Re: Underworld Recordings
Reason is, it's 2018 and not 1998.i loved the ftp site a couple decades ago. The tracker has been a fine repository, but it's attendees have dwindled, much like this site. Get what you can, but don't expect an onslaught of traffic. I'd tried to carry the torch here for years, but, well, it's no longer 1998.

Re: Underworld Recordings
What I posted is what I have easy access to at the moment. I am 95% sure I have more on another pc, but I don't have much time to be uploading and futzing with file transgers and the like.

Edit: i do have more, but the other stuff I have is audience recordings. I am gonna dig around and maybe try and resurect a dead hard drive, but I have lost a decent amount of the stuff I sorted off the ftp server.

when i see people visiting the tracker site this last month, who have downloaded like 50GBs and have a 0.08 ratio and you pm them about helping with 3-4 shows and they don't even answer back- to me this shows that people could have helped but don't give a shit

sorry.

i will keep pming if only to break their balls , and maybe someone will take 30 seconds to answer back

cheers

95% of what I've downloaded is from laptops and machines that have died long ago, that I couldn't still seed if I wanted to, since the files themselves have changed (tags, naming, folder positions, etc).

I just don't think a torrent tracker service works for this because the demand is lower here. We're niche. A file server somewhere, like the old FTP, or a new mega account, is ideal.

I also hate torrenting because it becomes permanent the second you make the torrent available. Say you discover the name of an unreleased track, or discover a newer higher quality source, or you make new artwork for a show, you can't update that without making a new torrent. And you can't update your own local files without breaking the ability to seed (or without setting up a seedbox which many don't have the time or interest to do).
