Agreed. 

The sheep, well, do as sheep do.

You overstimate people. If radio content declines more then people will eat the new crap. We have seen it happen already, we will see it happen again.

What epeople my generation listens to around here is of the same
general quality as the low level party music they played at karaokes
full of drugged people who didn't pay attention to the music and only

wanted to get laid.

Listen to crap music, get laid?

Sounds like a pretty good exchange.

Since we were talking about 'new stuff'.   If anyone cares, attached is what i have in the jeep.

Sure i have lots more, but a lot of it really isn't car material, or just not stuff id listen to on a regular basis.  And a lot of dark-wave or more symphonic stuff needs earphones or a quiet room, not buzzing down the road with off road tires and a soft top flapping in the breeze. ( or no top.. which is actually quieter, but still too much for a lot of music ).

I think Hip Hop is the "music", and rap is the subculture about it.

I hate hip hop but nowadays I don't consider it the worst. When I was young everybody here listened to it. Now it sounds sophisticate in comparison to what I get from the radio.

New Throwing Muses single.  Didn't expect that.  I knew they were working on a new album but didn't think it was that far along.

Not extraordinary, but does still sound like them and is 'ok'.

Long story short:

 

A box of Zip disks that we think have music on some of them. They were recorded via a mixer with an integrated drive. It was used to record a guitar, so its analog.  I picked up a stereo to usb adapter, got it all fired up.  Shove a disk in and hit play. Nothing comes out.  Try the headphone jack. Still silence. We are assuming the mixer is toast. Its old, was stored in a garage for years. 

Thinking of buying a usb zip drive off ebay, but i have zero experience in trying to read a music disk on one. Never had a reason to try when i still had drives.  So i dont know if this will work at all.   Anyone ever tried something like this?

Can buy another mixer off fleabay, but its not cheap and will be useless after we copy over what is on these disks ( if anything ). So hassle of re-selling it.

 

( and yes, we are checking with the older local music stores, see if they can do that sort of thing, as well as musicians in the family, seeing if someone kept something like that around )

Well first attempt at the uncles place was not so good, but i did at least verify there were files on some of the disks, but wouldn't read it. ( but its an OLD machine with a old drive. and windowsXP was acting flaky ). So went out and bought a zip drive to have here and beat on them for however long it takes.  Turns out they are in some proprietary format that can only be read by some 20 year old windows software..  BUT the conversion app is still available for download from them, ( BOSS music ) and actually will run on win10.. .amazingly.

But 90% of them are corrupt so not getting much off.  Disappointing, but its still >0 so not a total loss.

I suspect the box was stored on a monitor ( music, not video ) and the voice coil did its damage )
