gorast Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 It's also entirely possible that the dates of the CD pressings don't correlate with when the recordings themselves date from. If this was a promo CD sent to 99X, maybe these were just the most recent versions of the songs they were authorized to send to people outside the label at that point.That could be true, too. If the Studio Final disc was internal-only, and had just been pressed the day before, the label probably wouldn't have wanted to send those out to a local radio station so early, so they put together a disc of earlier demos on May 8th and sent that out instead. It just bothers me because I organize the demos by the dates printed on the cases, so the Studio Final is sitting above this 6-track. Oh well. Doesn't matter too much. It's interesting that With You didn't appear to have an actual name at the time, considering "Dust Brothers" wouldn't really work as a song title.

jakolp Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 Good demos, HT again, but yet somehow different.. The pressure they must have had was huge I think, changing their songs so many times (even slight changes) Nice find! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jFar Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 (edited) I can digitally recreate most of the cover in a few minutes I like how most of the first page is just VIPs, Staff, Contributors, and so on EDIT: Nevermind, what I pictured in my mind looked better than what came out. Looked like a 10 year old image editing on MSPaint Edited September 17, 2012 by TripleXero Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GingerLP Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 Nice find, does anyone think they could doctor the artwork to make look like it originally did (hybrid theory on the disc and on the cover , get rid of the writing and highlighted plaster) thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danacky Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 Thanks Ginger. Any luck with the cd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GingerLP Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 Thanks Ginger. Any luck with the cdIm not entirely sure what the font is under that, they change the CD every time. I don't want to take the tape off either, since I want to keep it how i got it. You'll have to stick with the other scan, sorry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danacky Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 No worries Ginger. Once again thanks for the great work on the front Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geki Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 (edited) The only LP song off of HT that we don't really have a ''demo'' for is Runaway. Stick N Move is a demo, but it sounds nothing like Runaway and it has no vocals unless you count the Xero demo and not the LPU9 version. Supposedly, the band wrote OSC about the frustration of trying to write Runaway, so you know there were probably tons of different changes in the song. Interesting..

jFar Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 What about Pushing Me Away and Curr for the Itch (and possibly My December if you count that)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gorast Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 What about Pushing Me Away and Curr for the Itch (and possibly My December if you count that)?The versions of both songs on the Studio Final are sufficiently different, aren't they? I can't remember off the top of my head. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geki Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 What about Pushing Me Away and Curr for the Itch (and possibly My December if you count that)? '"The Cure'' on the HT unmastered studio finals CD sounds a lot different than the album version, and ''The Cure For Mr. Hahn's Itch'' from that album (Which is PMA), sounds a tad different as well, so I always kind of considered them demos. But I guess judging by that logic, Runaway from that album is kind of like a demo, too. I guess we really haven't heard EARLY forms of those 3 tracks, then. My bad.

SergSlim Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 What took them so long? I don't know.. It surprised me too... while "Points of Authority" and "Untitled" are already released demos that were heard prior to the release of this album, albeit now in FLAC format. What versions of these songs are they talking about? I mean - this CD contains the same versions of POA and ITE as we already heard. Where did we hear them before?

jFar Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 Points of Authoriry is the HT.com demo. The Untitled is the 9-Track demo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
