Notes: Audio from a video shot by an MTV camera during the initial recording run-throughs
of MCIS with Flood over 2 days. From what i've heard the camera man was fired and took the tapes
he shot with them, hence this got out. Testing out the practice space, mostly jamming and run-throughs.
Recording portions of Zero so Flood can see how the room sounds. Quite neat...to me anyway.

Flaws: Pops and static from video occasionally.

Some songs no one (to my knowledge) knows about:

Satellites
Without You
Joy
Cross (not the one on the SPFC)
Jersey Shore
Valentine



Satellites
---------------
Me and her
We get around
Never see much
Staring hard
Into the ground
Electricity for love

You know it's the end of all
You know this is the end
It's what you've been waiting for
Like a long lost friend
Attached by satellites
Attached by satellites
Attached by satellites
It's a long way down

You're an angel
I don't wanna go to heaven
You're an angel
I don't wanna go to heaven
You're an angel
I don't wanna go to heaven
You're an angel
I don't wanna go to heaven

Me and her
Get around
We always rock the bus
Each a tube inside the ground
Electricity for love

You know this is the end
You know it's the end
It's what you've been waiting for
Like a long lost friend
Attached by satellites
Attached by satellites
Attached by satellites
Satellites
It's a long way down

You're an angel
I don't wanna go to heaven
You're an angel
I don't wanna go to heaven
You're an angel
I don't wanna go to heaven
You're an angel
I don't wanna go to heaven


Without You
------------------
We're tamed to be
The bumble bee
We're tamed to please
Our deep blue seas
The gin wheeze of everything

Without you
Within you
Beside you
Fell into
A bad dream
Without you
Without you

Let's aim to see
The deep blue sky
Let's aim to squeeze
The last drops out of life

Without you
Within you
Beside you
Fell into
The worst dream
Without you
Without you


Joy
-----------
I feel joy
I feel just
Like a boy
And now I
PLay with my toys

Nothing's really changed
I don't feel sad
you know I
Don't feel mad for my age
I'm happy just being

Someone just like me
In a way you will be
Any way in the world throws me down now
Now, world throws me right on down
and the world spills me right on down
world drains me right on down and

I feel joy
I feel just
Like a boy
And now I
Play with my noise
Nothing's really changed

I feel joy
I feel such
Happy joy
As a child I
Owned the noise
Nothing's smashing down

Happy just to be alive
Happy just to survive
Blows the tragedy down
World blows me right on down
World drains me right on down
World spills me right on down
And
Right on down and


Cross (yet another Cross...heh)
---------------------------------

Climb a cross
A sea-filled cross
Climb above
The still water

Desperate to
Seek to way
Earn your chance
With golden harvest

Find my hand pressing in
Meant no feeling in
Just the distance calling
It's distance calling
It's distance calling

There is no wanting
There's no way across
There is no wanting and can't go on
In a world you'd understand
This is your moment
In a world of being
Shoulda been dead, left for dead
This distance calling
This distance calling
This distance calling

(cuts off early)


Jersey Shore
----------------

On the Jersey shore
Spend all our dimes
I was getting change
Back of my mind

Shooting blanks
In Jerseytown
We tunnelled in
Manhattan-bound

What can we do?
There's life here for me
With a sweet young thing
And a cool, cool breeze

To the smokestack chime
We carry forth
Cinder child
And nights we forced

They are saints hovering
The last soul is carried
Let him go on a riverbed
God rest your soul
God rest this town

What shall we do?
There's life yet for me
With a sweet young thing
And a cool, cool breeze
Say a prayer for me

In the pinball din
Done with glow
Dream the Jersey shore
We kiss in here

I'm the Jersey shore
It's where I died
Hat in hand
My eyes to the sky


Valentine
---------------

Let the horses run
You're deserting me
Catch the thread-bare strains
Of departing trains
Bound for the last goodbyes
Yet thought you'd think you'd know

You're sure you did your care
She was always there
For you to kick around
But now she's let you down
Now she's gone to stay
With the frost and pray
If God could hear her prayers
Would he care?

Valentine, heart of mine
Come and ease my worried mind
It's plain to see
I'm not so free
Valentine, heart of mine

And from a window
You spy her ghost
Laughing ground
And taking notes

It seemed to so easy
To put it down
And leave the wreckage
For someone else

Valentine, heart of mine
Take this blood
This broken vine
It's plain to see
I ain't so free
Valentine, heart of mine

You smell of hair
Everywhere you go
You see her lips
Where you're leaving notes

Oh, Valentine
She's never 'round
Leaves you cold to
Have and hold

Valentine, heart of mine
Come and ease my worried mind
It's plain to see
I'm not so free
Valentine, heart of mine.

SMASHING PUMPKINS
1993
Kitty Kat (original mix)
Studio
Virgin promo cassette > CDR > EAC > Wav > Flac

Set list:

1. Kitty Kat (Original Mix) 4:30

This song was originally intended to be on the Pumpkins' 1993 album Siamese Dream, but it was pulled at the last minute. This song comes from a promo cassette distributed before the album's release. The mix is different from the later release of the song under the title "Hello Kitty Kat" on the "Today" single; the vocals are not distorted on this version.

The actual title of the song on the promo cassette was "Kitty Kat".

I received this in a trade back in 1995 from a guy who owned the cassette. Unfortunately, his cassette had become partially demagnetized, so the first 1:30 of the song suffers from an annoying whooshing/phasing. I have never found anyone with another copy of this, so as annoying as that "whooshing" may be, it's the best available copy.

MCIS Demos III (AKA Demos for D'arcy)

Restored by Max2Max 02/23/2007

Original notes (Thanks to the previous seeder, I don't remember his name...):
================================================== ==========================================

These demos were treed earlier this year as part of the Reel Time
Sessions tree. This rip is a lower generation than that which was treed.
It was copied onto DAT from the source tape and then transferred onto CD.
I've never heard the original treed version of this so I can't say how much better this sounds (if much at all).

01. Stumbleine
02. Jupiters Lament
03. Lilly (my one and Only)
04. To Forgive
05. Bullet with Butterfly Wings
06. Here is No Why
07. Galapogos
08. Frantic Ab Groove
09. Feelium
10. God
11. Marquis in Spades

================================================== ==========================================

* On MCIS Demos III - Demos for D'arcy 1994-09-xx Studio > ANA-L > CDR, noise reduction is used and not for the better IMHO, some tracks are i mono too.
* On this release, no noise reduction, EQ or compression. Only pitch and volume correction with sound forge.
* All tracks except 9 and 10 also appear on MCIS Demos I but here with an A sound :-)
* Track 9 is the full version of Feelium. A clip of Feelium can be heard in Pastichio Medley.

Details :

1. pitch shift + right channel volume correction + normalize
2. pitch shift + right channel volume correction + normalize
3. pitch shift + right channel volume correction + normalize
4. pitch shift + right channel volume correction + normalize
5. pitch shift + right channel volume correction + normalize
6. pitch shift + right channel volume correction + normalize
7. pitch shift + right channel volume correction + normalize
8. pitch shift + right channel volume correction + normalize (mono on Studio > ANA-L > CDR, stereo here !)
9. pitch shift + right channel volume correction + normalize (mono on Studio > ANA-L > CDR, stereo here !)
10. pitch shift + right channel volume correction + normalize (mono on Studio > ANA-L > CDR, stereo here !)
11. pitch shift + right channel volume correction + normalize (mono on Studio > ANA-L > CDR, stereo here !)

All credits to bmaromar for the original tape and rhinowing for the transfer and share.

The original release ran a little too fast so my main intention was too fix this, a few extra tweaks ended up being tackled too.
Sounds as good as we're likely to get!

Reel Time Sessions Bonus Tracks

BONUS TRACKS: three bonus tracks were tacked to the end of disc 2 for those who
participated in the tree of this material. Time has Come Today is from Last Exit,
11-20-88 Chicago. Jennifer Ever is the same version found already in circulation,
but with only a single guitar track (no drums, etc). Nothing + Everything comes
from an unknown date and venue in 1989.

The Smashing Pumpkins
"Sequence IV" 31 May 1995
ANA-? > DAT > CDR-? > WAV [EAC] > WAV [WaveLab, FreeFilter] > SHN
http://www.spfc.org/band/studio.html?session_id=26

Known flaws: "twinkling" / crappy treble
dropout in Muzzle at 1:04
pops in Porcelina

In an attempt to make Sequence IV (a rough mix of MCIS' "Dawn to Dusk")
remotely listenable, I ran each track individually through FreeFilter
against its MCIS counterpart. It sounds a hell of a lot better, but it
didn't fix the clipping or the annoying 'twinkling' that probably
resulted from injudicious noise reduction.

I adjusted the preamp (I assume it was pre?) before applying the filter
in order to prevent clipping from the EQ process. I also adjusted the
volumes afterwards in an attempt to maintain the relative loudness of
each track on the disc. Some of the tracks seem a little bass-y, but
what the hell.

With that out of the way, I think this is an interesting listen. Several
of the tracks are nearly finished, but quite of the few tracks are
noticeably different. In general, some subtle instrumentation on the
final mix is more noticeable, and several of the instrumental takes are
slightly different.

::shrug:: Love it or leave it... hope I didn't screw anything up.
