Mystery CDr Found In Joshua Tree, California

Whether this is just some meaningless stunt or whatever, it's all very interesting. The backstory still makes the music creepier to listen to.

Put it all together and we realize, we've been had.

It's not a mystery at all.

 

Look, this WFMU mystery CD article was posted by user Swan Fungus.

 

When we did a google search on the song titles, we found a post on the Swan Fungus blog from 2006 (now, as mentioned, its been removed)

 

The obvious result:

"Swan Fungus" posted this attempting some self promotion. He didn't realize/forgot that on his own blog 3 years ago he posted about the music. When the ruthless internet dwellers put their collective minds together to solve this, he realized he'd been caught and thus attempted to remove the original post.

 

This was a poor poor attempt at self promotion, nothing more.

 

Nothing else to see here, move along.

Faek.

The dedication to the floppy disk case, chicken scratch message, and treasure map implied that someone with way too much time on his or her hands crafted it.

This kind of tipped me off. The packaging was pretty half-assed.

I miss the X-Files too.

wait a minute, did anyone else notice

The most frustrating part of this whole thing is that the only identifying mark was a tiny, hand-scrawled e-mail address at the bottom of the back cover for the floppy disk: andernestborgnineasdominic@gmail.com.

Track 4 is interesting, 1,2,3 and 5 are garbage. 6 is starting decently, if it doesn't delve back into the crappy voice samples.

I don't what the fuss is about.... ?

I took my dog for a walk in the woods yesterday, and I found an empty fanta bottle. Nobody knows who drank it's contents and left it in the woods... Jesus? Aliens?

Just from seeing the thread title and without even bothering to read the thread, I guessed that this would be someone trying to promote themselves through some pretend found CD.

Theres nothing mysterious about a CDr with some internet tossers music on it, this world is flooded with such artifacts

*wakes up... has a wank... puts on robe... grabs cdr of latest recordings... punts it out the front door... goes back in... has another wank!*
