with fairtilizer, looks like I can upload the individual tracks and create a streaming playlist out of them

one weird thing is it asks for a country for each track (wtf?)

I've been putting US for everybody, if this offends you please let me know what country you would like to be affiliated with

or maybe I should just make them all ireland lol

I just finished listening to the Snoball track and I was in tears. Sides aching, paralytic laughter -- I was trying to imagine U2 actually doing that at the Grammys.

can someone re-paste the tracklist w/ contributor names

01 No Line on the Horizon - Curt1s
02 Magnificent - m bison
03 Moment of Surrender - HI DERE
04 Unknown Caller - 6335
05 I'll Go Crazy If I Don't Go Crazy Tonight - AleXTC
06 Get on Your Boots - snoball
07 Stand Up Comedy - n/a
08 Fez - Being Born- TOMBOT ***
09 White as Snow - Elvis Telecom
10 Breathe - nabisco
11 Cedars of Lebanon - omar little/ned raggett/edward iii

320kbs update for audiophile dillweeds:

alextc - are you interested in submitting a 320kbs version?

snoball - assume you are sending me one shortly

tombot - our people have contacted his people

nabisco - plz reconsider yr stance, that satire's deep like plush velvet seats and srsly 192kbs makes baby jesus cry

was a joy to be part of this. lots of great tunes and LOLS on this, crutis track is a fave :)

Tombot said he may contact you later this week; if you want me to pester him, lemme know.

lol @ "stunner shades on social justice"

this is dope so far

I am liking Elvis Telecom's

is there anyway to unzip a file without winzip? the fuckers want me to pay for it.

haw i did very little work for this thing and am indebted to you and others for staying on my ass and making sure it actually got done because otherwise it would have just dwindled into the ether

i saw dan linked to this from the U2 thread but maybe we should start a new thread to officially release the album today, since the U2 album comes out tomorrow

I like that idea; we should also link it all over the place.

does this man not understand the urgency of release dates lol

I have snoball's 320kbs version now.

I've uploaded all of the tracks to fairtilizer except tom's, aleXTC's, and nabisco's. if I don't get anything in the next 5 hours or so I'll just upload the ones I have and put the link to the streaming version here.

that's weird, I thought uncompressing zip files was native to PCs & Macs now?

you could probably just download a trial version of some other software like winrar and unzip it.

also, streaming version will be up later today.

7zip 4 life

dude just right click and "extract here" instead of actually opening up the winrar software. i had the same problem but that trick lets you bypass paying for it until god knows when

thanking u, will listen in a bit, quite excited actually.
