Honestly i doubt it. I dont think NBA Inside Stuff background music counts as soundtrack in any way. I think the NBA Inside Stuff - BG Cues song is probably one of the songs we already have, maybe Rhinestone.

Yes thats him, he has plenty of social media. Ive been trying to contact him for years but he never replied.

Hmm this is interesting, id love to see if more info can be found about this

Make sure to check Linkipedia, Im sure many of the info i mentioned exist in Linkinpedia too, and probably info for more of the stuff you posted that I didnt think of from the top of my head. By the way I believe your post doesnt violate any rules As long as you dont provide download links for any material officially released you are safe. Most of these are from youtube anyway so. Imo you should include the channel names etc, I doubt anyone would harass people, LP community aint like that. Its hard for us to evaluate or even understand what you have there, without listening ourselves.

Just from the top of my head here are some more info: -The Xero Faith instrumental is a fanmade one by a friend of him, he didnt intend to pass it as a real one. However he doesnt have any demo "See" in his channel. -The Xero Pictureboard is legit, it leaked this summer. -The Xero Rhinestone Audition Instrumental is also legit, however its a lazy rip TJ Demonte did. He has re-ripped his audition tape but he hasnt publish it and idk if he will. - The Don't Stay/99 Problems demo is just fanmade. Al-B did that one and another LP-JZ remix back in the day 99 Problems/One Ster Closer, which got very popular. The dj is claiming it sparked the idea for Collision Course, which has never been confirmed, however there is a WBR internal cd that contains his remix, however its not an official remix. - What Are You Worth is legit - Good Goodbye demo is legit - About Looking For An Answer I remember Mike back in the day said he had made 2 versions, one with a more LP-ish instrumental and one more stripped like the Hollywood Bowl one and he wasnt sure which one to put out. However neither of those version have leaked. Idk if you just found em like that lol - All The Mall Soundtrack demos you mentioned are legit and if I remember correctly there is another demo but I dont remember the name rn. - Papercut vs David Banner (Remix) is legit an official remix. Its from a Mixtape of that mashed up rock and rap artists by DJ Vlad & Roc Raida. Mike was the "host" of the Mixtape, he did some interludes/skits and stuff for them, so yeah this remix is official and approved by Mike for sure. - I doubt any of the other remixes you mentioned is legit.

This i was an interesting topic to follow. Its a pity it turned up to probably be fake. Personally I liked the sound of the snippet.

OMG, they are killing me, I have preordered it was really looking forward to getting it in January.

I just relistened to Dialate reading Jeff's quote. The description pretty close to how Dialate sounds. Fits the era too. I can say there is a pretty big chance its actually Dialate the song he is referring too.

Where can I get a hard copy in Europe?

No chance Deftest is Reborn. Deftest is one of the very first Xero songs (pre 4 track tape) and also it was a Mark experiment. There is no chance the band continued working on Deftest long enough for Chester to have sung on it too. I can tell you right now that, with what we have, Deftest cant be Reborn. But it would be cool to clear up whats up with Reborn if someone could ask Mike on Twitch about the song.

Is this remix available somewhere? Cant find it.

Lol there probably is just one of it 😂 So lets get it 😂 Its not a song, just the artwork cover of the cd, it was done by Joe and its very cool. Mike did the artworks for Rapology 12,13,14,16 too.

Xero Hunting Team still works on projects. Not Rhinestone obviously, but other stuff. We now operate on discord If you are interested to join just PM Me or comment here

Yeah i was so hoping the Xero chapter would be completed with this release. But guess what, if the 3-track-tape exists I WANT IT 😂

In both this thread and the older one from 2016, Joe was the one to make the 3 songs tape statement. This could just be the case of Joe mixing up stuff.

Any update on this? Im really looking forward to it

True that. Imagine getting a proshot of the one with Snoop Dogg, not even the audio exists for that.

My top 3 would be: Xero Reborn Thoughts That Take Away My Pride My December [Team Sleep Remix]

Yeah i remember Mike not wanting the Crow version out. Im pretty sure thats the version we are getting in HT20 too, im just hoping its something slightly different and not the EXACT same.

They get stuff mixed up all the time, dates, songs, facts, everything. Its normal to not instantly remember a DEMO u barely worked on (since it must have been mainly Xero). I doubt it was a joke and honestly it would be the best thing ever if either Could Have Been or Dialate is this song, it would put a closure to the whole Xero era as we know it. (There is also the NBA Inside song, but Im pretty sure its a song we already have.) We dont know for sure its the ONLY version with Mark. But knowing how close the instrumental of The Crow Version is to the Hybrid Theory earliest demo, im pretty sure it was the last they recorded with Mark. Im pretty sure it will be the one we have but im really hoping its something slightly different.

It doesnt exist in better. The source was 128 im pretty sure of it. if someone says different let me know, id love to have it in 320. I did got it in “320” but in reality its still the 128 so im sure its was the source.

Yeah id love to get HT EP cd as personally idc about vinyls since i cant play em. I was pretty bumped to release its not there. Stick N Move is was my fav LP track outside their albums, getting a Chester version might actually put it on my top 5 lp songs, even top 3.

Are these gonna be limited or something?

Am I the only one that expected the biggest package to be more expensive?

All of you saying Andrew played bass on Pictureboad for sure cause of circumstantial evidence. None one you saw this? “And so started playing with this one band. And we traded music and got together two or three times.” This could easily be from them “trading music” and thats just all he had left from Xero so he uploaded it. That’s the most logical explanation to me. Im not saying he couldnt have played bass on this, but with the evidence we got, id say this is more likely.
