some old, long-thought-lost releases
🕑 Added 2020-07-13 06:42:48 +0000 UTCsome time back i mentioned finding some old CDr releases i was trying to recover. the first one is nothing terribly special, but probably good to have:
renard - SET.ME.FREE (2007)
MP3: https://www.mediafire.com/file/isak3iget713all/renard_-_SET.ME.FREE_%5BMP3%5D.zip/file
FLAC: https://www.mediafire.com/file/6enqnc6sam1373u/renard_-_SET.ME.FREE_%5BFLAC%5D.zip/file
here's the more interesting one, though. this the earliest existing full album of mine, predating even the Renard alias, created in the midst of peak weebery (the babelfish japanese, holy shit! you think google translate sucks? try babelfish circa 2005!). a lot of these tracks have survived, and not in much higher quality than this. this is an early CafePress CDr, and if you could believe it, you had to upload in 192kbps MP3 at the time. this was still a lot for my dialup connection at the time (about 2kb/s). there was a lot of disc rot going on with this one, and you can hear read errors at the tail end of the last track in particular, care of earlier CDr media. crazy to think this was 15 years - nearly half my life - ago. i would've been 15-16 when i produced most of these. of note, this is the first "official" appearance of Quiet Man, which was already in its second revision. of course, the "NEKO" name would somehow live on as a fish with a lot of tails, but only for one hard trance track for the most part. i guess their natural evolution was Mayhem? fucked up.
NEKO - THE PRECURSOR (2005)
MP3: https://www.mediafire.com/file/jntoh04hb1g5chl/NEKO_-_THE_PRECURSOR_%5BMP3%5D.zip/file

For Set me Free we've got the vocals for it so we've got a good amount of everything. For Neko I am so happy you've found them! : D
