Who really has the time to go through all the VLS blogs out there and siphon out the dope? We're going to go ahead and do that for you. Since I'm always on the hunt for random obscure tracks from the 90's, that I sometimes don't even remember the names of, I've accumulated a pretty expansive VLS collection. I've been a damn good selector up to this point, with music at least, so I don't think you'll be disappointed by the quality that will be presented in this series of compilations.
Now, the last thing we would want to do is to not give credit to the original uploaders. So, I'm going to list a whole bunch of VLS blogs that I have visited, at one time or another, below. If you feel that something here came from your blog, leave a comment. I also would like to note that the tags FTD, BYL, SOUP, BYN, CMS and others have shown up repeatedly through my VLS collection. So, props to them, whoever they are, wherever they are. But, to be honest with you, I can't stand having tags on mp3s. It's an obsessive compulsive keep it neat thing, not a dis, so most tags have been removed.
This is important: Some of these compilations will be posted here and some will be exclusive to the Skypager mailing list. So, if you haven't signed up yet, now may be a good time to do that. Just look for it on the right side of this page and put your email in there or click here. Volume 1 was posted here and Volume 2 was sent out via Skypager. I'm going to try to include the instrumentals if I have them. Also, sometimes I might throw in something that isn't from a single or an EP just to fit the mix or theme. So, no, there was not a 12" release for 7 Degrees Of Elevation. Sorry about that.

ReplyDeleteThere's nothing that needs to be straightened out, he can go to the Skypager site and click on "discussions" and get any link from any previous post.
