Thanks for posting this collection, joakim95.

Thanks!
Never heard volumes 11-12-13 before.

I guess this is all Orange Power Instrumental albums that have been released.

EDIT: As I posted, joakim posted about the guessing if this all the Orange Power albums. Coincidentally, I was writing up this story why there is no more Orange Power Music 8]
ORIGNAL POST: Volume 13 is interesting but upon tagging procedure I found absolutely no traces of that album anywhere.
Just in case you are not so familiar with Orange Power member Fritz Köberl - a recording studio owner and a very well-known name amongst the German/Austrian scene and also subject to many tracks shared and requested here - was murdered with four headshots on May, 22nd 1992 after he was lured into a Budapest appartment, drugged by a female accomplice that was a look-alike of his former love. When asleep, he's been assasinated by Helmut Frodl, cut into 17 pieces and his remains put into trash bags which were later found by a homeless..
Köberl figured out that Helmut Frodl - the main guy behind that murder plot - was corrupt and fraudulent and planned to report Frodl to the police.
The tags in the album say it's from 1992 - of course not a problem if it has been produced in the first half of that year before the murdering of the Orange Power member. But obviously, Orange Power ceased to exist and there are no further (mentioned) releases after 1991. This is why their 13th album is a bit odd to me. I have two tracks I'd like to add to my collection but if the tags are unclear, I am somewhat reluctant.

Wow, what a fascinating yet gruesome back story which I see Austrian media has described as "probably one of the most spectacular murder cases in Austrian criminal history". Who'd have thought library music could be such a risky business. Thank you Psyclon, I think!! ;)

dl only for premium members :P

Yes, the murder of Fritz Köberl made quite the headlines here. Helmut Frodl had been with the Austrian public broadcaster ORF since his childhood and went on to anchor the popular show Ohne Maulkorb. Later he became an independent director and film producer and took advantage of his long-standing status with the ORF to outpace competitors in respect to the awarding of contracts for commercials. He did that by bribing a senior official at ORF. Apparently Köberl found out about it and it cost him his life. It's amazing that someone would go to such lengths and commit a gruesome murder over some advantages to produce commercials. Quite a case for Lt. Columbo.

Hi , is there anybody who could post this in a regular DL program.?
It seems very interesting but this link is only for Premium users. :( :(

I was pretty shocked that one of the people who made the music I listen to a lot was tangled up in such a mess...
Quite a case for Lt. Columbo.
Ah, one more thing... your updated avatar is neato!

Thank you. Btw, Frodl was released in 2009. He got a degree in theology during his prison term. Reminds me of the "Cannibal of Rotenburg", Armin Meiwes, who became a vegetarian in prison.

What a joke that is.
Greed, corruption and murder. That guy is even more twisted.
EDIT: I have the download still intact on my computer, but it is saying 1.0 GByte on Windows but 1.01 GByte on Mediafire - and their limit is 1 GByte. D'OH!

I have fixed the link now and uploaded them to Google Drive instead :)

The 13th of their albums remains a shady data-wise. Searching the web takes it from literally dozens of "Orange Power" results it turns to "hearing aids" or "orange power cleaners for bongs", meaning absolute garbage results. To be honest, I doubt this was an official release; maybe this is an ARCADIA mashup?

I don't know why you think this is not an official release?
I guess this is released in early 1992.

I told you why I believe it's strange just in the quote...
There is ZERO trace on the internet about that album - weird for an official release, innit?. Absolutely nothing. Nobody else apparently owns this disc on any websites but have dozens of their other albums, and as soon as you add "13" to the many search strings I tried, it turns from "Oh, yes Orange Power 1-12 and Sound Giants and whatnot" to "Orange Power super cleaner and hearing aid batterie 12-packs" with 0% relation to the actual Orange Power music band. You open a webpage - even Japanese ones - and you browse through all the familiar Orange Power albums. Except for the elusive 13th. Also, just to add a bit more spice, having it is an AAC is also a rare thing - a lossy codec you gotta pay for due to the Fraunhofer royalty fee.
This music exists obviously, but I still wonder if they didn't market it as ORANGE POWER (label) and rather not market it under that name due to the circumstances. I would be happy to be corrected ASAP or in future though as there are two tracks which are bangers! But without credible data I can't add them to my database.

I understand what you mean but there is albums that are not listed on Discogs etc.
Even if it's not not listed there is doesn't mean the album does not exist.
Orange Power Instrumental 11-12 was not listed on Discogs like 5-6 years ago.
