There is an Indie Tape being auctioned off on Ebay. It'll be up for another 2 days. I can't believe someone would actually sell theirs!

Indie Tape on EBAY
i sold mine on ebay. when i moved out of my apartment i was prepared to shed my packratish ways. i had tons of stuff i knew other people would get more enjoyment from than i have. i had�a sealed indie cassette i won at frucon...IV? V? can't remember. anyway, someone i knew won it - i wasnt interested in money, just more of putting it where it belonged. because it lived in a cabinet for all these years and i knew it would just move from place to place and be put in another box or cabinet.
what i'd like to see is their other early tape on ebay. the one with darlington darling, gulf war song (i think).. and... some other song. i forget what they call it.
I asked Jian about that demo tape�one year at FRFF, and�he told me that there isn't really any name for�it other than just 'a demo tape'.� It's got Gulf War Song, Darlington Darling, and Green Eggs and Ham.� Each song is a little bit different than their more commonly heard�versions, most noticably Gulf War Song.� If I recall correctly, they decided to attack the song's key from a similar-yet-different angle.� I definately enjoy this demo-tape for what it's worth.� I recall a certain Mister R (at one point) mentioning the idea of posting these in a torrent via bargainville.org.� While at the time he was very curious as to where I got a copy, I doubt Jian would make a big stink about it these days. speaking of which... is the bargainville tracker still up? cause for the past like month or more i haven't been able to access it. and what do you you mean by... "they decided to attack the song's key from a similar-yet-different angle" to be honest, i'm not sure about the bargainville tracker, as I haven't used/thought about it in months.� regarding Gulf War Song, I just mean that they sing it a little bit differently without changing anything remotely vital to the song's composition, like the key in which it is sung.� mini-variation, basically.� also, this version of green eggs and ham is fairly unique, sounding like a genuine cross between Fruvous and what Fruvous apparently felt rap should sound like back in the early 90's.� darlington darling is more or less the same, with the exception of broken glass being used as a rhythmic device throughout the song.
sounds exciting. i wish that idea to torrent it�had pulled through.

My Indie Tape is no such thing.� It's an Indie MP3 Folder. Oh, great...� Now Jian is probably hunting me down. I owned a cassette, which was destroyed by a crappy tape player.� Jerky tape player!
This is why people hate tape decks these days. It's easier to fix a scratched CD than� munched and tangled audio cassette tape.
speaking of fixing a scratched CD, how does one go about that exactly? I've been told that you can take toothpaste and spread on a thin even layer, let it dry, and wipe off the excess, but I haven't ever tried it, so I don't know if it works.Any ideas?
Try to rip it with EAC preferably in a good cd drive/burner with good reading capabilities (e. g. Plextor, Teac).
Or try something like Game Doctor (which actually works better for audio CDs than for data CDs). In both cases burn a copy and say good-bye to the original disc. You must first create an account to post.
