    nono, only 2. 2013 (electric with BBF guitar and Axl bg vocals) and 2019 (acoustic with Tommy only).

    you might find some "2013 version without BBF guitar" but that one is fake, made by removing the BBF guitar channel and mirroring the other channel - creating a fake stereo song (technically dual mono track). but that one is "fanmade" (and I remember that back in 2018 that one really "leaked", but was proven to be a fake, created the way I described).

    Ahh!! Okay that makes sense.  I do remember that now.  I discarded it due to the fact that it was just a simple Audacity edit :lol:

    No worries. :) hard to keep track of everything these days!

    The one from last year is exactly the same as the 2013 one except just a few lead guitar licks are missing. You’re not missing much.

    Hmm, interesting.  First I heard of that version.  I do have the 2013 version that was "remastered" or mixed so that the guitar track wasn't isolated.  But I don't consider that an actual leak, just a remaster/remix.

    yes, I can, but it's a hard job. I have some notes and my guesses, based on ID3 tags left in the leaked files - but I got informed that those might be wrong, so... the text below is just my guess and not really neccessarily close to truth :) 

    anyway, sheet updated again and reworked at many places, reorganized for even better chronological flow, and the "1998-2001 leaks" have been temporarily placed right below the Village discs tracklists, until we have confirmed which of the tracks they match.

    ====

    Prostitute v2 says Track 5 which likely matches Track 5 at Rough Mixes 1
    Catcher says Track 2 on the same disc as IRS, which is completely wrong. it probably is in fact Track 7 from Rough Mixes 1
    Silkworms only exists as Track 10 at Rough Mixes 1
    IRS says Track 6, which might be the Track 6 from Rough Mixes 3
    Jackie Chan/HS must be Track 7 from Rough Mixes 3

    Going Down is probably Tommy Demo #2 from the Robin/Tommy demo disc, at least according to 3$P

    The Blues is Track 9, which might be Track 9 from New Brain Drums CD, labeled 9. "The Blues"-Old Josh Drums, or less likely Track 9 from Rough Mixes 1
    Chinese Josh is I think Track 7 from New Brain Drums CD, labeled as 7. "Chinese Democracy"-Old Josh Drums
    Rhiad says Track 11 which might again be 11. "Rhiad"-Old Josh Drums from New Brain Drums CD

    Prostitute v3 says Track 3, which might be 3. "Prostitute" from New Brain Drum Remixes with Axl CD

    TWAT says Track 1 so it might be either Track 1 from the TWAT disc 1 (Rough Mixes of New Brain Drums), or Track 1 from the TWAT disc 2 (Brain Drum Remix With Snare Sample From Silkworms), less likely Track 2 from Rough Mixes 1

    Chinese Stew might be Track 4 at Chinese Democracy disc, labeled 4. Guitars up 2.5 dB, Drums at Regular Level

    The old TWAT leak from DJ Razz is hard to guess - common sense says it should be Track 2 from Rough Mixes 1, but the track length doesn't match.
    Same with old Catcher leak from 2006 - we only know of one version that is on the discs, but the old leak sounds like even older version or alternate take - it's missing some additional guitar for example. It's impossible to tell which of the two Catchers come from the Village discs, until the discs leak.
    IRS from DJ Razz has been made redundant because it was replaced by the exact same IRS now but with massively better quality.
    Old "Checkmate" leak has first been made redundant by the original Hardschool leak, and now those two were made redundant by the more recent Hardschool ("Jackie Chan") which has slightly better quality.

    The 3 "2001 leaks" reportedly also come from late 2000 or so, and TWAT has been made redundant by the last wave of leaks, because they are the exact identical track but in a little better quality.

    The 3 "BBF guitar demos" also reportedly come from late 2000, but it's impossible to match them to any of the known tracks in this lot

    This is fantastic - thank you for putting this together and being so detailed.  Helps me remember what has happened, especially in the 2000s.

    Ok, I compared them now, one to one. Bass sounds different in this 6.6mb version and when all instruments and vocals are playing sound is a lot less trashy and messy. 
    However, there are some differences in the frequencies. For most part they look very simmiliar but in a few moments a little bit different. Looks like the one in 5,5mb version has less high frequencies. Weird.

    I compared them as well, the waveforms look identical (once you match them up, since one is shorter than the other).  At first I thought they sounded different, but the more I analyzed them and listened, I think it was just placebo.  I think they are identical.

    EDIT: Also, it's higher in file size because it has an album art embedded in in the id3v2 tag.
