*** The Firstcom Discontinued CDs Project: All help needed! ***

[godzfire]

Firstcom is notorious for being one of the worst labels for discontinuing their albums, leaving many to end up being forever lost media. In the hope of preventing that, I am attempting to put together all discontinued CDs possible in one single source; lossless if possible, or high quality mp3 if no other option. It doesn't matter if the rip/copy of files is yours or not, the goal is to just get A COPY.

I am asking the community's help to hopefully make this a reality. Thanks to some select members here already, a huge amount has already been or tentatively secured, but there's still a long way to go. I am working on making what is collected available, but the task to properly tag everything with metadata is going to be ungodly long for a single person.

PLEASE SHARE AND SPREAD THIS TO ANYONE YOU MIGHT KNOW THAT COULD HAVE COPIES OR KNOW PEOPLE/LOCATIONS THAT MIGHT

FC-A104 - No Limits (I've released this album before. You can download it.）

librarymusicthemes.com/index.php?topic=9827.msg66530#msg66530




The following albums were released by FirstCom in collaboration with “The Music Library”.

They have the same title and album number.

Which means that if you can get a copy of The Music Library's release, you're good to go.

And most of these are on Retro Matic's website, so you can contact him.




FC-A109 - The Winning Team

FC-A76 - The R&B Album

FC-D9 - Dramatic Atmospheres 1

FC-D17 - Tones and Textures

FC-D22 - Dramatic Rhythms

FC-D33 - Caring

FC-E17 - Atmospheric Journeys

FC-E19 - Ocean Song

FC-S16 - The Blues Album

FC-S49 - The Comedy Album

FC-S55 - The String Quartet Album

FC-U32 - Rhythms, Grooves & Riffs

FC-U58 - Pastimes

FC-U76 - Seasons - Spring - Summer

FC-U97 - New Grooves



And these albums, which a friend of mine in China once released, you can find them.

Unfortunately the password for many of the uploads aren't working.

Yeah, I wish the old password for all albums is being used again, but i appreciate that.

In reality, “Retro Matic” has moved on from LTM.
He's now focused on his own website, selling CDs and seeking sponsorships.

I haven't been in touch with him for quite some time. He seems very busy lately, and as far as I know, others haven't been able to reach him either.

However, LTM shows that he logged in as recently as January 2nd this year.

Oh, that's interesting. I didn't noticed that. Thanks for letting me know, Chun.

Ok. Hopefully this will be appreciated. I realize these are 320 MP3 files but this was on the list of discontinued Firstcom CD,

Firstcom 517B - 2001 CHILDS PLAY

https://www.idrive.com/idrive/sh/sh?k=b0d9a5s3g5



That's the best available as of the present time. If someone has a better copy by all means. I'm only saying appreciate, because we had a gentleman awhile back, who complained that my uoloads weren't in FLAC. I know that's only a very small percentage of people complain , but this guy took it to the exreme. You are no entitled to anything library related unless you own the copyrights or paid for a copy. Sorry just frustrated with life and was thinking of how many people have mistaken my kindness for weakness as of late.

[godzfire]

That's actually the reissue which is still available on UPM's site (S17B). The original S17 is the one we don't have. Thanks for trying though.

[joelfan71]

No problem. Always willing to help if possible.
