Bootleg releases


haste

Recommended Posts

We've added a few bootlegs to the database, most recently this one

 

http://www.rolldabeats.com/release/white_slut/slut001

 

But, to make sure that people are aware of the fact that it's not an official release you can see the big red BOOTLEG on the listing :D

 

There are plenty of others in the db, I'm sure but we need them to be pointed out. Two that I know of are

List any others you know below.

 

We do not want bootleg remixes just random 12s that have collections of tunes on them that are obviously not done by the copyright owners. If in doubt, post below and we can sort it out.

 

Please feel free to list details of bootleg listings below too. Now that we have a way of distinguishing them from normal releases we might as well include them so that people can see

True, looks like it has been categorised wrong. I think we're trying to list shonky, illegal represses of tunes as bootlegs, rather than unauthorised dnb remixes of tunes from other genres.

 

 

Just see which records hard to find are flogging on their site then :D (they were only willing to buy a copy of 26 bass for ?3, too! - and they'd sell it for ?7, easily)...

 

 

Shonky's gonna be my word of the day now, too. Cheers B-)

I had always intended the BOOTLEG releases to be the ones where tunes had been repressed illegally e.g. the Jungle Warfare series.

 

Perhaps we could add an "Unofficial Remix" line to the comments of tunes that fall into the remix category

i haven't gone trough the whole topic so maybe it allready got asked but i was wondering if there shouldn't be some kind of way to let people know about new school jungle tracks mixing older or using the same samples

for example:

subnation "golden hen"

twinhooker "golden dub"

have used the same samples (slight difference in acapella but same artist/track)

the newest version didn't sample off the first and i'm not sure if twinhooker was thinking about making the same track updated

unlike

renegade lighter by white lion soundsystem and tester's lightah on top ranking 2, which are 2 different (new school) takes on the classic

i don't know how people here think about these kind of mixes, i wouldn't think they're bootlegs since they obviously add elements or leave out some

maybe there should be an option to let people know some of these tracks are related, but not simply bootlegs?

I suppose I'd refer to that as an unnoficial remix?

 

We are talking about the ss track, yeah? Do you have audio of these?

by the way i just noticed

http://www.rolldabeats.com/release/tom_and_jerry/pk011

has the "bootleg" on it

is this 100% sure?

it looks like an official release and the catalogue number is 011, but i can't find any previous releases to this catalogue number in the database and it has tom & jerry as the label but i wonder how comes if it's a bootleg? :wacko:
