Mike Shinoda was live on TikTok today answering fan questions. Here's a recording for those who missed it, courtesy of our friends at LPCoalition.

He very likely doesn't know. It's a similar situation to how he had no idea what "Be Yourself" was because that wasn't the actual title of the song. If someone sent him a link to the live performance he would probably say "oh, that's Pictureboard." We'd need to find a way to show him the clip or the screenshot of the lyrics so he knows what "Thoughts That Take Away My Pride" is. Could even be one of the working titles we already know.

I mean, you're free to discuss it. I personally haven't found any song with that name anywhere. Not by Linkin Park and not by another artist named Xero. The title doesn't sound much like Linkin Park though.

I'm pretty sure this was discussed before and everyone agreed it was a song by a different artist named Xero that was somehow mixed in with Linkin Park on BMI.

We have some sad news today. American DJ, musician, multi-instrumentalist, and record producer Pierce Fulton has passed away last Thursday evening, at 28 years old, following a struggle with mental health as revealed by his old brother Griff on Twitter. The statement encourages fans and friends to send their condolences, photos, videos and recollections of Fulton to pierce@piercefulton.com. The family will be starting an organization in his honor soon. As Linkin Park fans we're all too familiar with the pain of losing your idol, so we'd like to offer Pierce Fulton fans our condolences and ask Linkin Park fans to please lift up his fans on this difficult period. Pierce Fulton made his name in the dance scene via house and progressive house productions. His single 'Runaway' topped Billboard's Emerging Artists chart and 'Kuaga (Lost Time)' was listed at number 38 on Billboard's Dance/Mix Show Airplay chart and used in a Smirnoff ad campaign. He released 3 studio albums, 4 EPs and numerous other singles. Additionally, he created remixes for the likes of Goldhouse, Steve Aoki, Usher and Felix Cartal. In the Linkin Park community, he is known as one of the authors of 'Waiting For Tomorrow.' The single was originally written and recorded during the One More Light sessions in collaboration with Martin Garrix, Brad Delson and Mike Shinoda but was only released in late 2018 following numerous delays. Different demo versions of the collaboration were first previewed by both Martin Garrix and Pierce Fulton during their sets starting in March 2016 and Fulton's version was passed around as a supposed leak of the song. It even received its own unauthorized lyric video from Garrix' former label! Listen below. The official music video for 'Waiting For Tomorrow' was released on October 19, 2018 and stars Ihor Bliusovych and Mike Shinoda. The track hit number 26 on Billboard's Hot Dance/Electronic Songs chart. Source: Billboard

Pointillism (1998 “So Far Away” Demo)
lpliveusername replied to NJPLP's topic in Everything Linkin Park
Nevermind, that IS the November 17 demo. We somehow missed that there were 9 tracks instead of 8. So the Xero 818 demo remains a mystery.- 53 replies

Pointillism (1998 “So Far Away” Demo)
lpliveusername replied to NJPLP's topic in Everything Linkin Park
I think this might be the Xero 818 demo CD they were passing around in early November. We didn't include that anywhere because we didn't have a tracklist before. None of us remember that page you posted here at all. Maybe Jeff Blue updated his book? Is there an exact date (or any indication) for when Jeff Blue received the CD? My guess is late October 1998. The tracklist is very similar to the November 17th demo, but without Rhinestone before Esaul. The November demo also had Step Up replacing Pointillism. I wonder if these two songs are somehow related. We could try to ask Mike on Twitch about Pointillism and this soundtrack he was working on.- 53 replies

'One More Light' Passes 1 Billion Spotify Streams
lpliveusername replied to LPLStaff's topic in Newswire
https://lplive.net/lpdigital/ No. A lot of singles from Hybrid Theory and Meteora are still missing from digital stores. Basically only Somewhere I Belong is available and it's missing the live version of My December. At least now we have all the Hybrid Theory b-sides available on HT20. -
Grey Daze - Amends... Stripped (EP) - January 29, 2021
lpliveusername replied to Soeffingnaive92's topic in Newswire
So the mistake was calling it Stripped and the band never fixed it on the official store / bandcamp. Doesn't make much sense because they changed the name of the song to "The Syndrome" for Amends. -
Grey Daze - Amends... Stripped (EP) - January 29, 2021
lpliveusername replied to Soeffingnaive92's topic in Newswire
I think maybe it was meant to be "Stripped" because the official site lists it that way and Bandcamp is also managed directly by the artists. The "Demo" thing could have been a mistake that the label is not willing to pay to fix (they'd have to pay to submit the songs again to stores/streaming). But I could be wrong. Could be the other way around. That track in particular is very similar to what they had released in 1997 while the others were either unreleased or newly recorded, so that could be the origin of "Demo" in the title. This is also the reason you see "Down Syndrome (Acoustic)" on YouTube. Grey Daze used to have both Wake Me and No Sun Today on their channel before they started promoting Amends. It probably recognizes the track as the 1997 version. The Amends Stripped version just contains some extra studio banter. -
Found the origin of more samples from the Mike MPC folder (the one with .snd files): - PUN&CLEF is Caribbean Connection by Big Punisher and Wyclef Jean. - HIERO_AAH is from You Never Knew by Hieroglyphics. - MOODY_LCHORD2 is House Of Four Doors (Part 2) by The Moody Blues. - KST_N_PARA2 is None But The Lonely Heart by Andre Kostelanetz. - J_NDREW_STAR is Parisian Pierrot by Julie Andrews from the Star! soundtrack. - TORIAM1 is China by Tori Amos. - FRM_RSSA is From Russia With Love by John Barry from the James Bond film of same name. - PORTIS2 is Half Day Closing by Portishead. I couldn't figure out PORTIS1, but it's certainly from another Portishead song. In addition, I think CSL_METH refers to The Crystal Method, SKILLZ to Mad Skillz and KRUSH might be from DJ Krush. PUN_NOISE might be from another song by Big Pun. There are several samples from Björk, one is even a voice sample but it's too short for me to know which song it came from. The strings and electronic noise might be easier to figure out. The samples are usually taken from the intro of songs. If anyone is interested, here's a free software to convert snd to wav so they're playable on any device: http://www.mpc3000.com/wavsnd.htm

Ok, so here is a list of samples used in each Hybrid Theory demo: AL_INTRO: DRUMZ: EMO_PROGRAM: GOOP: HURRY_PRG: HURRY2PRG: KRAK: LA: MIC: MIDNIGHS: NEW_PROGRAM_01: OH_NO: QUA: RENDEZVOUS: RETURN: SIAMO: SIAMO2: SKY2: STICK&MOVE: STICK2: SWISH: TUFF: UGH: Some interesting things here: - Turns out "Rendezvo" and "Stick&Mo" were incomplete names too. The projects were actually titled "Rendezvous" and "Stick&Move"; - The Moody Blues sample was used on Qua; - The Madama Butterfly and Rendezvous strings were used both in Technique and the second version of Stick N Move (but not in the first!); - Sky (Crawling) uses several sounds created for Stick N Move and the strings are from a Björk song; - The Smashing Pumpkins sample was used in Hurry.

Grey Daze - Amends... Stripped (EP) - January 29, 2021
lpliveusername replied to Soeffingnaive92's topic in Newswire
As far as I know, it's listed everywhere as demo except for the official store where it's listed as stripped. -
So it turns out MOODYTUES is a sample from Tuesday Afternoon by The Moody Blues. Does anybody know in which Hybrid Theory demo this sound is used?
-
Great find! I wonder if the other .snd files might reveal more information about the other demos as well.

Mike Shinoda to release "Golden Falcon" (and more music) on Audius
lpliveusername replied to PeppePark's topic in Newswire
I think it wasn't the actual track, but the stems for fans to remix. Audius only had 5. He sent 10 on Twitch. I'm uploading them here: https://mega.nz/folder/6LhzgKrL#8ckvTPscoSx47cNo9en5WQ -

lpliveusername replied to PeppePark's topic in Newswire
The best thing about this is that they stream on 320kbps and the platform claims to be free. Will be great to have the Twitch tracks officially released in good quality. In general it sounds like another cryptocurrency scheme. They use their own currency called $AUDIO to pay the artists but it seems the "monetization" isn't implemented yet: https://edm.com/events/audius-celebrates-mainnet-launch-deadmau5-live-stream https://edm.com/.amp/gear-tech/audius-3-million-active-users They recently added the possibility of artists listing their NFTs on the platform under the Collectibles tab, so you will find Mike's on his page. I see some stuff that wasn't on Zora. https://edm.com/gear-tech/audius-collectibles-nft-platform -
Bruiser and Space Station were actual Linkin Park demos and likely created by Mike since the projects were in his computer. The others are demo tracks created for Stagelight with other sounds from the Linkin Park bundles. Not sure if the band was involved in their creation.

I guess I didn't pay enough attention when I was writing the post. lol

Linkin Park posted about it on social media and they say June 12 instead of July 17. Does that mean the official Record Store Day list is wrong?
