[FAKE] I found these at Goodwill. Can someone verify/deny?

Ripping audio off of tapes does not give it properties, you literally just renamed the files off of the random 35 tracks tape and threw in some others that were confirmed fakes months ago. Weak attempt at a fake and a scumbag move.

My iMac CMOS died long ago. But I doubt that holds any relevance, I update the day every time I turn on the computer.

If you're on OSX then why do a few of these files include comment metadata about "audio-transcoder.com", which seemingly is exclusively a Windows software? Certainly not something your iTunes could "fuck up".

The last 4 tracks on the tape sound really convincing to me. If fake, they're good and i'll be listening to them a lot.

@Breen.
You're right, properties are created when imported to a computer. However, due to the fact that they were imported directly to iTunes, then automatched to songs on R35TT that quite possibly could've been from CV1, does change properties. Also, I'm a damn obsessive fan of BoC, and I wouldn't let the community down like this. If I didn't have something I thought worth sharing, I wouldn't even bother. So, fuck you.

Would you like a photograph of my desktop?

____________________________________ is at least Magic Timeline ( Some of the other ones sound a little like the Reforestation stuff, but I have not taken a very deep look at them.

I think the only possibility here is that Neuromute completely mixed up the files on his computer, but it's getting kinda thin. Still curious as to what those samples posted are if not legit Boards.

Actually these are pretty good transfers, good job! And F all the haters who think you're trolling or think its a "scumbag move".

Why? What would I do with that? Rather tell what kind of a fucked up ripping procedure did these files go through, or just do it properly once and for all. The only sense in the inconsistencies between the files' metadata, modified dates, bit rates and etc. is that they were hand picked from several different fake rips floating around, not ripped just now from the same cassette. I repeat, proper rip or this thread might as well be over.

ROFL at anyone who didn't look at this troll's posting history and call immediate shenanigans on the entire venture. People want to believe, but just a little too much.

Just because that software is only for Windows.

I don't know how to rip it without going through iTunes, so the literal best I can do other than this is just to record a pictureless video with audio.

So your saying that you get some with a perfect 320 kbs quality modern sounding rip with no fuzz off of the tap, then have the rest 128 kbs? Impossible. iTunes does not match audio wavelengths in songs when importing. Sorry bud I'm not an idiot, your lying.

Bummer, too bad it's fake. Couldn't believe already this would be the real deal

yeah sorry to say, this is fake guys

Scotronica · Post by **Scotronica** » Wed Jun 26, 2013 5:36 pm

4th track from the end - length 4.57 is f*cking ace.

If this is legit you should certainly take your time to re-rip these properly

Ah yeah... I had not heard these before. Wow.

Well, whoever did them has got excellent melodic sensibilities!

NEUROMUTE · Post by **NEUROMUTE** » Wed Jun 26, 2013 5:37 pm

Sorry for all the confusion and mess this tape's created. As I've said before, take it up with whoever made this tape. I gave samples, photographs, and rips. However, if it's not legit, I'm sorry for misleading anyone, even though I've stated numerous times that it's likely not legit. Thanks though, guys. I'm still pretty happy about getting these tapes, and some high quality artwork with handwriting that look just like Michael's. In any case, I got some cool thrift shop shit.
