The Brad Sunberg Seminar Leak/Theft of 2023

not counting on the estate here. the next thing for them is another compilation album, with some remixes by kygo and a soundtrack done by DJ Khaled feat. Drake.
(to compete with Ceelo Green feat. Eminem)
 
Well...let's think of this the other way around. What if the history vocals got leaked only with this & not a few months back... it would've been a way way worse situation as well. I guess timing is really everything
 
Can anyone post a list of everything that was leaked from Brad's computer ? Please.

Love the fact that this implies that we got the short end of the stick here with the other laptop lol
 
Part of me is happy for Brad that the unheard content hasn't been stolen or else it would've been too damaging for him but the other part of me is also sad/angry because listening to Turning Me Off, TYLA, Man In Black and other new songs in HQ would've been mad lol
 
What happened to the thief, has he been already caught?

Not sure if all of this would've been on the other laptop, but yes Brad is in possession of a lot more material, he has a lot of stuff that isn't on this list, those Tape/DAT scans were just ones he did for his Halloween costume.

If I can afford it, I'll go to one of his shows and suggest something like "Homeless Bound" or "Turning Me Off." That way, I can bring my notes to you guys without having to illegally record anything or steal Brad's stuff.

Homeless Bound isn't anything interesting, no MJ vocals, just a long boring repetitive piece.
 
AdeZ said:
"Boots Groove" would be a nice one, if my memory serves me right it should have a complete lead vocal.

It was played in the seminars at least once, wasn't it? It's weird that there's barely any info on it, the only thing I could find is that it's supposedly similar to Get On The Floor.

I know it was played more than once, a friend of mine has heard it, but this was years ago. Brad seems to have stopped playing that since a few years now. The comparison with Get On The Floor is close enough.

Wasn't Man In Black played at a Bryan Loren seminar or some sort of event involving him? Not sure if Brad has anything to do with it but I could be wrong.

No, Brad owns a copy of the song, I don't think he possesses the latest version of the song though.

Ah I see, probably wouldn't be on his other hard drive anyways since he never used for his seminars as far as I know
