looking for the oldest PRC/ORC tunes of mine

[Nase]

hey. i actually lost all my music backup in 2016, and never recovered a sizable portion of it because the sites were offline by then.

i tried with wayback machine and douli's site, and could only recover 3 lost tunes.

wondering, is there still someone from the old days that stashed it all? i wrote douli a msg just now, but he hasn't been on the site for a while.

 

i'd be so happy if more of that old stuff popped up somewhere. one can hope :D

 

take care you guys! <3

did you go by nase for those? i'll see if i can dig anything up

i will be first in line to download them for myself as well haha

it was mostly "nasenmann" or sometimes "skoshu".

the 3 tunes that still work on wayback machine are "psymon", "mushrooms on the rails", and "gathering of the ancient noses". all from PRC, and from remixcompetition.doulifee.com. there were 22 tunes from me on there.

doulifee did send me a message back! he told me he'd be looking through some old hard drive from his attic.

thanks douli! 

if you manage to dig anything else up shadow, i'd be delighted.

i'm looking through early backups of the compo thasauce page on waybackmachine atm. maybe there's more from me. might be under the name "nase" by then, but that's the newer stuff. like 2008+ :P

so far i'm looking to see what i can find on p2p networks

does a track entitled "PC Speaker's Sorrow" sound familiar? it's attributed to skoshu and does sound a bit like something you'd have made!

[Nase]

yeah that is from 8bitmusic or however it's called. i don't have that either. good call! you have it?!

[Red Shadow]

looks like about half of your tracks from this site got archived!

more like all of them so far. but alas, i already had almost all of them i think. 

doulifee's site wasn't nearly as popular as that one. and the thasauce site sadly doesn't have all the old entries from 2004+.

so i think i can only hope for douli's old hard drive, or any other freak that mightve made a backup of those 20 year old tunes :D

 

edit

dammit bitcr12 and splunka were mixes i actually dont have and they are 404. FUCK MY LUCK
