I'm not wholly convinced that prettyspirals666 is an impartial player here, although I'm not casting doubt on any of the specific claims she makes here either. It's a bit difficult for me to understand the point she's making here, but it sounds like says just saying "this James guy was probably in contact with the original creator." Although her statement could also be read that she's implying that James was the original creator.
With regard to the sample, I think there is at least some evidence for the original creator seeking samples online. The creator has a now-removed post asking for a sample of a cowgirl mooing on GoneWildAudio, found here: https://old.reddit.com/r/gonewildaudio/c...rl_mooing/
I also know that despite how hard it is to get in contact with the creator, other people have claimed it. I believe that Bambi4eva has previously claimed that she got help mixing and editing files from the creator, however I'm not sure if any record of this still exists.
Figured would clarify. I don't know if he's involved or if he's the creator/knows the creator, and I haven't fixed my mind on either more than the other. Not knowing is what I don't like. Also, here is a video that I stitched with a few of the samples of my voice on there. At the time I hadn't started really making many files yet, and I've gone through everything I made that existed out in the public at the time before this file (superficial basic bitch) was released and the samples of my voice don't seem to exist in anything I did at the time/I also don't have them. I did say these things to my tist tho and remember when that was/that night pretty clearly.
I don't know if they are in contact knowingly or not, or if anything he said was true cuz he lied a tonnn. James could have just sent samples to the creator or posted something I didn't know he recorded somewhere and the creator found it...there are a lot of possibilities for how those samples got on there. The point of that original comment likera posted is that I don't know...and I don't like not knowing, and that mystery just taints the files for me a lot. I'm attaching examples of the mystery samples:
https://mega.nz/file/2gEEiLxZ#7zRdGOmwF_...wVjkEgJxgM
The audio in those clips that is the mystery audio is the stuff I'm saying like "I want to be a dumb blonde m/I am a dumb blonde." Also, sry it's video format I made that ages ago for a friend. No hypno on video, audio does have clips of BS files tho. But yea in the clips (to me) it sticks out when I listen to the file in its entirety/doesn't sound like it's recorded on a professional mic and I feel like it's given a lot of reverb to make it blend? Also, there is a part where I say something about being an airhead, but it sounds like there is more at the start that is almost like cut off that I can't even make out. Again, not knowing how my voice ended up on there, makes me very uncomfortable. I def didn't give consent for my voice to be used on the files, and no one reached out to ask for permission. Given that I was in an abusive dynamic at the time that file was released/I was frequently put in situations where my consent was violated, having something like that in the files, that I didn't give consent to be in there, feels extra gross. If someone ever randomly finds something with those samples of my voice dated to a time that is pre-release date of "Superficial Basic Bitch" would love to know cuz it would help narrow down how they got on there.
So yea, I have no idea if he is at all involved. All I know for sure is what he told me/that he lied a lot, and that samples of my voice are on there, and I don't know how they got there. I haven't made any assumptions either way, it's just something that stresses me out😕
I also have a text message where early on I'm confronting him about some issue and I mention something like "I know you made the files/know a lot about them, but I don't/I have no idea WTF I'm doing etc." In his response to my text with that included in it, he never said anything about that statement... There was never any response of like "why would you say I made them/that's not true" etc. In his response he just glossed over it as he often did when I mentioned it at that time... Also, that text isn't proof of anything either way (and again could maybe just be proof that he lied someday?) but I feel like most people would want to address that kind of statement if it was said to them, and it wasn't true, and he just didn't. To me, that just again...makes the mystery more frustrating and weird.
I'm mentioning this cuz I do have proof the topic came up in our discussions/I talked to him about what he told me, but again I don't have any proof either way about whether what he said about involvement in their creation was true and I'm not assuming one way or the other that he was/wasn't involved nor am I trying to imply he def was/wasn't involved cuz I literally have no idea. I just wanted to share why it's hard for me to listen to the files now/why I'm distrusting of the creator/this frustrating little mystery that further taints my own experiences with the files.
Edit: In case someone wants them, here are some timestamps in "Superficial Basic Bitch" for the samples of my voice linked/as discussed above:
*15:46- "so empty"
*26:09- "whatever/I am a dumb blonde..."
*26.26 - "I want to be a dumb blonde"
*27:08 "I am a dumb blonde"
*27:21- "dumb blonde"
