I admit that i saw some aggression and that was incredibly weird and hostile. I also apologize if I had any part in that. But this weird thing where the speculation of a "fake" turns into a complete and thorough tearing down of someone or something they have created, it's a little much.

Perhaps, the real annoyance is a bunch of die hard fans thinking they somehow know better than anyone if something is or isn't BOC.

I'll say again, I'm new here. Maybe there are unspoken rules I'm not picking up on.

1) Maybe a dedicated thread would be a great start?
2) If people feel some reactions are too harsh: please use the report button and staff will look into it
3) Maybe some do?
4) Yes very new tbh. Some of us are here since the very start of this forum. We’ve seen tons of hoaxes by now. Things like these happen a lot and are frowned upon.

I thought the music on that video was really good, Excellent sound-a-like and some of the tunes were actually very listenable

If more thought was put into the back story and it wasn't on its own dedicated YouTube channel I probably would have bought it..

Missed opportunity and a shame the back story gave the game away.. We could have had a lot of fun with an autopsy and dissecting those tracks to disprove/prove their legitamacy

Thank you so much for that. It helps.

This place is such a cool place and i can understand now. Lots of hoaxes, dashed dreams, etc.

I'll scoot back into the background a bit and take my cues.

Knowing it's frowned upon helps it to make sense. It also explains the differing points of view.

Again, thank you.
It was really difficult to make that leap from simply reading the forum to actively taking part.
This is an intimidating fan base, and i mean that in only the most positive of ways.

Pretty sure the first track after the intro sampled the drum production on Edwin Birdsong’s “Rapper Dapper Snapper”. Daft Punk sampled his “Cola Bottle Baby” for HBFS.

Nah don't sit back and take cues, be yourself, contribute, just don't be an entitled dick (not saying your are/were, just saying to people in general)
This place has the potential to be great if people talk about other stuff more, BoC are quiet, does not mean we need to be, there are plenty of amazing music out there and I know it does get discussed here a little but it's very much in the background.
It should be a fun place with lots of personalities but at the moment it's just old fans lurking and probably groaning at the new fans biting at anything with a tape warble.
That's over simplifying in a derogatory way but who cares, we should be well aware of ourselves by now.

I spend most of my time on twoism in This Random Sound & The Playground.
It would be nice to see some General New Release regulars over there. Like Geogandhi said, more rounded and less focused on BoC all the time.

But it's whatever floats your boat folks!

Just for the record what’s the threshold in determining an old groaning lurking fan?

After a few more listens I'm less convinced. It might be that ravey 'whoo!' at 34:23 that did it. Oh well.

Just assume you are one if you have been coming here pre TH hype, just easier

So basically the threshold could be set at Record Store Day 20th of April 2013. Everyone who signed up here on or after that date isn’t an old grumpy lurking fan.

No hierarchy needed here…

Personally analyzing BoC music since 2000- didn’t find twoism until much, much later. I’m sure many are the same…

Age is just a number... unless you're a BoC fan, then it's 20 different mathematical equations with occult and/or historic significance.

Then I am definitely one of those!
Although I do really like this last "mixtape" with interesting versions of officially existing tracks.
And i do join some thinking we should know the creator as some other unknowns tracks are fucking good ones (for ex, the track right before Seeya Later). Keep it up fanbase!

Some people...
are sensitive!

I sunburn pretty easy.

Fake or not, I think it’s sounds pretty darn good. Fight me.

As a matter of fact, if this is indeed to be a BOC fake (and I’ve seen no firm refutable evidence to confirm), it might be the best fake my ears have ever heard. Feel free to link another if you disagree.
