My old mac died with all my footage on it sadly, so I'm going to be starting from scratch and improving existing content with my new PC. New PC is much more powerful anyway, but I'm sorta new to windows hence the extended break.
Expect content soon though, for now I'm going to be uploading the 'From a White Basement on the hill' Double LP to YouTube in full for the 20th anniversary of basement (as i don't see it anywhere on YouTube). If the original creator could contact me that would be great so I can give credit, and this channel is un monitised as I've mentioned previously, it will stay that way.
For those unaware from a white basement on a hill is closer to Elliott's original vision for basement, with original mastering, extra songs and its also a double LP. Some of these songs you may have heard before from old leaks but these are much higher quality. Sourced from 'The Moon is a Sickle Cell'.
Do be sure to support the estate (stream the 20th anniversary remaster once its released!) and the charities listed on the memorial fund page too, only if you can as always.

Here's a sneak peak at the DVD/Live Show/Etc archive we are working on. There is still a lot of work to do, but we're aiming to be able to release it at some point next week (hopefully). It will be accessible via google drive, and we will make perpetual backups to usenet, as well as a few other redundancy options, there's a lot of error checking to be done first as these files are directly from trade DVD's.
I'll link it on my community tab & on reddit once complete, as of right now we are at around 300gb in content (multiple formats of each file). So I'm guessing for Usenet and other methods we will split the collection up to some extent. Usually usenet lasts about 10 years, so somebody just has to upload it every 10 years. I'll try my best to do so for as long as I can.
I'll keep everybody updated though, and it would be amazing if a couple of people could get spare hard drives to store the final collection on and keep in storage in case anything ever happens to me, cause you never know at the end of the day.
(Quite a few performances are missing from that list currently its not final in any shape or form, and just to be clear these are not YouTube download/reuploads they are the source footage)

Just re-remastered the Yoyo a GoGo Performance, it's in full 4k now, the old versions still available unlisted and in the 'old remasters' playlist on my channel.
I'm working on the Bumbershoot one right now but its a lot more tricky, I've taken some time to improve my remastering skills hence the re uploads, but after Bumbershoot it will be all new content (Lucky three, Fuji Rock etc).
If anybody has the original recordings of any of Elliott's concerts please do drop me an email, as there's not much out there nowadays and I prefer to work fully from scratch. My email is ham-requests@outlook.com
Last thing is I'd like to remind everyone to support the estate in any way possible (the killrockstars vinyl reissues are very good for one).
Thanks guys

I'm doing some work on video remasters atm, lots of Elliott Smith to come. I took a small break so some videos will be re uploaded as I've improved my skills a bit.
