krisno Posted January 4, 2008 Share Posted January 4, 2008 Dear forum users. I have one big request. I live in scandinavia, and I try to get hold of the Grim Fandango Soundtrack as it is immensly good. I allready got the .mp3 version, but I am kinda a hifi guy, so I want this in full quality. It is very expensive/hard to get hold of this CD now. Is there anyone here who have the original Grim Fandango soundtrack CD and either: 1: Sell me their CD, i will pay with paypal for everything + a price we can agree on for the cd 2: (this probably is the one people would like), if any of you can make a complete 1:1 copy of the GF soundtrack audio CD, and send to me in scandinavia. I will pay for everything, preferbly via paypal also here. Thanks!! hope for reply'es. Kristian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZaXeriaw Posted January 4, 2008 Share Posted January 4, 2008 Hey there fellow scandinavian. I've tried to get the soundtrack the last two years, and it seems almost impossible to get, if you don't wanna buy it on ebay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VampireNaomi Posted January 6, 2008 Share Posted January 6, 2008 Another Scandinavian here. I don't have the soundtrack either and I don't really need it, but I wish you luck at getting it. Hopefully you can find someone who doesn't know what a treasure they have in their hands and is willing to sell it for a few bucks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Dando Posted January 6, 2008 Share Posted January 6, 2008 Hello there, welcome to the forums I don't have the soundtrack, but I did spend quite a sizeable amount of time searching for a copy, it seems near impossible to find though. Maybe I gave up to quickly, or easily =/ I have all the mp3 files, which I did burn onto a CD so I could listen to it on a stereo, that's good enough for me I suppose.

Thrik Posted January 6, 2008 Share Posted January 6, 2008 Yeah, I wouldn't mind the CD rips either. The mp3s we have on the site are of the highest quality I believe, but naturally no substitute for the very best. I think I know someone with the soundtrack CD so I'll try asking him if he can sort me out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krisno Posted January 7, 2008 Author Share Posted January 7, 2008 If you could ask your friend to make a digital 1:1 copy on that cd I would be very happy. it's not that far from england to norway. I will of course cover any expense :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krisno Posted January 10, 2008 Author Share Posted January 10, 2008 No hope to get the original CD, atleast a copy of it?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baja Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 I have ripped it as FLAC, if you'd be interested in that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krisno Posted January 11, 2008 Author Share Posted January 11, 2008 Baja! You have it ripped directly from CD to .flac? Did you use a quality ripper? Yes, I would like that the utter most. Then you don't have to burn it etc... Can I download it from you or how can we do this? Kris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CHAOSMAN Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 i have the original copy of the cd if you still want it and i can scan the covers, cd and make it like the real one if you want although it makes no difference really. email me at djnick [at]gmail.com and we can go from there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krisno Posted January 12, 2008 Author Share Posted January 12, 2008 I have send you an email. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thrik Posted January 12, 2008 Share Posted January 12, 2008 It'd be nice if you could get me a copy of the uncompressed music, CHAOSMAN. I'm not too bothered about getting a physical copy, but if uploading such a huge amount is a problem for you (I can provide the FTP) then perhaps that's not ideal. I'm not so much thinking for myself as providing better quality .mp3s on grimfandango.net, offering it in some other formats like .ogg and .wma, and also possibly hosting the uncompressed versions in the future once bandwidth is less expensive.

CHAOSMAN Posted January 14, 2008 Share Posted January 14, 2008 what format do you guys want it? I can rip it no problem, FLAC, OGG, WMA, Disc dump...whatever. Rapidshare ok for you guys? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krisno Posted January 14, 2008 Author Share Posted January 14, 2008 What is rapidshare? I would prefer WMA lossless, i have send you an email (and lets hope that Wmedia player finds the names of those files, it's 'alot' of them ;-).. Can you convert .wma back to cd/mp3 later on by the way? I have send you a mail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sallim Posted January 14, 2008 Share Posted January 14, 2008 Flac or OGG would be nice for me. Rapidshare is a *free upload portal, where you can upload files and other users can download them, mostly for free with small restrictions. http://www.zshare.net or megaupload.com would be ok aswell. thanks so far chaosman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thrik Posted January 14, 2008 Share Posted January 14, 2008 I can't speak for everyone else, but I think providing it in a format that's easy to work with such as an uncompressed dump (WAV?) would be the best. WMA, for example, is actively protected by Microsoft who try to shut down any programs that allow you to open/convert them. FLAC can be a bit tricky for people to work with if they're not familiar with it. OGG will be compressed. Etc! I could feasibly mirror it in smaller formats on grimfandango.net such as OGG and WMA once I've got the original rips. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CHAOSMAN Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 ok will rip it in WAV for thrik, flac for krisno and, OGG and WMA for the others, give me a few days so i can rip it and up it onto my server, then it will only be a few days on my server and then i will take them off because of bandwith. i request that the rips i do you guys mirror them onto free sharing hosts so that everyone can get them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silvek Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 Great, I've been looking everywhere for the CD as well! It would be great to get a hold of the uncompressed wav-files, will you make them available for everyone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CHAOSMAN Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 WAV, FLAC, and OGG all ripped, raring them now and uploading to my server, should be another day or so. If you want any other formats i recommend you download the WAV files and do whatever you want, i dont have time to learn to rip it in every possible format Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Isaac Posted January 16, 2008 Share Posted January 16, 2008 This is really helpful, thanks a lot for doing this . The uncompressed WAV files would be very useful Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
