He's already (fully?) uploaded SAW 1.5, AB6 & SOSW 2 as well as tracks from the joyrex tape so he may avoid mastering / releasing these individual tunes outwith their intended album format.

Has he? What was AB6 track 1? And was the last track actually the last track?

 

I have nothing labelled Polygon Window from this dump - never mind SOSW2.

 

Any indication as to what is what would be great.

 

Cheers.

I did write '(fully?)' so not too much of a stretch of the imagination to consider the albums mentioned are either not complete or the so - called missing tracks are uploaded but not identified in exactly the same way RDJ himself has stated SOSW 2 has already been uploaded, in the most part. He said he'll look out the other tracks. If you need further clarification on Polygon Windows tracks ask him and hope for a reply.

As it happens I see SAW 1.5 is now listed as having 15 tracks but my Android device still only shows 11 (cache clear not helping) so any of these playlists/albums can change.

[tunnocks]

guh, roadblock. so i've started off by making a scraper and a page that grabs all the track info + displays it in a way that we can sort by plays/comments/likes/etc. (i figured that would at least start to give some sort of indicator of most popular tracks that i can extrapolate from to assist with voting)

 

many of the earlier tracks seem to have this stuff turned off though - look on soundcloud (as in the website) for tracks like 'red calx', both 'how to science', 'japan', etc. no stats showing under the tracks at all.

 

i wonder whether rdj turned this off or it's soundcloud being stupid? :/

 

edit: 82/227 tracks have no info at all

 

 

I think all the first batch lost the stats/info for a while. Can anyone with uploads on Soundcloud shed any light on how the stats can be managed? Can the user toggle them on and off from their profile?

i.e. this simple sortable table shows all tracks as of 60 seconds ago:

 

http://catstick.com/soundcloud/afx/

 

unless rdj can flick back on these stats, using any sort of aggregate of stats over time is not going to work :(

 

edit: tried it against mikep's soundcloud given ~200 tracks too, works fine, so reckon it's something rdj has flicked on a per-track basis?: http://catstick.com/soundcloud/mikep/

The stats thing is odd, im fairly sure the android app string reports up to date stats on all the old songs. Perhaps it could shed some light.

[xfxf]

just checked my android phone - same issue. (i'm probably hitting the same API the android app is anyway)

i just messaged him on soundcloud because... why the hell not

[Guest Atom Dowry Firth]

The comments and likes were hidden on a bunch of tracks yeah, forgot about that. It's a feature of pro accounts (they're all still there just only visible to him). People can still 'like' the tracks even though the total number of likes isn't visible, just need to get him to make the stats public so your page can get the infos

CHEETAHT7 Teac is very Analord 2, love it so much

what if he now spends 2 hours flipping on some statistics on tracks that he intended to use uploading drukqs 0.9 instead but now he wont

hahahah

 

i'll be very disappointed with myself if that happens

[xfxf]

oh god

 

so i just uploaded a track to my own SC to see what it looks like from that end... and noticed this:

 

 

"Quiet mode" - "Hide stats".

 

Which according to the right you need a Pro account to unlock......

on a totally unrelated note, you should definitely check out Burial's stuff Rich

 

user18081971 :

@user64583945206: who is burial?

 

 

[may be rude]

plenty of solid material in the last 50. string slush is awesome, that's a preset beat he accidentally triggered toward the end in that one, right? it kind of fits perfectly in a funny way, i wonder if he did it on purpose.

Saw that, I like how someone points out he dropped Burial @ ATP in 2007, he he. He's replied to a few other questions.

There are too much good tracks in this dump I already semi-forgot about (only because of sheer quantity), only to stumble upon them by accident and find out how good it is. Like this one just now:

Oh shit, the SOSW 2 playlist
