from the metadata:

 

lineage for tracks 1-5, 7-14: DAT (original)->cassette->?->MD->WAV via optical in/optical out->CD-R/WAV (as Data)->Staples (C0182V, MBI 80UG) CD-R/WAV (as Data)->computer->FLAC via EAC V0.99 prebeta 4 with external frontend (official flac frontend) track 6: track 6 wouldnt copy over from the CD-R/WAV that was burned for me, so i wrote to the same person who made the WAVs (Hijexx). He later responded with a link to the file and his message contained the following: "That's a FLAC created from the WAV I pulled from the MD via SPDIF." Original DAT ripped to cassette->?->MiniDisc sent to Joyrex, then sent to Hijexx->WAV via optical out/optical in from MiniDisc player to computer (no fades added). watmm forum post by Hijexx: When I transferred the MD to WAV, I used optical out/optical in to retain the quality as best as possible. The maximum amplitude on average was 55% of the available dynamic range. Add the tape hiss on top of that, and you begin to understand this was not a quality bootleg recording sonically speaking. Spectral analysis reveals that serious frequencies are cut off, this most likely happened at the cassette and MiniDisc phases. There are a few sets of mp3s for this album which are known to possibly exist, all are inferior to this copy. 1. a MiniDisc rip Joyrex did from an analog out from his MiniDisc player to the analog in on his computer, this has remastered audio, cleaning up noise 2. 90 second samples sourced from the above rip posted to the watmm.com forums 3. remasters of the 90 second samples by someone online 4. mp3s possibly sourced from the same WAVs these FLACs were made from It is possible that one day the DAT will be released and a much higher quality version of this will be made available. It is also possible that the kid who bootlegged the cassette has made a copy to CD avoiding the (most likely) lossy step of MiniDisc transfer. Certain tracks from this collection have been played live by Richard D. James during DJ sets and live performances.

Since my name's wrapped up in this release somehow I thought I'd chime in. I have an MD player with optical out and a sound card with optical in. Joyrex shipped me the MD, I performed a digital copy, then I burned a CD with .WAV files and shipped that back to Joyrex. That was around June of 2008. I got a PM from CATS in August of 2008 that Joyrex had given him a copy of the CD with .WAV files but he could not copy track #6 for some reason. I gave CATS a FLAC of track #6.

The original agreement with Joyrex was that I would not distribute these tracks, only do the transfer. Short of giving CATS track #6, I've stuck to my word. I figured since CATS already had Joyrex's blessing for having the tracks it didn't matter.

Well I'm glad these are now a thing, anyway. Well done on the xfer
