Depending on what you brought, most of the sets were online that people had ripped and shared for free on forums

Jesus wept, its like an episode of True Crime!

Your mate was called out for bullying here on the forums and rather than just leave it at that Your digging up stuff from 15 years ago and make it relevant to today, trying to make an issue where there isn't one

The only relevance is 15 years ago it was the same bunch of people wanting to gatekeep mixes.
The mixes on Moxser have not been lost to accident or hard drive crashes, they are there for people to enjoy for Free!
Can You not get Your head around that its a good thing or would You rather people beg for a password to listen to a 30 year old mix.

I get messages from people daily thanking me for helping them hear a piece of music they thought they would never hear again, nothing you say could ever sour that!

I was just pointing out the facts to the fella above that you now stream for free, but he could of probs got um free anyway, or is that to hard for you to work out or get your head around??????

I never said Moxser was a bad thing, but I did say I dont agree that you sold other peoples rips, and I stand by that and also anyone else who does it.

And for the second time I don't get people to beg for passwords, anyone who asked for one got it straight away from me, how come you never asked for any passwords? or even thank people for the sets you took/take?

In fact I put two Boxed: sets up on here the other day with NO passwords, I'm surprised you haven't grabbed them already.

I haven't actually downloaded anything from here in Years, I cant remember the last time I did.
Its only because I don't have the time and that Im sure a couple of people I trade with visit here and I end up with the mixes through block trades.
Ive 80 thousand mixes on the site right now and another 200 thousand to process and add which is taking up most of my free time.
When I redid the site last year I had to rebuild the database twice and that has cost me a ton of time and a ton of work, hopefully I should have most issues sorted by Christmas and my plan then is to concentrate on Djs and Venues, try and tidy up collections etc...

Here are the Boxed mixes Ive added so far, cant think when I last did any work to the collection so I don't know what else I have on my drives

Boxed

All the Clubs, Parties, Raves, Venues, Festivals... All the DJs, All the mixes..... The aim is to collect, verify, preserve and stream dance music mixes

Back in the day I actually downloaded most of the mixes listed on the web server at deephouse.biostat.wisc.edu which also doubled as a file repository.
The files were served from 3 servers in total. The web server itself and two more ftp servers jukar.biostat.wisc.edu and rose.biostat.wisc.edu.

If you go to archive.org you can see the old pages from deephouse.biostat.wisc.edu, where it all started and gman wrote Deejay, Title, Date (if known) and a sometimes very long descriptions of the mixtape. He continued to do so up to about #580, then he stopped doing that and you only saw Deejay, Title, and Date (if known). Most dates are in the format of mm/yy or mm-dd-yy, mm-dd-yyyy. Some filenames have the year and month too.

A week ago I went to my basement to check up on my CD-R disc backups. And on disc 695-714 are 13.5 GB of DeepHousePage material.
Now the way I downloaded back then was not through the interface on the webserver, so I have discs covering each ftp server, without descriptions, just the files.
And get this. There were more files on the ftp servers than was linked to on the webpage of DeepHousePage.
I estimate I have about 2,3GB files extra - mixes that gman did not intend for us to click on and listen too, or he did not get around to it.

Doing webarcheology using archive.org which has the pages with information and links to the music, which do not work, I have loads of files from my old backup to match to the filenames in the web server links.
And it seems I am pretty well covered from early mixes to about #735. After that it gets spotty.

History of DeepHousePage - with apologies to people who know better, this is what I can reconstruct looking back from my chair in my kitchen in Denmark.
Some time in the 1990s gman opens up his tape exchanging as a web server, There are a few layout differences over the years, in the beginning he posted 50 mixes at a time on a page. Then later #151 - #303 on a 4th page. And later an even longer list going up to #589.
In late 2000 he advertises clicking on a link to www.DeepHousePage.com and from then until about 2008 that is where it is at.
From 2008 to 2015 everything moves again to www.dhpmixes.com which retains some links pointing to older servers or maybe folders of respective servers.
From 2015 there is no more.
Archive.org does not have the mixes per se. So it is definately not a point and click adventure going to Archive.org, but I recommend it if you're bored and want to read up on the mixes. Especially the oldest before #589 are a real treat, almost as if gman is talking to you.

I have matched files against links and as per 2015 last time Archive.org crawled the site, there were 59 mixes either "removed" or simply not listed - if my memory is correct mix #154 should be listed between #153 and #155 but the #154 mix is not mentioned at all.
I sigured with some luck the 59 mixes may have been up o nthe page for some time before gman took them offline. And indeed going back and fourth on the stored pages I found information about 18-20 mixes, so we know what should be there *and their filenames*.
And to my amazement I have 10 or so "removed" mixes on my disk right now.

Is there any interest in piecing together all we can from DeepHousePage and make a collection of both webserver information as well as all the files (not the streams) I can imagine m4a or mp3 to be more well accepted.
In case you wonder - I have not converted my files as VLC seems to serve them up with pleasure.
This is my source for research on the old site and its evolution itself:

My backup CD-R 695 also holds the remainder of a backup of GottaHaveHouse.com, which means I have 4,5 CD-R with GottaHaveHouse.com files, but that is a story for another day - I have not researched the files but they do carry more meaningful filenames. And there are good mixes in there too.

Sorry for the long post. I have attached a view of 808 files - it is a work in progress.
