A few wonderful post-punk & Factory Records compilations. Made not by myself, but by this guy: Joshua Pfeiffer a.k.a Vernian Process (http://www.last.fm/user/VernianProcess/), musician and DJ from California. He really knows how to make a great comp. :)

I used to go to the Factory at the Russell club, where it all began.

I wish I'd taken a camera a bit more often, this is in the club, "Kleenex"!

These are great. But I cant seem to download them. The download starts as normal at about 50kb then drops to 3 kb then ends shortly after, all in all about 1 min after the start of downloading. Am i doing something wrong!!

These are GREAT..... Thanks for sharing them.

I must note though that the majority of the discs after being downloaded are comming up corrupted once you try to unzip them. Is anyone else having this problem?

BR

me too boyracer. truly disappointed.

The files only seem to download about 7mb and are then corrupted.

Any ideas nightandday? Don't mean to pressure you though as it was such a great offer. Cheers

I too thank you for your efforts but am truely dissapointed that none of the zips seem to work :( what a tease cause they all look great!

Same thing happened to me the first couple of times. When I tried later last night (Weds., ~1a.m. GMT), I got everything--both Factory Records Story ones, and all 8 double-discs' worth of the post-punk stuff. I'm on vacation right now and can't re-post them on a more reliable host, though; sorry! Try again late at night, and be warned that you have have a max of 4 active downloads at a time.

Thank you SOOO much Nighty:) What exactly made us deserve it?
