this is not a new idea, but for those who don't know, this is how it works:

go to: http://www.yousendit.com/

if you have an album/song you want everyone to hear, upload it and post the link.

if you want an album/song, request it. if someone here has that album/song, upload it.

sharing is fun. my first contribution is only a song for now. i'll up an album later.

future bible heroes (members of the magnetic fields) - don't you want me (human league cover)

The Art of Subconscious Illusion
or filefront.com.

but i would recommend renaming the file and extention to a different name, so that yousendit.com doesn't ban your account. example: halloween pictures.rar

then just tell us what the extention is.

larz i have united except its missing song 11 which is a too young remix. all songs are 128kbs except for some reason one is 192 and one is 160. I dont even remember who i got this from but if this will work for you i can get it up.

andyp: what kind of quality do you want? i have the shepherd's dog in 128kbps.

chiken: thanks, but that doesn't work for me. my first priority is getting albums that are consistent in quality, then number two is getting albums that are at least 192kbps in quality. i think i have the same copy of united as you, and that's why i'm trying to get a better version (consistency, quality). thanks, though.

I think one other thing that helps the life of the download availability is if you don't straight up link from ttf, like do a blockquote, and just copy/paste the links.

http://s39.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=2LEQKQTLTJMQ43OGF7737CO4UI



but yeah this animal collective album linked from that mewzique site is nice!

hey andyp what albums have you got already?

I think my only entire album is the untitled one: ()

I have Von, and Ný Batterí, but I think I'm missing song 12 on Von, and I don't even know if Ný Batterí is a full album.

oh, and if anyone wants to upload any jazz or classical they have, I'd love it. or you could just post what you've got to offer.

I had a good idea for a blog-type interface thing for ysi sharing. if only I could remember it...

haha nah it's not annoying, I wouldn't want inconsistent stuff either. and it's nice of you to be honest so no one uploads stuff that ends up being useless to you!

I'd check my copy of Ma Fleur but I'm not at home and it's on my server. any idea what was inconsistent about it? and yeah, you did get it from me.

First stop for me is Chopin (Romantic) then Bach (Baroque). As a piano player both have kickass, pretty accessible music. Not a big fan of orchestra pieces.

yeah I'm big into piano, so that's always good.

how 'bout some Chopin, Chiken?

nice alliteration.

I really need to remember what my blog/ysi idea was. it was something that involved forcing or heavily encouraging people to contribute somehow in order to download, but I forget how. or some way to keep rapidshare or sendspace or ysi links from expiring. arghhhh.

http://www.clanbbw.com/publicimg/data/images/ma_fleur.png

a. encoder isn't consistent (both Xing and LAME)
b. VBR qualities vary (track 5)

plus, the overall vbr quality is below par (it's "average," it should have a target bit rate of close to 192kbps).

I have loads of classical lying about. I'll see about ripping them and seeing what people want (or vice versa).

Off the top of my head, two that people may be interested in are Gabriela Montero playing Chopin and Rachmoninov, as well as an improv album around pieces by Bach.

interesting. I saw another similar thing to that and it was this huge tutorial about how to release and renew your IP address from the Windows command line. when I initially saw the title I was like "oh, awesome!" then I started reading and was like "oh...so just release and renew your IP...I could have thought of that."
