Looking for all releases.
If possible, upload all in 1 rar. Thanks in advance.
Ps: AKST020 is a faulty contribution on this Discogs page.

Searched for some scene release names to make it easier. But any other versions, if they exist, are good as long as it is vinyl.

Can you remember where you downloaded them? All tracks are CBR 192kbps and do not match the corresponding scene-releases. They do sound from vinyl though.

I know I said that any other versions are ok but you uploaded them in folders with scene-release names while none of the mp3's have the same filesize compared to what I found on www.srrdb.com

Maybe you re-encoded them to lossless & back to mp3 ( CBR 192kbps )?
Most ( if not all ) MP3's from vinyl ( scene or non-scene ) are VBR. So, having anything from vinyl in CBR always looks suspicious.

The first 2 releases ( AKS001 & AKS002 ) doesn't seem to have the correct CRC32 codes.
The last 3 releases ( AKS003, AKS004 & AKS005 ) have correct CRC32 codes so they are OK.
AKS001 & AKS002 come close ( filesize ) to the ones on srrdb but have different CRC.

Can I ask you where you downloaded them ( the releases you uploaded most recently )?

I hope you understand what the term CRC stands for?
If not, you can read more about it here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclic_redundancy_check
When you open a rar or zip with winrar for example, you can see multiple columns.
- Name
- Size
- Packed
- Type
- Modified
- CRC32

It's the last one that have to match the ones being displayed on the release being found on www.srrdb.com
If they do not match, the files have been changed in some way and therefore chances are high they have been up/downconverted.

Like I said in my request: "But any other versions, if they exist, are good as long as it is vinyl."
Ok, but not if they are up/downconverted since that always means quality loss.
If the folders in your first upload weren't named after the specific scene-releases I wouldn't have checked them on srrdb in the first place and this whole conversation wouldn't have taken place.
But now I know the existence of this website I always check to see whenever I download something that is scene stuff. As long as it is contributed of course.

I hope you understand what I'm trying to say. I truly appreciate your help & definitely don't wanna be a pain in the ass :S

AKS001 & AKS002 i have not so ;)

Ok nevermind, I'll make seperate requests for the first 2 releases :P
Anyway, thanks again for all the effort!
