Here is Nate's scrapped 2004 self-titled album that was previously un-mastered (until now :) ) I posted some of these tracks a while ago and people requested all the files so I uploaded them. This was mastered by me using professional equipment, give it a listen it sounds great. Just like you would find from a store bought CD.
There's two rar files and individual links to 5 songs for samples.

^^^^^
or Knoc's Landin' by knocturnal or Six-Two's Macoroni n G'z...those 2 albums are in big time need of mastering
-
Yeah these came out sounding really nice. Compression and dynamic range seldom go hand and hand, generally with more of one you have less of the other but I used some tricks to keep everything in balance.
You'll definitely need to listen to these on something better than laptop speakers, burn it to a CD and play it in any decent stereo and you'll hear the difference. Immediately you should notice the increase in volume on these compared to the originals and that should be discernible even on a laptop, but to appreciate the warmth/color, cohesiveness, punch and clarity you'll probably need something better. Also, if everything sounds just like any regular CD you would buy in a store then you've already heard the difference, that's what I did :)
Glad people liked it, I know over the years there's been a lot of other songs that leaked from the studio but never made it to mastering and most of those I no longer have. If people want to post them I'd deff give it a shot. Of course what comes out depends on how it sounds going in but for anything that sounds as good/close to this album then there's potential.
-

I don't have those. If you upload them I would absolutely play around with them. Also that old Snoop advance, The last meal I think, the one with "its so hard"? I think that one was straight from the studio.

I've been looking for this for a minute - thanks! ;D
Does someone know where to buy it?

Can anyone tell me what mastering a record means?
-
Can anyone tell me what mastering a record means?
Mastering is the last step in the creation process. It involves equalizing, compressing, limiting and a few other processes to make a record sound as loud and clean as possible without distortion. It also makes each song on the album have similar characteristics so it sounds the same.

Why wont part 2 extract?
^^ Don't worry about that. Props for this.
why are you disregarding it, let Efran make the call. The guy wasn't trying to point out a negative by asking why part 2 doesn't extract. I was wondering the same thing. The part 2 .rar only has one track titled "Right Back Where You Are", but many of us still want to hear it. Any chance part 2 can be fixed and re-upped? or better yet, since its only one track can it uploaded to zshare in mp3 format?

I can re-upload if you're not getting the full thing but the part2.rar shouldn't be an file you need to extract. Once you try to extract pt 1 it should automatically extract the pt2. It should be a package deal, like you shouldn't be able to extract one without the other. But if you aren't getting the last song I'll upload it just let me know. The last song is "Right Back Where You Are", if you have that then you have the whole thing.

I don't understand what that means. I extracted part 1 and I got 2 error messages. The first has the file name for track 17 and says "the file is corrupt". The second error says "Unexpected end of archive". I don't know how track 17 is supposed to auto-rip, can you provide some technical assistance please?

I undersnatd what you mean, cause I keep getting an error message now that reads "You have to extract a previous volume to unpack..., but im still having trouble, I don't know what you have to do to make it automatically extract the second part. Even when I highlight both parts 1 and 2 and extract at the same time I get the same error messages. Appreciate the help if you can upload the last song, maybe its just my computer.
-
Props Efrain, you definetly got an ear for this, sound quality is great.
-
Efrain major props for this, props to vance for the covers also.
-

Yo Efrain have you ever tried mastering tracks like Next Episode OG (probably impossible) and Can't C Us by Tha Dogg pound?

Never tried. It wouldn't do anything to Next Ep og, maybe Can't C Us but not much. The end result really depends on the inherent audio quality of the recording before I do anything to it. The equipment can make very good to good quality recordings sound great but it can't make average to low quality recordings sound great, or even good really.
Glad you liked it though :wavey:

good lookin out on the extra traccs
anyone have the other traccs in zshare? (the remainin part of the albu)
thanx in advance

propz on the links, but can you do me a huge favor and put Part 1 on Megaupload maybe? Part 2 downloaded fine for me but for some reason Part 1 isn't finishing for me, an error keeps happening

these tracks have nothing to do with the album. Dead Wrong is from Ms. Jade's Album, What Would You Do is from Mariah's record and the other one probably on one of the other artists albums, too ...they were just added cause the songs are from the same time period
-
MOTHERFUCKIN PROPS!!! This album is too dope! How did you get it?
He mastered it himself. And he did it well. He deserves another prop for that.
-
Top work and top props.
-
burned it to cd and listened to it on my headphones last night ... sounds REALLY good! great job ...just wonderin why you decided to up it in 224kbs instead of 320?
-
+1 for this Efrain, but a mere prop doesn't do you justice... MAJOR respect man!

Props. Sounds real good man. I'm going to jack the links for my shelved album hookup thread if you don't mind.
