I had it from, like, early ’13 or late ’12. The source guy is my friend. I don’t remember where he got it from but he had the YT channel. We were members of a private forum and we exchanged some LP instrumentals and multitracks. We went our separate ways when the forum got shut down. Later that year I found a youtube video of this so-called “official instrumental” so I thought I’d leave the guy a message. Turns out it was that friend and he said I was one of the very few people he’d be willing to share it with in full quality. Well, I guess I’m the only one who kept his word not sharing it.
Not that I wouldn’t want the community to have it, but when you get your hands on something like this or, let’s say, PMAW stems, you want to be damn sure it doesn’t leak, because that generally causes problems as many of the tracks are digitally watermarked, which means the source can (and eventually will) be tracked.
The instrumental itself is very interesting though, which made me skeptical about it at first. If you try to align it with the album version, it changes speed in some parts.
Anyway, after that I stopped trading because I was sick of it. I also completely changed music genres to more soundtrack-ish style oriented music which meant I stopped caring about this completely. With that said, I still love LP and am interested in getting new LP instrumentals but not so much in trading. I could PM you my Iridescent instrumental but I don’t think it’s any different from what you already have.
You mean those from that Pedruko guy? BIO is legit, it’s from some WBR instrumental promo, I saw it around somewhere. His SotD has some weird synth which makes me believe it’s faked, possibly from GH multitracks? Not sure about WID, though.
PS: Astat, thanks for your for your reply, man. Means a lot. I love your tabs, your guitars, and vids… Also, your notes are so interesting to read! Hope you’re well and rocking it.
//edit: You should start including download for your guitar tracks, Astat! I’d love to hear them separately
