Release Notes
─────────────
Let it be known before I start off, that we've instigated none of this.
We're merely responding to what has happened in the past 24 hours, namely
a Signum release from someone who claimed to be us. We understand we're
rocking a lot of boats because of our presence, and well, we didn't
intend on sinking any ships. Someone (or a group, or a couple of groups
under different monikers) is intent on smearing our lovely name with
a group that releases those shitty floaters we see on public forums and
those pay ones aswell (TrueMP3s and Trance Paradize, we're looking at
you.) I seem to recall the last group who called us out on releasing
an Eric Prydz 'floater' being embarrassingly wrong (because everyone knows
that Prydz is too paranoid to give his tracks to anyone.) In all honesty,
we're sick and tired of it.
Spectral graphs show that the 320's that was released were horrible,
horrible re-encodes of either a set-rip or something else absolutely
retarded (possibly from the existing CDS rip out there.) Your actions
leave a lot to be desired and prove how incredibly immature people become
when their position is suddenly threatened by something new and (dare I
say it,) improved. Fair enough all those well-rooted CD groups are incredibly
good at what they do, but you've also got understand labels and artists
are seeing the light and the end of what you'd call the online-tunnel.
Digital stores provide artists and labels with more revenue than CD sales
do. I won't disagree with the euphemism that holding a CD in your hands
is ten times better than a digital download invoice.
I'm not prepared to point any fingers or slander any other group out there
as a result of a few individuals, but I will provide you with some
coincidental data. We understand that imitation is the highest form of
flattery, but if you're going to attempt to tarnish our name, get your
tagging in line. (Remember kids, ID3 tags are the equivalent of RFID
for the internet.)
These are some of the tags imbedded in that fake release:
=== TLAN (Language(s)): eng
=== TRCK (Track number/Position in set): 1/2
=== TXXX (User defined text information): (Rip date): 2008-08-24
=== TDAT (Date): 0000
=== TXXX (User defined text information): (Source): Web
=== TSSE (Software/Hardware and settings used for encoding): WEB
=== TXXX (User defined text information): (Ripping tool): EAC
=== TXXX (User defined text information): (Release type): Normal release
These are some tags that look awfully similar from another release:
=== TLAN (Language(s)): eng
=== TRCK (Track number/Position in set): 5/5
=== TXXX (User defined text information): (Rip date): 2008-08-23
=== TYER (Year): 2008
=== TDAT (Date): 2308
=== TXXX (User defined text information): (Source): WEB
=== TXXX (User defined text information): (Ripping tool): EAC
=== TXXX (User defined text information): (Release type): Normal
Just a few things, if you're prepared to mimic something we do, make sure
you don't include redundant frames. We aren't using any sort of auto-tagger,
which includes such useless frames as the 'Ripping tool'. I don't think
we've ever dated a release in such way that we include a Rip date imbedded
into the file (that's what the NFO is for, right?) Like I said, I'm not
going to point any fingers, because that'd be childish, but I'll leave
you to be the judge.
As I said earlier, none of us have qualms with any of the groups out
there, infact they do a brilliant job at bringing us some quality music
but to be called out like this is just plain arrogant. We do this for fun,
we aren't any sort of profitable group, we don't use stolen credit cards
like a lot of people may (because who wants to be caught because of something
as silly as that?) We aren't running any sort of forum or public-access
board to benefit ourselves in any way, shape or form. Shit, we aren't
even a 'sub-group' of any existing group out there. Think about it, would
we be doing both CD and WEB if we had a parent group who does just
CD?
If you feel that we've suddenly come out of nowhere, and begun to make
a dent in those groups already existing, it is because we have.
If our anonymity is what scares everyone, then so be it, it's better
to be unknown for our security than have everyone know who we are
and ruin your chances of getting those trance releases quicker. If
you're just pissed we keep 'snatching' releases before you do, think
of it as some healthy competition. We focus on those track you hear
on an episode of A State of Trance, Club Elite, or Global DJ's
and you can't get them out of your head because really, we can't
either. We aren't going anywhere, and we intend to stick around and
provide those who love their trance with what they deserve. We aren't
demanding respect, because that's earnt over time, but we would
like some common courtesy and decency about things.
To quote the 4Chan idiom:
We are Anonymous, we are legion, we do not forgive, nor do we forget.
Expect us.
