Love this mix. Super legit, and all vinyl-sourced

i ought to clarify that this is mostly but not entirely true -
there's like a six second sample i got from a dvd. but no time travel. no dropping a li'l clip of nine inch nails and radiohead just to see if anyone's watching, etc. It didn't seem entirely worth the effort to get an ancient vhs, since this is physically being done in 2022 anyway oh well lol. so no time travellers.

I love how the KLF in the 90s referenced this

I don't understand what this is. Did you recreate The JAMs' records from original sources?
Ok_Hat9704 t1_ixdjfnh wrote
it's a zip file containing flac audio files. you'd need a way to unpack a zip (admittedly easier on a computer), then a media player that can handle FLAC (most of them nowadays). you can't preview it, because it's in an archive.
edit: actually i may as well post a link to a non-zipped folder as well. just so people can preview and browse.

a fan compilation. i took recordings of the original vinyl records that folks have made & are floating around on P2P file share programs (ie. soulseek), used a compressor to get them all to match each other, then edited them into my own sequence, with careful attention paid to spacing and track seperation, so that the whole thing flows from track-to-track as if it had have been professionally mastered.

if you mean did i use 'the 45 edits' to recreate 'wtf'sgo', no. that would be a fun future project, b/c i could make something in 24/48, but for this CD quality collection the best option available was the 1992 norwegian CD bootleg. you can tell by the occasional point of surface noise that it was taken from one of the original vinyl copies (a good number were actually sold in '87 before the swedish cornfield incident, they're out there aha just people seem to guard them for some reason).

in 1992 the world was a cornfield in sweden.

Just a reference to The Illuminati Trilogy, and The Principia Discordia.

thanks, to tell you the truth, i never read the fine manual.

ps, how did the klf reference this in the 90s ?

They had a song about the justified ancients of mu, sang with Tammy Wynette.

Well, they were a cool weird hip-hop group in 1992. They had a couple hits, 3am eternal and justified&ancient. Wasn't until I read P.D. and Illuminati that I knew what they were singing about. The books posited a secret war and one of the power moves by the illuminati was getting Kick out the Jams on the radio in the 70s to fuck with the justified ancients of mu.

I just happened to have the weirdest of connections. The books are fun, the KLF music was cool & interesting, and the links between all of it very... Fascinating.

all vinyl sources. there's nothing in this that couldn't have physically existed by the end of 1988 :) except maybe our telephones are dumber.
