Yes, this is "filler" for a New Order soundcheck recording that comprises side B (which I already had in better quality), or maybe that was filler for this.  Who knows, all I know is that this wasn't documented on setlist.fm, at least until now.

This tape was received as part a collection of about 150 or so New Order tapes I got from BV back around 1999 or so.  I will also share this (in 16 bit/44.1kHz form) on a popular Bittorrent trading site, just so we can find out more about the track I have single parenthesis on which may have a different title than 'Things That You Should Know' (ironic, that).  Interestingly enough, I have a faint recollection that I may have shared this recording back in 2004 on another site that was known as EZT, but prior to where I was keeping any great records.

And yes, this filler has filler!  Which is interesting because both are antepoedian (OZ/NZ) bands, so this establishes that BV likely received this tape from none other than DAP (aka "Crankingamps"), and that it's probably AU2.

Update : looks like it's from directly from bcingyou and is AU1, and an upgrade from his master tape may be forthcoming at some point, and that the filler was the sort of stuff he'd pad onto tapes.  Another mystery solved.

I'm using initials/handles because putting full names online w/o express permission is unnecessary.

The first is this utterly fantastic song by Adelaide group MARK OF CAIN.

 


This EP was released in 1993 so this copy was made some time in the mid-90s.  The final track Lords Of Summer borrows riffs from Joy Division's "Dead Souls"....speaking of which....

The next track is a cover of "Transmission" from a Wellington NZ group called D-Vice.

It's was released from a 1985 single of theirs, though this I believe is a live take.

FLLR DAT-01 - A Box of DATs

-

My project for this part of the year is to transfer a huge cache of DATs (pictured above) that contain much that likely has already been put out there but also seems to have quite a bit that has not. So of course here at tapefiller.org the whole point isn't to present these (they will go through the usual channels) but instead, anything that wasn't listed on either the spine or in an insert, grouped in digestible bites of songs. So without any further ado, here's the first set. Nirvana - Return Of The Rat (The Wipers) .   The description can tell it to you better than I can... looks like the taper/compiler had a copy of the Eight Songs For Greg Sage and the Wipers comp. Hole - Over The Edge (The Wipers) [cut] It's probably not becoming to give any credence to any conspiracy theories about Kurt's passing but let's just say reading about the possibilities did pass the time for me one warm summer nearly 30 years ago...Amusing to see the guy still at it...though

FLLR GB001 - GaoBest tapes - Saint Etienne

  South Parade Pier, Portsmouth FLLR GB001 = Saint Etienne This first selection from this Maxell XLII 90 minute tape was recorded on 1993-03-05 at South Parade Pier, Portsmouth. Taper is abbreviated as YP, who probably recorded with a Sony TC-D3 DAT and Aiwa CM-30 mics.  GaoBest's copy comes directly from the taper. It's one of his favorites, he played it frequently before it got shelved and then loaned out to me to ascertain and compare to what's already out there.   This show is already up on YouTube, here, from  "whatdoidonow 1997 ", and my tape source doesn't better it. Turns out that my tape ran a bit fast compared to this reference, so slowed it down 4.67% or about .79 a semitone, so that it is the exact same 45:00 length.  I've also provided the original transfer so you can compare and conclude it indeed runs too fast. NOTE: this is not just true for Portsmouth, as it was pointed out to me, but for the entire tape, so I've also speed corrected t

FLLR 003 - New Order + ACR bits and bobs

Our third post in, and we have a bunch of miscellaneous, simply -lovely- Factory filler for you. New Order end their Saturday Live performance (which otherwise won't feature here, you can readily find this on YouTube) with a tease of Smokey Robinson's "My Girl" - A1 Then the band, appearing in an MTV Tokyo interview when they played Japan in February of 1987, talk about some of their quite innovative and remarkable music videos - A2 A3  - Then the video mix of 'Confusion' is featured, which you can hear here (hear hear!) Or you can watch the actual video, which Warners has generously (to make a few dollars from their catalog) shared online. What struck me when I first saw this video (on the Substance 1989 video compilation) is that you could clearly see the name of the person featured getting ready to go to the show, at about 1:25 in, as this clip coveniently reveals.  ALISE BITIC.   And incredibly enough, here she is today, now
