pre-Zdar HSC

[MCScoobyT]

Some of you said you have heard it and have it...
Wondering why it hasn't leaked yet.
Who's heard it?
Who has a copy??
Who wants to share???

Why hasn't it leaked, it's been long enough that there is no reason to sit on it...

[Kid Presentable]

Yeah I'd be keen to hear it, for sure.

[Brother McDuff]

didnt realize that this version had circulated beyond test-listening (for initial release date publication reviews).

if you got it, cough it up people! :o

[pshabi]

I don't recall anyone claiming to have this.:confused:

[Micodin]

It was sent out to DJ/remixers. It's out there. The fact that no one has leaked it yet is quite remarkable.

Ya, I can't remember who, but some OG who doesn't post all that offend, but is around, claimed to have a copy back when HSCp1 had just had a few listen sessions followed by a track by track on-line review.

[Kid Presentable]

I'd be interested to hear if they did strip Nonstop disco powerpack back a little.

I want to hear it before Zdar overcooked it.

Lee Major's lo-fi version I had, sounded differently better....or was
it the lo-fi?:cool:

How would you define 'overcooked'?

I'd be very much interested in a pre-mastering HSCP2 BTW.

[Bradleystp]

Me too! I remember reading reviews from the listening party they had.

[tt5brevisited]

I mean mixed by ZDAR, just not mastered / squashed after that.

[Eoin MCL]

Further to my post in another thread looking for the OG version of "Here's A Little Something For Ya", could anyone please direct me to download links for the 5 songs that were released in the fall 2009 or so?

Pop Your Balloon
B-Boys In The Cut
Too Many Rappers
Lee Majors Come Again
Here's A Little Something For Ya

I have TMR but I'd like to make a little HSC Pt. 1 EP with the Billy Ocean Cover for myself on iTunes.

Thanks y'all, love and respect! :cool:

Well, to me the sound comes off as very very clean and then it's passed throught a distortion effect, that same sound on every song that makes that album production over crunched boosted sound.

I play vinyls and tapes so to me it's not warm enough. Nothing sounds better than analogic distortion.
I really dig the sound of Hello Nasty and all that came before.

So to speak, The Mix Up is raw and HCSP2 is overcooked.

ok, now I am hungry! :p

[tt5brevisited]

I hear you.
Nowadays you just don't know if it is a mixing or mastering decision, that's why I would like to hear HSCP2 mixed by ZDAR but before it got mastered by Vlado Meller, who seems to have no problem contributing to the 'loudness war'.

Here is a review from the original HSC P1 listening party:

[Jay Stone]

I remember reason that a few years ago. So I guess the only thing off there we haven't really heard (in at least some form) is Bundt Cake?

...or the bass war for that matter. don't get me wrong, i love me some heavy bass, but the low-end of the record as a whole isn't too pleasing to me. the bass has a lack of definition, not to mention way too much sub. this makes me wonder if it was a mastering decision or if it was the bboys pushing for too much sub.

i can live with it though :o

[Kid Presentable]

I think they mentioned sub bass in the initial leadup.

I heard it was recorded on a sub!
