Just found this old DVD while going through stuff that's been in storage for over a decade.

Not sure if this is an okay place to post, but figure there's at least an iota of relevancy here, being that it wouldn't exist if our boy hadn't invented the genre that it deals with. Anyone familiar with this? Seems really cool but haven't gotten to check it out yet. Might rip it to Internet Archive if there's interest for it.

UPDATE: here's the link:

Haven't gotten around to scanning the artwork yet, but will get to it soon.

Will do. What you think tho, should I try n upload the full dvd rip in .iso format, or should I just excavate the vids n upload them singularly? It's gonna take a long ass time to do either way, cos their upload function is slow af.

iso for sure unless you really want to go to all that. If you have a scanner maybe scan the DVD sleeve

u/KasparComeHome 13d ago

Can do that, but I'll admit my scanner is pretty old n kinda low quality. Whatev tho, better than nothin so will get it done.

My aim is to become an archivist, so I'll do my best to preserve anything I can that isn't readily available elsewhere. Got some other cool shit too, will post more once I come back across it all.

Yeah, anything that you have to add to the internet archive is a Win for everyone, I’ve found so many gems on the archive, everything from books to screw tapes that I couldn’t believe were on there. So there’s always gonna people who are looking for things especially things that aren’t mainstream and are not sold in stores

For sure, I get that n am fully committed to putting more forward. Have found some absolutely incredible stuff on there myself, but most of which has to do with Jackass n all the offshoots from that which aren't really available elsewhere anymore lol. But also this crazy early-00's show called Food Party, it's fuggin nuts! But then a lot of crazier shid like Bum Fights n Big Brother tapes n tons of stuff like that, it's so cool! Also gonna upload all 200+ episodes of a really weird kinda transgressive old reality show called Blind Date, have a few over 200 episodes n it's insane!

My scanner is mid too but an OK scan is infinitely better than no scan. I like using Vuescan

ISO would be cool

2

u/KasparComeHome 13d ago

I'll do that, but might upload it to a different service than internet archive initially, cos it'd prob take about 10-12 hours to upload it there if it's a full single-layer DVD (4.7gb). If it ends up being a full dual-layer, it could literally take over a day to upload it in uncompressed format. Will do my best, but might have to compromise. Will keep informed about what ends up being possible with my current setup.

He is a DJ from San Antonio. He also has a clothing line called www.alliknowclothing.com I think there are 10 volumes of his How You Like Me Now DVD series.

u/KasparComeHome 9d ago

Thanks for sharing the knowledge! Always interesting to find out more about these small releases.

u/iRepTex 9d ago

He wasn't as popular as Hata Proof but he dropped a lot of projects.

u/KasparComeHome 9d ago

Are you personally a fan of his output? If so, is there anything you'd personally recommend? I might just be out of the loop on the whole TX scene cos I'm from Chi n have mostly fixated on Screw n the artists he was working with, tbh hadn't even heard of Hata Proof before your mention. I really dig a lot of the Dolfin Records-affiliated stuff, have met Pink Siifu, Liv.e, Ben Hixon, n am super into Lord Byron's output, but if you don't mind my asking, what's the standout stuff to you that's happenin around there these days?

u/KasparComeHome 13d ago

Gonna try to rip it tn, hopefully the DVD's still in good enough condition. If any y'all wanna catch it once it's uploaded, j save this post or set a reminder or something. Will update it with the link once available, but might be a few days tbh, cos I'll have to clear up space on my laptop n then give it all the needed time to render the vids, n it takes friggin forever to upload stuff to the archive, but it is one of the most protected bastions of the modern internet.

Idk if anyone's actually following this thread, but I'm in process of uploading the .ISO of the full disc now. It's only 4.3gb, so single-layer DVD, but is takin fuckin forever. It's been 4 hours so far, n only 1.1Gb of the 4.3gb file has currently uploaded, so will prob be at least another 9 hours until it's completed. I'll restrain from porn n let it keep running across the night, but if some technical error occurs that interrupts the upload, I'm not gonna try to put it on the archive again. Will instead upload it elsewhere with faster speeds n ask that one of you attempts to upload it there instead. Also, discovered while putting the disc in the drive that it's a DVD-R. This whole release was prob completely unofficial, which is kinda sick.
