Welcome

elcome to the Digital Meltd0wn Music Blog. The aim of this blog is to introduce the readers to music that is out of print, commercially unavailable, released under a creative commons license, or with approval by the featured artist. The majority of the music posted here would be considered underground. Don't let that fool you into thinking that the music featured here might be any less enjoyable than that of the mainstream artists you hear on the radio, as this couldn't be further from the truth. Please keep in mind that the majority of the artists that appear on this blog, along with their respective record labels, are not wealthy and need your support. If you enjoy the material that you find here, please support the artists/labels by purchasing their material afterwards. If you are an artist/label that would prefer to have your material removed from this blog, simply leave me a comment, and I would be more than happy to promptly remove the offending post. In addition to running this blog, I also work on a few other projects during my spare time. You can find links to those, as well as a few other important links associated with Digital Meltd0wn in the menu bar above.

Hey, THANKS SO MUCH FOR THIS! I'm glad you had this Expanded Soundtrack and posted it! I'm also glad it has driven many people to your blog. I may have some info on where some of this music comes from. I have read that the very first version of the DVD for "The Thing" has an audio track with the isolated score. This is not listed on the DVD, but it is there. This is not on the more recent Collector's Edition of "The Thing". This is probably where it was taken from, although, I have not been able to find the original version of the dvd to confirm this, I only have the Collector's Edition. If I am incorrect and my memory is faulty, then this isolated score track may have been on some laserdisc version of "The Thing" I hope this helps you or anyone that may wish to make an even better version of the soundtrack!

@The Doc: Thank you for the additional information. I'm not sure what could be causing your problem, but unfortunately I don't have enough time on my hands to investigate it tonight. I have school in the morning and need to catch some sleep, but I'll be sure to check on this as soon as I possibly can. I noticed that no one else commented, despite the fact that this has already been downloaded a few dozen times. I may not be able to check on the problem till either tomorrow afternoon or later on in the night. Perhaps someone else can report in on this in the meantime, and either confirm your error, or report that they didn't have any problems. If you have downloaded this please leave a comment and let me know if you had any problems extracting the archived content.

Tracks 1,17,and 19 are damaged. I have used winrar, winzip, and 7-Zip to open the rar archive and the problem occurs with all these programs.

@The Doc: Again, I apologize for the inconvenience. I had hoped to be able to give you the opportunity to listen to this before Halloween ended. Unfortunately I already deleted the original archive that I uploaded, but I'm downloading this right now in an attempt to duplicate your error. I just want to make sure that the error didn't occur due to the download process. I am re-uploading it right now regardless though, and I should have it posted within a few hours.

@The Doc: I replaced the download link with a new one. If you encounter any problems please let me know.

The Doc said...

I downloaded the new archive and it works! Great job! Maybe I can come up with another request that drives as much traffic to your site! Thanks Again! Later!
