can anybody tell if these were 'mastered' or not?

 

I've been wondering about this too. Most of the tracks have a very well rounded and full sound to them. On the other hand, the loudness levels are all over the place from track to track.

 

 

Yeah, I agree... volume is all over the place. As a whole, I don't think they've been mastered... yet.

But some tracks do sound full & beefy. (Dark Girl/Boy for example) ... so maybe some of them in the past

where grouped for bonus or ep track mastering, but never used.

But I'm clearly no mastering expert so I may be totally wrong

Edit: even tho track sound very homogenic so I bet that in that, some kind of mastering was needed

 

I'm not a mastering expert either, but I just listened to Come to Daddy (mummy mix) and a few tracks from HAB on my sound system back to back with the Metal Beat track and the Baby track from the soundcloud dump, the official releases have a lighter less beefy mastering touch done to them, at least on these 2 tracks. I like the way this Metal Beat one sounds especially, reminds me of the way Minipops was mastered. This could be all in my imagination but I'm leaning towards the idea RDJ is either mastering (some of) these himself or had someone do it.

 

edit: the theory im proposing, that if some of these are already mastered (maybe the ones with track #s) its good evidence at least some of these tracks will get an official physical/digital release

 

 

indeed!

for those that couldn't rip (or have work to do, etc).. here's a zip of all 98 tracks so far (96 from the main soundcloud account, and two from the "old" account before the name change)

 

https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B1566ny72nSKN21vV3ZhYWtxM28&authuser=0

 

all the track names are accurate straight from soundcloud, some have images, some dont.

if anyone wants to go in there and add images, or notes or hashtags based on each track, go for it

 

ripped throughout the past two days using the SCD batch download software
