The "bands you can download off me" thread *soulseek only*
 

gaslight kinda suggested this, so I'm gonna start it.

I use Soulseek. My name on soulseek is The Big Sleep. I have around 1800 files shared from numerous bands, but these are the bands that I have an extensive range of songs/albums which you can d/l from me if you are nice.

Bands that I specialise in:

Hot Snakes
mclusky
Roky Erickson
Murder City Devils
Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds
Blood Brothers
Fiery Furnaces
The Unicorns
These Arms Are Snakes

I have around 7-8 Queens of The Stone Age songs which you can get - they are rarities, covers, b-sides and live versions. (I also have around 25 live videos you can get)

Enjoy your stay at Casa de Tangy.

Nice.

If anybody wants some stuff from Soulseek from me, feel free - but you have to ask me first. Not because of politeness or anything, because I need to upload the d[size=2]a[/size]mn thing before you can download it!!!

My Soulseek is........

Iai.

Original, huh.

I've tried to browse your list before, but it won't let me :confused:

It won't let me browse yours. I can't browse Zappa's either. Sometimes I can browse Tangy's, sometimes I can't. I can't remember why but it says somewhere on the slsk website.

I've got:

Pinback
The Weakerthans
Some rare stuff by Against Me!, including an awesome live, acoutic set from way back.
American Football
Bright Eyes
Lightning Bolt
The Microphones/Mt. Eerie
Goodbye, Blue Monday

Converge - You Fail Me
Brand New - Your Favorite Weapon
most of Animal Collective - Sung Tongs
The Fall of Troy - Self Titled

and some other stuff, just add me(masahista).

[QUOTE=Iai]Heaps of Bloc Party? You're my new best friend.[/QUOTE]

By "heaps" I mean 3 songs. I'm gonna get the EP any day now.

:lol: Fair enough. I should really check if they have an album out here yet.

My Soulseek screen name is "GreetDeath678" (Without the parenthesis).

I have a lot of bands like Alice In Chains, Opeth, Tool, Dream Theater, stuff like that...also, a lot of Post-rock stuff (EITS, GY!BE, Sigur Ros) I also have many live shows, mostly EITS and GY!BE shows.

My soulseek is Ak472. Check me out!

I'm gonna make a request for a band that I can't find anywhere. if anyone here has any Mint Chicks songs can you please please send me some. I am going to buy their EP when I can find it but I just wanna have something to listen to in he mean time.

Also, I just put more CDs in my folder. I got more White Stripes, Hives, Missy Higgins, Antiskeptic, Gyroscope to name a few.

ok... my username is GougeAway

My upload speed isn't great. I usually have it turned way down on soulseek too, because um... I'm greedy. But if you let me know that you're from MX (I think you can send messages on soulseek), I'll turn it up faster. But even then it won't get much better than maybe 10kbps. My upload speed just sucks for some reason.

Anyway, I don't have any full albums on here, but I've got a heap of MP3s from a heap of good artists. If I talk about somebody on here, then I probably have some of their best songs on there.

My specialties include:

Faith No More
The Pixies
The Cure
The Smiths
Jane's Addiction
Jeff Buckley
Nick Cave
Radiohead
Mike Patton related stuff

My upload speed sucks too. Someone just downloaded an Elliott Smith album off me :)

I just keep them in their own folder with a zip file as well.

[QUOTE=ATDIrock]By "heaps" I mean 3 songs. I'm gonna get the EP any day now.[/QUOTE]

When is their LP actually due out? Surely it can't be long???

[QUOTE=ZEROthirtythree]How do you upload albums onto soulseek?[/QUOTE]

My shared drive is seperated into folders by artist, then by album within said artist folders.

[QUOTE=Zappa]My shared drive is seperated into folders by artist, then by album within said artist folders.[/QUOTE]

Yea I understand that. But can I take an album I already bought at the store, upload it onto my computer, and share it over soulseek?

[QUOTE=ZEROthirtythree]Yea I understand that. But can I take an album I already bought at the store, upload it onto my computer, and share it over soulseek?[/QUOTE]

My process:

* Take CD.
* Put in hard drive and copy.
* Convert to mp3.
* Share over soulseek.

Like that?

I'll try it

The process is called ripping. That's why all mp3s exist in the first place: because someone ripped them from a CD. You do this by using a program like iTunes or MusicMatchJukeBox.

And this -

[url]http://rateyourmusic.com/user_albums/album_list_id_is_60533_and_list_type_is_all[/url]

- is now complete, bar my compilations.

Whenever I open soulseek it asks me for my username and password like it's the first time I'm using it. How can I make it so it keeps the password and username?

P.S BUMP

Um....I have no idea. Also, does anyone know how to check your own username? I've assumed mine is Iai, but to be honest I can't remember signing up. Zappa found me alright though, so I guess it must be Iai.

If you click the tab that says "Web", there should be a soulseek page, and on there it'll say "You are currently logged on as" and then your username.

I added you all. I'm in the process of sorting my music out.

How can I maximise the amount of speed people get downloading from me?

I have an ADSL modem but noone seems to get much above 5kbs.

:(
