Jai Paul - 2013 Album Leak (Bait Ones)

liking this very much, even at 128k

def an lp to look forward to.

6 years later, he comes back with 2 new tracks on a signed white label edition of 500:

Also, Jai's account of what happened with the leak:

Sweet to see he's bounced back. It'll be pleasant to update the 2013 leaks (but I'll miss those silly samples).

That 3d site gives me the craving for a good game of Spectre.

Glad I have an excuse to finally check out his music. Seen it buzzed about a lot, it's an interesting backstory. 

Really enjoyed all of the singles released via Jai and his brothers "Paul Institute" imprint. Some interesting electronic pop.

Very weird hearing the album leak cleaned up and in full resolution after all these years.  Still great.

anyone manage to grab one of the 12"s? hundreds on discogs

Some kind of update on his fake MySpace page:

Nice! Will have a re-listen.

Actually saw this looking for a discussion on Lossless. Love it so far, especially the Hi-Res option when connected to a DAC. Seems weird which releases are lossless though when it comes to smaller labels. All of Aphex and µ-ziq's catalog has it except for the new Analogical Force release, even though the rest of the AF releases seem to be lossless. I buy most of my stuff in WAV or physical from my favorite artists so it doesn't matter as much but I hope the feature isn't mostly limited to bigger labels or artists.

Jai is going to appear live at Coachella 2023, that’s a get for them.

The man actually showed up at Coachella, he kind of paced around the stage and sang into his mic. Baptism by fire, 10 years to the day since his album leaked.

His set can still be viewed, for now, by rewinding the timecode to -8:45:00

Thanks for sharing the videos I had no idea he was at Coachella!

So boring music

Above post is stupid and cringe - this release is absolutely unreal. Loving the stuff coming out of his and his brother's label, Paul Institute.

Didn't know drake sampled him. I don't really need a dangelo replacement but some interesting tunes in that fact video.
