Not exactly what you’re asking, but kinda related…
I had a neighbor who was renting and before he left he called me over one afternoon as I was walking back from school.
He mentioned he’d seen me moving my PC in and out (it was around 2001/2002 and I was lanning constantly) and he offered me two UPS’s (both fucked) and about 8 mp3 cd’s.
I took it all, tested a few tracks and wasn’t interested at first. Then I hit one track that caught me, and I figured if there was one good track, there must be more.
I ripped them all and gave the disks back to him the same afternoon.
It was all triphop. DJ shadow, nightmares on wax, irresistible force, Herbaliser, DJ food, Tosca, and so many more.
One of the best choices I ever made.
Peace to that stoner dude man, I didn’t even get his name.
I lost all my techno mp3 CDs from back in the day. would put about 150 songs on each disc and bought an aftermarket stereo that would specifically play mp3 discs. sad times.
Miss my portable MP3 CD player so much. Tried to show it off to friends, but nobody cared that I could fit 100 songs on a CD because by then everyone had moved on to their stupid iPods with their massive 5GB of hard drive space.
