I'd love a download link to these tunes. Don't have time/access to stream.

UK Horseshit Cru (dog latin), Wednesday, 28 January 2015 09:53 (nine years ago) link

ah thank you!

UK Horseshit Cru (dog latin), Wednesday, 28 January 2015 09:53 (nine years ago) link

Given that these are not commercially available tracks, I think it's okay to post them here.

Elvis was a hero to most, but groovypanda is a hero to ME

RAP GAME SHANI DAVIS (Raymond Cummings), Wednesday, 28 January 2015 13:18 (nine years ago) link

lol

He's off again. Up to 64 now

groovypanda, Wednesday, 28 January 2015 14:34 (nine years ago) link

thank you groovypanda!

WRINKLEPAWSOME (sleeve), Wednesday, 28 January 2015 15:15 (nine years ago) link

Thanks for posting these! I'm very excited about them. I think I actually enjoy his various demos and side projects better than his official albums.

jesus.

Sounds like a forks display name (forksclovetofu), Wednesday, 28 January 2015 19:42 (nine years ago) link

Only heard a few but do they all sound like '92 and earlier?

Hope he keeps going up to druqks outtakes or later.

Koogs not otm

brimstead, Wednesday, 28 January 2015 20:12 (nine years ago) link

Majority of what I've heard so far (probably less than half) have definitely sounded SAW 85-92/SAW II era.

It's kind of nuts that he's been sitting on all these tracks for so long. From that quote upthread he said he had hundreds of tracks so I wonder exactly when he's going to stop.

groovypanda, Wednesday, 28 January 2015 20:20 (nine years ago) link

Why stop?

Ned Raggett, Wednesday, 28 January 2015 20:26 (nine years ago) link

the most recent one ("26 5") sounds like "4" from Richard D James Album so I'm guessing these are progressing at least semi-chronologically

example (crüt), Wednesday, 28 January 2015 20:27 (nine years ago) link

Yeah, over at the We Are The Music Makers forum they're freaking out that some appear to be Hangable Auto Bulb outtakes

groovypanda, Wednesday, 28 January 2015 20:30 (nine years ago) link

Groovypanda is my new idol. Could you possibly assemble a second zip when he hits 100 or so?

Josh in Chicago, Wednesday, 28 January 2015 21:08 (nine years ago) link

Can do. Got all 96 so far. Also reddit has rips too

1,000 plays in 10 minutes.

Wonder how many people are just sitting there hitting F5 repeatedly?

groovypanda, Wednesday, 28 January 2015 21:14 (nine years ago) link

yeah I'm just gonna wait on groovypanda to rip all these and just plow through 'em all during a workday, this is all too much

Abstinence Hawk (frogbs), Wednesday, 28 January 2015 21:19 (nine years ago) link

January 2015: fine new Sleater-Kinney, Dawn Richards, excellent new Bjork, D'Angelo (practically 2015) and now a huge Aphex Twin data dump. Suck it, 2014.
