Mic in Track
Barry
I love juvenile semi-coherent home amateur recordings done on cheap microphones, so I’m loving this right now:
Stark Effect - mic in track – a collection of mp3s accidentally shared through file sharing - a ‘mic in track’.
Here’s the description from Stark Effect:
A “mic in track” is a recording made on a PC using MusicMatch Jukebox, a music utility packaged with many new PC’s that allows the user to record from the microphone input of the PC’s sound card and save the recording in mp3 format. The default filename is “mic in track” followed by a number.
If that user also happens to be running a file-sharing program (WinMX, Audiognome, Kazaa, etc.), and shares the directory in which the mic in track is stored, then these personal recordings can be easily downloaded from the user’s computer. The vast majority of them are either silent or uninteresting, but many are like Christmas presents giftwrapped in nondescript serial numbers. They represent unique examples of audio vérité.
I’ve listened to a couple tracks Why Is My Sister Such a Dumbass? (0:46) and Bunnyrabbits, Satan, Cheese and Milk (2:18) — and they are great.
Thanks, CohenMasta, for the link and hat tip to Joshua Bearman’s LA Weekly blog.
