The Discussion of MJ's Unreleased Tracks

The multitracks ARE digitized and have been for more than a decade. Just the estate setting their standard of being the envy of all estates (as usual)

Yeah, I'm not really surprised that they didn't bother at all. You can tell just by listening to the demos, horrendous quality.

Well you get a lossless rip of the audio on the cassette, it's technically lossless for what it is, but the frequency range of the data on the cassette is limited and would be equivalent to a mp3's frequency cutoff range. ( Somebody else could probably phrase what i'm trying to convey better).

Also the audios on the disc have crappy CD mastering on them as i believe the same dude who mastered Bad 25 mastered Thriller 40 (correct me if i'm wrong).

Yeah, I just thought there'd be a cut off in the frequency in the actual files in an audio editor if the data just isn't there, I'm assuming it doesn't work like that when it's ripped directly from a tape then.

Yes recorded at ASCAP in 2003, but no idea if MJ vocally recorded the songs!

This song is one of my top searches. But I found nothing.

Yep, it's not like that at all with analog formats
cassette rips usually look like a lossless song, but the frequency quite literally rolls off at around 16kHz on the average cassette more or less, there's more data above those frequencies, but it's all just noise from the tape and not actual music.

This has been very informative, didn't know that, it definitely makes sense there'd be extra noise!

He said :

I've never been able to get a definitive answer on Far Far Away. Some say just a chorus others say just the title vocal and mumblings . Some times these titles or lyrics have ended up in other songs.
 
Why do you guys think Hot Street wasn’t included in Thriller 40? Will they save it for the next posthumous album, or will they save it for Thriller 50?

So you’re telling me that the estate has already digitized the master tapes for all of the Thriller outtakes, and yet they still decided to use crappy cassette rips for Thriller 40? That’s frankly retarded on their part, like what for?

What did he told you about other songs please u asked him many times i did not see his answer because he block me

I think they've held onto Hot Street and Niteline to try and repeat the success they had with LNFSG

Yes, I think it's probably because they see those tracks as stronger and want to keep them for whenever they decide to do something else.

Sunset Driver being on there is kinda weird imo. That one slaps so would think they'd want to reuse it.

Hot Street could be a strong song for a posthumous album. But I think they save the best unreleased song for Thriller

-Bad Company is sung by Tito Jackson.
-Power is sung by Jackie Jackson.
-Far Far Away is unfinished and it's unclear if the song only has a chorus or if it has a mumbling vocal.

Eddie Santiago journalist said this :
Several songs Jackson recorded for Bad remain unreleased: “Bad Company,” “Broken Chair,” “Buffalo Bill,” “Crack Kills,” “Get Back on Me,” “The Hunt,” “Tomboy,” “What You Do to Me.” One song, “Cheater,” was released on 2004’s

Can you ask Chris cadmen about get back on me .the hunt and tomboy ?

Yeah absolutely mate. Sunset Driver being on there still baffles me, I still think a lot of that vocal is from Off The Wall, but more importantly it had serious potential

Imagine what a producer like Brody Brown (Silk Sonic) could do with that track.

You have to be calm and patient. I'm not going to harass him with questions, he surely has better things to do. We must take advantage of the answers we have already had. Like the information on "Far Far Away" or all the information from Damien Shields. I've been researching for over a decade, and it's only been a short time since we've had so much information.
Just be a little patient :)

I don't know Eddie Santiago. And I don't think he heard those songs. We have information about these songs...

Chris Cadman thinks there's a full version of MJ on "Eaten Alive." Never heard "Get Back on Me" and "The Hunt"... Maybe a misspelling of the song "The Hurt"...

"Retarded" is quite literally the Estate's middle name. The executors recieved Fs on their archival and business classes, and they want to flaunt their lack of knowledge for all to see.

Weird. “The Hunt” couldn’t possibly be The Hurt, since it neither was recorded for Bad nor remain unreleased. But then, what song is this referring to?
 
It's a bit off-putting to me how people like Damien had the info for almost 10 years but decided not to share them until now. It's also questionable how he still doesn't give the entire info unless you ask the right question multiple times. Why not put every info he has on his website?

Yeah, it’s kinda crazy to me that he could single handedly right countless wrongs that have been circulating for years, but just… doesn’t. That’s a more valuable contribution than continuing on with the Cascio tracks. Obviously nobody is required to do anything, but why spend thousands visiting the US Copyright Office and taunting people with info if you aren’t going to do anything with it?

I guess for the same reason the estate would rather monetize every moment of MJs life. To keep people on a hook for ws long as they can gleam from it.
