well, or are part of a small group that has heard it
mine;
an unnamed autechre track circa 1989

Torrent that shit!
Me: Tons of great unreleased music by friends, internet friends, and people on IRC. The music market is underserved; most publishable manuscripts are getting printed as books, but easily 10 times as much excellent music could be released as what actually is.
I can't name anything that you would have heard of, though, unless it's already widely distributed due to P2P -- Brian Eno's 1991 "My Squelchy Life" album, for example. And of course, I have the almost certainly fake copies of early Boards of Canada albums that are going around (probably might as well delete those, though, because they're fake).
I can say that I am the only person here who has listened to anything by Torturing Nurse.
Accidental Superhero, maybe.
its a friend's ex-band.
Dozens of tracks I made, generally named untitled-nn. Sometimes I don't feel like finishing a track until six months later.

I was going to contradict you, but I was thinking of Nurse with Wound. Are you in Shanghai?
Let's see.... There's Death from a lover's hand from Austria. Then T.P. from Idaho. And Helden isn't even out yet but I have it.
Ew, you noise twats with your Torturing Nurse With Wound bollocks. Yes I have heard of them, both are arse.
I'm probably the only one here who's heard of DW2K6, a mate's music thing. But I think you cop out when you pick bands/solo projects of your friends.
How about Halmens? Anyone know them?
> Yes I have heard of them, neither was to my taste.
fixed
pretty much the same as >>5, but signed as "unregistered".
otherwise unreleased tracks from friends (Greuh Or Philibert 1er Especially), or unexistant tracks from the nonexistent elitist superstructure of DQN or other underground parts of the internets...
I've heard a song I've made called "Rise". YESH, WANT. MOAR.

Nurse With Wound aren't bad actually, I was harsh there. But Torturing Nurse = the equipment they use. Even if you like the sound of it, you have to admit it's just some expensive analog equipment whirring away and having its knobs twiddled.
They are shit by deduction.
I have a CD-R full of demos and other rare tracks by Kevin Gilbert, who was a very talented singer and musician back in early/mid-nineties that always seemed to be one step away from fame. He accidentally killed himself in 1996, but his music has enjoyed a small following since then, especially thanks to the internet. Anyway, the CD-R was burned for me by somebody who was connected to Gilbert, and it contains lots of songs that most people, including Gilbert fans, have not heard. The problem is that a lot of them are in lossy formats. :(

I've listened to them too, but that's only because I made them.
>>17
You should share that, not that I'm personally interested, but you should share that with the internet.
They're in lossy formats, so what? The soul of the music is what counts. For proof, see http://4-ch.net/music/kareha.pl/1191795608/
I care about sound quality as much as the next guy (actually, probably a lot more than the next guy), but keeping songs to yourself because of that is just absurd.
Uh... I bought an out-of-print Abney Park CD that looked home-released. Does that count?
my sleep - IXIA
grabbed them off of a macword cd... 3-4 years ago. they used to bundle music from san francisco bands on their cds and although I kept the song i've only googled (to no avail) for these guys and never dug up the specific CD.
if an anon HAS heard of them or knows of an album i would be very happy. I could probably rapidshit the song on request.
>>19
I'm very willing to share it, actually. It's just that nobody has really expressed interest in it. If somebody asked me to upload the tracks for them, I'd do it for sure. The problem is that most people I talk to online have never even heard of Kevin Gilbert, so they wouldn't want to hear a bunch of low-quality demos and b-sides by him.
Ah, okay... so the real problem isn't the lossy formats. :)
Maybe "Old Hurricane Blues" by the Mexican Hat band.
Here's the link for music by iXia...
Yeah well you're a noise fan! (I'm assuming). But go look at post 16, I explained myself, I'm not a jerk.
It's just, to listen to that stuff you have to open your mind to the level of "wow, the sound of air and birds singing outside my window is fucking DEEP". And then you either go bald, stroke your chin a lot and become a curator, or turn into some gonzo nihilist wackjob who espouses aphoristic bullshit in interviews (see EYE).
Even things like Nurse With Wound have cohesion, because they're almost like producers or mixers. I just have a beef with that twiddle the knobs, "WOW SUCH BEAUTIFULLY HARSH NOISE!" shit. Not enough of a beef to dress all V For Vendetta and picket it though.
