Maybe there is a flac version of the original broadcasting at The Mixing Bowl, I'll check later.

Edit: Nope, no luck.

This is being rebroadcast on BBC Radio 1 tonight at 1am BST. Any chance somebody could record it please as WAV/FLAC/320kbps? https://www.facebook.com/sasha/photo...946919/?type=3

I doubt that there ever was a FLAC file to start with. A few years ago I did wonder if it would be better recording it through Sky Tv instead of from the Radio 1 website, but I could never be asked to find out. Radio 1 is broadcast on Sky.

there is a tong-less version but it is 192 mp3 as well.

I'm afraid that's the only version available. Despite what people think of the Maven era nowadays, I liked the mix.

My version is basically the broadcast as-is from Radio 1 on 31 May 2020 (if you combine the ISO BMFF media segments). Whether it sounds better, I've no idea.

It looks like this if I open it with the Spek tool:

If Radio 1's archives are coming from their original Digital Audio Broadcast (DAB) I've no idea... Keep in mind that in 2005, DAB was basically just MP2 audio codec, and DAB+ came later after 2007 which was based on HE-AAC v2 (AAC+). Don't expect much!

Like I wrote, I don't know if it sounds better, but I think this version is not available anywhere else except here: Cloud

That was just ripped from the Japanise bootleg. Someone tried to remove the voice overs using software.

Sky+HD receivers and Sky Q boxes have an optical audio output. I guess the quality would be then pure DAB+ HE-AAC v2 (AAC+) higher than a 320kbps MP3 (theoretically).

Thank you, mood! I've only had this at 192kbps so anything actually higher is a bonus!

This was a superb mix, so many great memories of listening to this over the summer of 2005.

Of the links posted, which one (if any) is the better quality version? I still use my recording from 2005, but would be keen to get a more polished version
