So... the Radiohead leak
If you didn't already know about it, 18 discs of sessions for 'Ok Computer' leaked earlier this week.

But, each disc is one 192kbps mp3 file - which makes it all a bit of a daunting listen.

I don't really follow Radiohead websites / message boards any more, but I was wondering if anyone has already managed to split up the discs into individual tracks?

And, if not - can anyone remind me what the name of the program is called that can cut mp3's without transcoding them?
(I think it's what was used to split the UW internet radio broadcasts?)

This leak is amazing!
I use Medieval CUE Splitter
I took a cue file from another release and deleted what was it in to create a blank template and I write/edit cue files in Notepad.

Yup, that'll do it. I'm on a Mac, though, and I use Rogue Amoeba's Fission.

Fission! That was the app I was thinking about, but couldn't remember the name.
(I also use a Mac.)

This leak is incredible, I'm also surprised by how there seems to be 'complete' songs mixed in with the demo's, excerpts, & live performances and how it jumps back and forth. It feels a bit 'curated' in its randomness.

Like, I would've imagined the leak would be more organized like the Achtung Baby Outtakes, where you have a full disc of alternate takes / overdubs / excerpts of just "Salome" - or similar songs were arranged to make comparisons.

Oh! Looks like Radiohead decided to release the material themselves on bandcamp

https://radiohead.bandcamp.com/

I didn't realize that the source of the original leak was that someone had hacked Thom's computer, and tried to ransom the material!

...it's nice to have the audio as lossless files now, but it is a bit annoying that they're not separated into tracks
