I thought it would be a good idea to make a separate thread for this, so that way it won't clutter up the RTT.

I don't know if anyone here is into Rockband 1 or 2 or any of that rubbish. But this dude I know was telling me that they use the original studio master tracks (separated into guitar, drums, bass & vocals) And I thought to myself "fuck, that would be sweet if you could hear some of the isolated instrument tracks". So I did some research on the internet and found out that some people have ripped these isolated instrument tracks right from the game onto their computers. So I've downloaded some from various sites and posted them on MegaUpload. This is much better than user created backing tracks for two reasons: One, they are the ORIGINAL masters; Two, you can make a backing track from a combination of any tracks you want if you have audio editing software.

Files are .Ogg format (works with Winamp) and songs by the same band are packed into one RAR file.

Paddy : Ace of Spades is the live version (that's the only one available) Do you still want it? Also, for some strange reason, Even Flow and Jeremy aren't available And Paranoid isn't a master, it's a cover track I also just got Master of Puppets a few minutes ago if you want that

JoeYngVai : Are you saying you want everything except the vocal tracks? Or just the vocal tracks? Or all the tracks?

__________________

Ahhh, well I'll just do without the live/cover tracks Paster of Muppets sounds like a most worthy replacement for them!

Thanks for doing this chief, it's greatly appreciated

I'd gladly just take everything except the vocal tracks. But as long as I have control over all of the tracks anyways, it would be cool just to have them all I suppose.

If you can get all those that I requested I will be very appreciative of your actions

Hah, here we go Paddy... finally fucking finished!
http://www.filefactory.com/file/agc...s_Package_D_rar
I had to use FileFactory this time because MegaUpload has a fucking file size limit, and your file is almost 300mb

Just remember, you owe me

Haha, but seriously, it's no problem man! What's the use of discovering something great and keeping it all to yourself? T'would be greedy and selfish, methinks.

Anyways, sorry it took so long

I WANTS MEH MUSIC BLITZ!

no but srsly I would much appreciate it

Mate, you're a saint among men and women and midgets. How fast is your upload? This would have taken me fucking ages!

Thank you thank you Ever need a kidney, look no further

Dude, Blitz, don't leave me hanging here buddy!

If you can't get the tracks let me know so that my eager anticipation doesn't continue.

__________________

Don't worry dude, I'm working on getting them together I've been away for a week because I was really sick (explanation in RTT thread) But I'm 100% better now

It only took about 20 minutes to upload the whole file. I can't remember what speed the transfer was exactly. I'm on cable.

I have enough in my freezer... but thanks anyways man, that was a very thoughtful offer

__________________

Well, I do have one other meat product you might want inside you in an emergency...I'll PM you the details/measurements

Shit, man, sorry about that. I didn't know you were sick because my visitations to the green screen have been a little limited as of late.

The swine flu sucks... and so does its estimates: "World health Organization officials believe as many as 1.5 billion people around the globe would seek medical care and nearly 30 million would seek hospitalization. Based on the last pandemic and current world population, as many as 7 million people could die, epidemiologists said."

I'm going to try not to get panicky though. I'm concerned, but that's it so far.

It sounds like a reasonably genuine threat coupled with hysterical, fearmongering journalism. Either that or the New World Order is starting to cull the world's population via bio-weaponry. In that case, RUN! FUCKING RUN NOW!! RUUUUUUUUUUUUN!!!!

No worries man.

I don't even have the swine flu I had bad withdrawal symptoms from antidepressants lol.

Luckily for me I live 10 hours away from Vancouver
But I guess that could spread pretty quickly. I'm not worried about this anyways. Most of these viruses end up being no big deal... like SARS, or the Bird Flu, or the West Nile Virus, or Syphilis.

That was the last thing I needed to hear lol.

Oh dear...5 or 7 cases in Germany of swine flu.
I guess most of the people will die in the third world and in south america...But I don`t hope it`s gonne get a pandemic thing.

Tomorrow`s the 1st May. Riots all over Germany on this day but this year I won`t go on streets...Too much problems with the bulls in last time

well everyone knows that if you get swine flu you get a headache and then your lungs collapse and your head explodes. I am very concerned, and I will never be sarcastic ever again, just because of the severeness of the swine flu.

I have all of them except this one. Is that one even in Rock Band? I can't find it anywhere.

__________________

forget about it if you can get the rest. I'lk appreciate it even if you can only get a few of those tracks i requested.

__________________

Yeah I was able to get all of them except that one I mentioned above.
Here you go man, enjoy!

http://www.filefactory.com/file/agh...ster_Tracks_rar


Will you be sending that by air or ground? I'd prefer air, as I don't want it all dried out and crusty when it gets here. Ground shipping takes for-fucking-ever
