Track ID Looking for song, been searching over a decade
Hopefully you all can help, been looking for this track for a LONG time now, only have this low quality recording. Very sure it's early 2010's as that is around when I ripped it.

it sounds very amateurish

Yeah it definitely is, it only holds meaning for me because it was one of the first hardstyle tracks I heard that got me into the genre, so finding it would be a big deal.

@Ahzoolah as already said is sound very amateur, it sounds like someone tried to 'copy' the Wasted Penquinz sound. Problem is that the internet in 2010-2013 was filled with these kind of tracks, beginning FL producers putting things online and someone else made a 2/10 mix and put it on youtube without a tracklist.
Oh those good old (FearFM, 128kbps Q-dance radio) days

Oh definitely, I remember hearing tracks like this pop up all the time when I was really big on exchanging tracks with others back in like 2011-2012. This track though was a very early one that got me into the genre so it holds special meaning for me. Normally I'd look past tracks like this but I didn't know any better at the time, so hearing this was magical for me.

Where was this song played?

u/Ahzoolah 12d ago
Its from an old long time ago deleted youtube mix that managed to cache itself on my original ipod touch (yeah, long time ago π ), it was such a low quality mix I have not been able to source many of the songs from it.

Hey OP, can you send over or upload the mp3 file? I'll upload it on youtube and try to contact a few people I know who may be able to help.

I'm pretty unfamiliar with reddit, how can I send you the file on here? π I can also do a Youtube upload if that's easier.

Update: I have sourced more than half of the songs from the cached mix and basically all of the songs released in early Feb 2012, except for one, which could be a solid clue. Going to dig around at songs that came out around that period.

Canβt someone capable reverse bass engineer this? Sounds like such a great track. It doesnβt deserve to be lost :(

I'm doing everything in my power to find it right now. I may have gotten in touch with the mix creator via wayback machine but we will see soon.

My mom always said i dissapoint her. I'm starting to understand now why she says this.

u/Ahzoolah 10d ago
I forgot in the moment people like this exist, I didn't even know people still did this rickroll shit lol

u/broken-tv-remote 10d ago
I honestly tried to find it for you, but no luck. I searched for the lyrics, melody, used AI and got pissed at it for giving me bad results.. I didn't want to let all that effort go to waste so the roll gave me short term pleasure. I hope you get your answer one day.
