Automata songs

Post by MarkRJones1970 »

Has anyone got these in better quality than the files that have been online for donkey's years? They are obviously sourced from the game tapes and do sound a bit ropey.

I'd like to know if a better source has surfaced since? Maybe off the record (that is now out of print) and is for sale for a ridiculous price on ebay:

I'd like to replace the mp3s I have had for years with a set that sound a bit better that I got from here:

I went to Mel Croucher's website and found that he'd released all his music as a box set in 2017.

Sadly it looks like the company that released it went bust.

Using the title, I found this spotify page

I think you can probably take it from there :)

Thanks for that but I don't think you can download off Spotify. Shame though, seeing as you can't buy them anywhere.

How about this then?

You can buy the albums from amazon and download them as MP3s.

There are tools that will allow you to download Spotify and YouTube songs as MP3s (or other audio formats) but they're not exactly legit.

Ah yes, I didn't think to look on there. Those are what I'll get, I can download off YouTube. Thanks.
