Free FLAC + WAV for everyone who has bought TH on Bleep

I think Bleep got swamped with traffic by offering this, it seemed like it was totally down for a little bit, but I'm grabbing my WAVs now.

I'll be waiting for a CD anyway and not listen to any mp3 nor flac until I'll get a CD. I want to celebrate the first proper listening with cover art and the art cards in my hand.

I feel so stupid opting to order from Boomkat instead of Bleep. They're not providing a single bit of downloads for anything.

Well as long as you have the CD you can always convert to any of the formats (except WAV24) from it.

has anyone found any secrets on the 16bit WAV compared to the MP3

I've never heard such an improvement from MP3 to FLAC before. It sounds so much better this way.

LOL at server overload, no mercy for Bleep haha. Doesn't matter much to me though, I've got the mp3 anyway and I expect the vinyl and cd to arrive next week. 2 weeks ago I placed an order at Juno.co.uk and I received it within 3 working days, so from the UK to The Netherlands shouldn't take long, also from Bleep.

Worked just fine for me, right now. Grabbed myself some flacs and I'd already downloaded the MP3s.
No problems whatsoever.

how do you get to the WAV files? I'm logged in but when i go to dashboard I only have the MP3 download option (which I've already downloaded)

Hover over the Tomorrow's Harvest option on your dashboard and the download options should appear like this:

Neve rmind, figured it out. Had to go to "Music" and not "Dashboard" to get the other options.

Are you checking under the Music tab of the dashboard? On the main bit it only showed mp3s for me but under music it gives mp3, WAV and FLAC options.

Got FLACs at last! Downloaded Tuneshell for iPhone, good little app!

Awesome! The MP3 version showed up in my Bleep account early this morning, and I was a little surprised that it didn't include the FLAC since I swore I saw it mentioned somewhere on Bleep that FLAC downloads would be a download option for those that preordered the vinyl.

Had my first listen of the album this afternoon, and it looks like my second listen will be FLAC flavored. What a happy June 9th

Going 8 bits deeper, crunchier and mo better with the 24 bit that I am freaking out hearing at the moment over a giant PA on 11!

Probably the best June 9th ever..

Am v green with envy. I have a beautiful-sounding 2,400k PA in storage, but nowhere to play it...or put it
