Aye, people should buy it from the artist. His music was never accepted by BioWare (which is a damn shame!) and he needs some support. Though I guess if people are indeed curious, hear it for yourself! Thanks Jessie for the upload.

Which is why i won’t upload the flac version. If people really want flac, they can buy it.

Thanks for this share.

thx

Why they never used this is beyond me, but I just bought it from him off his official site. Really superb music!

Thanks!

Well, you might think what i’m doing is wrong, but i was actually trying to help people discover this music. And people actually bought this as a result of me posting it, and i’m sure many others have too.

If you don’t like it, you can always ask me to remove the link.

It is always funny how composers/artists think that every free download means that they’ve actually lost a sale. This is not the case. Some people can’t afford to buy and others wouldn’t even buy if they had the money. You’re not losing any sales, but i’m sure you’ve actually made a few more because of my posting this. If people can actually listen to it for free on your bandcamp page, isn’t that the same as giving it away for free? You mentioned the differences in quality. If you feel people can’t tell the difference, why give them the option in the first place? why not just offer the streamed 128 cbr mp3s instead? Differences in quality is an obvious selling point for me, and more people are starting to want FLAC instead of mp3, especially with Digital releases.

There’s a link to an info page before the download link. The info page has a link to where i bought the music, that same page is how i found out about your release in the first place. So the info page is there for others to do the same.

I’ll replace the download link with your bandcamp link instead. I know what i’m doing is wrong, but i honestly did have good intentions by sharing it, and agree with some of your points. But being a buyer of game music and spending thousands of euros over the years on it, i know that others can’t, and won’t do the same. If people like it after listening to it, they’ll buy it. I don’t see how me offering higher quality mp3s than the ones you are streaming for free is really hurting your sales. The same people that want things for free will just listen to them for free on your site and download the streams. The audiophiles will want to buy the flac.

I bought the music because i loved it after hearing it, other serious buyers and supporters will do the same.

Goddamn, this some serious business here……………….

Something unrelated to copyright and such, I wonder does Bandcamp actually enforce artists to provide music in lossless format? Because I’ve seen something interesting in this very album, track Nova Siberia OC ReMix which is free, if downloaded in FLAC, still has a distinct frequency cutoff at 16 kHz with compression artifacts above said frequency, indicating it was upconverted from an mp3 (or whatever lossy format), effectively making it a so-called fake FLAC.
Why is this Mr. Hinson? Was the original lossless file lost, or this was intentionally mastered as a lossy file?

The plot thickens.

Very interesting with the spectral graph.

If Jessie personally thought the music was literally revolutionary, he would reccomend it personally (like many others do around here)…. thus there is no overt reccomendation from the user Jessie….if you’re an indie artist as you say you are, try different promo techniques instead of Jessie’s free promotion of your work….

Well that’s a shame. Is there any chance of this being put back up? I’m sure Jim’s already made the bulk of whatever he was going to make from bandcamp sales.
