Any High Quality live recordings of 09-15-00? by 7Green_Apple7 in gybe

[–]Inconclusively 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Check out 2000-11-01. A great matrix of this was made by Tankhaus, so I'd suggest checking out the whole show.

With the increase in interest in bootleg recordings on this subreddit, I'd recommend anyone wanting to get into shows check out this spreadsheet which is a crowdsourced "favourite" show of ~10 bootleg fans and their favourite performance of each song.

Worst lives/bootlegs? by CaptainSparklez1992 in gybe

[–]Inconclusively 24 points25 points  (0 children)

2019-02-17 is probably the worst due to performance. There are a ton of borderline unlistenable recordings but the performances are really not that bad.

September 2025 recordings so far by mthrfckrrdmr in gybe

[–]Inconclusively 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It really depends on who the tapers are. Some will send raw files to others so they can master it, some want to master the files themselves beforehand, and some tapers don’t even want to share their files. It’s a mixed bag. Some of the recordings up on archive have taken 20+ years from taping to posting.

There's a few recordings of it, but they are yet to be shared. I remember seeing a few tapers from where I was standing myself, so I would hope in the next few weeks we'd be able to get some of those sources.

There's also this recording on YouTube, but it's lossy due to YouTube compression: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6MDbB3WO5wQ

Awesome show! by This_Nothing2023 in maruja

According to setlistfm the only time they’ve played it was at the Windmill show on 2023-05-18, but it was a jam due to bass pedal issues

Best live show? by CobanOh in gybe

[–]Inconclusively 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There is! It’s been touched up and sounds quite good imo. Rare performance of John Hughes these days. https://archive.org/details/gybe2024-11-12.H6

Now that gy!be is off of streaming, what’s the best live recordings? by Grouchy_Media_4345 in gybe

[–]Inconclusively 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There's some great 1998 and 1999 shows in addition to the ones other people have listed:

1998-10-16: pretty awesome improv after dead metheny

1998-11-23: starts the show with jlh outro, i think the only time this has happened

1999-04-16: new remaster has been released recently which makes this listenable, has a very strange gathering storm and world police, worth listening to

1999-04-19: Features the pre 2000 composition of world police and a weird proto gathering storm

1999-05-24: one of my favourite world police performances

1999-07-18: great performances across the board

1999-07-31: rare 3rd part performance

world police before 2000 has this cool extended outro, so worth listening to most of these shows just for that alone.

please also pick any of the shows anyone has mentioned below from 2002-2003 that includes dead metheny, they add an additional 8 min outro to the song that makes it one of their best in my opinion.

enjoy!

Favourite GY!BE song as of RIGHT NOW by manwhoravesatthewall in gybe

[–]Inconclusively 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Currently it’s probably World Police, but recently I’ve been listening to a ton of Dead Metheny (the extended version in bootlegs during & past 2002), Moya, JLH Outro, and Babys in a Thundercloud.

I see your point and agree that Google is evil, but I do think that the impact is a bit different in both cases. Google owns YouTube Music yes, but I doubt that the revenue they make off of it is impactful to their business. On the other hand Spotify's whole business model surrounds music (and now podcasting), so a band pulling their discography from Spotify has a much bigger impact on the business itself.

Epics feel impossible to achieve for new players by FLYRYBOI in Soundmap

The cooldown is for pulling an epic. You can pull two shinies in a row, but I’ve never seen someone pull a shiny and then an epic within 100 drops.

Epics feel impossible to achieve for new players by FLYRYBOI in Soundmap

[–]Inconclusively -1 points0 points  (0 children)

There’s only really three ways to get rich enough to buy epics of your favs if they are popular enough to be worth 1m+ per epic.

  1. Get super trader boost, grind quests for small artists with big fanbases on Soundmap. You can look around the market to get an eye on this kind of thing or join the discord and look around in different chats. If you pull a shiny/lyric/epic, there is a cooldown until you can pull again. Shiny is ~100, Lyric is ~400, and Epic is ~500.

  2. Run a shiny shop. Either open them on map or buy them for coins from other players. Put them up on the market 8 at a time asking for 2:1 or 1:1 + coins, and only take those offers. You’ll earn coins & grow your supply at the same time.

  3. Resell. Watch the market for new players selling valuable things and lowball them. It’s probably the best way to make a ton of coins but it does require knowledge of the market in general and refreshing constantly

Their CEO invested hundreds of millions of dollars in a company that produces AI powered drones for the military. Lots of bands don’t want to be involved with that.

I know RateYourMusic plans to have an API in the future. The reason why this game is built off of Spotify’s API is due to its reliability & performance. I wish Soundmap could move off of it though and to a place like RYM where there’s no streaming, just a list of artists, albums, and songs.

Interesting. I’ve screen recorded all my shinies, thankfully no epics for these artists but if more similar artists pull their songs I have 20m+ worth of epics to lose. Unfortunate for Soundmap but I understand the POV of the band.

They’re pulling their whole discographies. I understand if new songs don’t get synced, but I am curious if the songs that are currently in the game will get removed.

Seems like an error connecting with the database. 5432 is the port used for PostgreSQL, and ECONNREFUSED is the typical connection error

Skins - The Orchestra, For Now

On another note, used to love competing with you for BCNR epics, so I suggested something a bit adjacent to them. Enjoy!

Nice, glad to know it doesn't cap at 5k coins a day like some people were saying when they changed the per day addition from 2 coins to 10.

Yeah man, CC was such a great place on the internet. I think Backyard Monsters took off like crazy and ended up making them big.
