[Album] Gamingforce Music Exposure Club™ Discussion

I for one would like to still hear the Jazz stuff :3

Also, yeah, uploaded Talib Kweli if you didn't already notice.
Also in my 'gurnl. Look!

FELIPE NO

I grabbed Eardrum back when it was released, but good stuff nevertheless.

Here's Does. I would steer clear of the vocal tracks, unless you can tolerate the vocals, which are very rough compared to the newer stuff.

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

For electro fans who somehow haven't heard (or don't have) Ladytron's sexcellent album, Light&Magic.

Ch-ch-check it out.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Why don't you just copy and paste your journal entries into the exposure thread, Guru? A few more people would see them then.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

This is the first I've heard of Minus the Bear. I never really heard much math rock, but I dig the stop-start stuff. I'm just not too fond of the singer's vocals. A few more listens might help it sink in.

I went back and got those Nick Drake albums, too, Knk. I had heard Pink Moon before, but I really liked a lot of songs on all three albums, so thanks for upping those. (And of course thanks to Moon for archiving.) I'll have to pick them up the next time I get some cash.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

If you're going to buy the records, the best way is probably a the Fruit Tree boxset, which has all three albums plus an outtakes record and a pretty interesting booklet and can be found secondhand for about $35, which is almost cheaper than buying the three albums by themselves.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

So the remasters aren't anything to get excited over, then? I see some news for Fruit Tree being rereleased as a limited edition, but none of the prices I've seen are under $50.

(If you meant vinyl, I don't have a record player. )

I was speaking idiomatically.

I did.

If you're stuck with CDs the remasters probably are the way to go then.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

I just tried to access Moon's website, and it seems to be down. Have we been downloading a bit too much?

FELIPE NO

He had something like a terabyte of bandwidth so I doubt we overused it. Maybe they finally wised up that it was a huge orgy of illegal goodness? I hope not...

That would just suck.

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

That it would. Hopefully he can get back to us on this reasonably quickly. I'm kinda anxious to find out what the deal is.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

I put up some hip-hop and indie/acoustic stuff. For the hip-hop fans, the kind of rap I'm into is stuff like MF Doom, The Roots, and Talb Kweli.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

After some pouring of access logs, I found out what happened. Sometime on the 16th, 274 unique users were downloading contents from my albums folder. At the same time. This resulted in the use of 1.1 TERABYTES of bandwidth within a period of about 5 hours.

Needless to say, my webhost suspended the account until I could get this shit under control. It turns out nearly all the connections were by direct request from my albums folder, which means someone shared the link with a high visitor site and the visitors proceeded to rape my server with orgasmic fury.

The solution: turn off indexing in my albums folder. All the links should still work; you just need to know the link to it. Kinda defeats the purpose of hosting them in one place if no one knows exactly what's there, but if y'all have a better suggestion, I'm open to it.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

As long as you know what you want, it's not exactly rocket science to figure out how to access it. Then we just have to keep the MEC thread itself indexed.

Or maybe it is rocket science. XD I can't figure out some of the links for the new stuff. If they're all in the same format, it should be easy. =)

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

I just realized after spending all that time uploading that sendspace has a per-day limit on downloading. =/

Well, if I may make a recommendation, get Bonobo first, then come back for D&K.

I was speaking idiomatically.

I decided to trun indexing back on for the albums folder, and all MEC contributions are now uploaded. Feel free to replace your dead links and download away!

Just no sharing the link to the folder this time with other sites <__<.

It has an per IP daily download limit. If you've got a dynamic IP, just disconnect and download all you want...

FELIPE NO

I have a problem: Most of the sendspace albums I'm interested in aren't there anymore. Help.

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

Name the ones you want and links will magically appear!

I'm getting a 404 on that link. But I also had another idea: what if accessing that link was tied to your GFF account? That way, only registered members could access it. It would help keep other people from going download crazy (who weren't on the site, at least).

Also, I've uploaded miaou albums before, but I'm pretty sure you have others. If you do, can you upload them? I'd like to hear them.

Most amazing jew boots

Ah, could I get the Portugal. The Man. uploaded again? I'm a quiet non-contributer to this whole thing, I know, so if it's any trouble don't worry about it.

Hey guys, just a reminder that discussion and requests go in this thread, not the actual thread in My Stuff. Posts have been moved to their rightful resting place and balance has been restored. Peace, love and aural grease~

I turned off indexing again because I was reported to the Man .___. How would I tie the link to my GFF account, because that would solve the Man problem?

But here are the Miaou albums I have:
Happiness
Make These Things Right
Painted EP

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

I'd just like to mention how wonderful A Fine Frenzy are, thanks for uploading it! I personally love the songs "Almost Lover" and "Ashes and Wine". What an enchanting voice she has, it's one of those albums that i've come across at the right time - seems to fit my new surroundings perfectly.
