As of now (9:30 AM Tuesday, MST) the BBC tracks are still available from http://iuma.southern.com/bbcnc/. I'm getting lousy throughput from the site so I've only been able to get the Orb track (a remix of "Oxbow Lakes"). Once I've gotten it down to my home machine and made sure the transfer went okay, I'll put it up for FTP in my area at rt66.com if other folks will promise to try to get me the rest of the material, especially the 808 State track. These aren't .wav files, they're MPEG audio. -- ::: Lazlo (lazlo@rt66.com) ::: http://rt66.com/lazlo/ features Discographies, Record ::: Collecting Resources, The Internet Music Wantlists, and more.

I've just downloaded the Black Dog and Apex Twin tracks onto the hard drive of one of the university's IPXs, so I'm not going to have them for long. I'm willing to transfer them to any ftp site, and any other tracks I manage to cram onto the hard drive.

How are you supposed to play these? I've tried "mpeg_play" and "mpeg2play", which I'd expect to work, but no luck. It just says "This is not an MPEG stream.". Am I being dim? Probably. Ewan.
