Here is some information from the person who made this collection
"I downloaded a series of rare NWW files off the net in and around 2001, probably from Napster or something. I wanted to put them on CD for myself but I hate calling things "Nurse With Wound - Various Rare Tracks", as it's a bit boring. At the time, I was file sharing with a couple of people who were into experimental music. As a joke, I packaged this with a quickly made up JPG "cover" and told them I found this bootleg on the internet. I hadn't, but I wanted to see if they'd buy it. Somehow it got past them and obviously ended up getting traded about. This was in 2001. I know this because the creation date on the JPG I made is from 2001. Keep in mind that this was never meant to be a bootleg. It was never burned to CD-R or sold. Absolutely NO money was made from this. It was basically just a rarities collection I made to share between a few friends. I own a large NWW collection and would ALWAYS buy any of these tracks if I found them and will support Stephen until the end, financially and otherwise. The JPG is basically a crude reference to the cover of "Homotopy To Marie", one of my favorite album covers of all time. The title literally comes from two random images I found on the net and stuck together in photoshop for the cover. I didn't actually think anybody would take it seriously."

GENESIS P'ORRIDGE - EARLY WORM (1968)

Dais Records - DAIS 001 - Limited to 500 hand numbered copies.
First ever pressing of an original recording made in 1968 and pressed to one single acetate which remained in the possession of Genesis P-Orridge's archives, considered to be he/r first ever musical recording. (discogs.com)
“EARLY WORM” was pressed at Deroy Sound Services in November 1968 even though the actual single acetate copy has “copyright 1969” written by hand on the centre label. I was away at Hull University when it arrived at my home at 6 Links Drive, Solihull, Warks. So I took it back to Hull in the new year. I hand wrote the cover quotes from “SILENCE” by John Cage. It was recorded in the roofspace attic of the house during 1968 Summer and on a weekend trip home with Jesus Joheero (Joheero pronounced - Yo’ hero, i.e. Your Hero). The sleeve notes were hand written on typing paper. Xerox enclosed. (gpo.com)

PANDIT PRAN NATH - RAGA CYCLE (PALACE THEATRE, PARIS 1972)

Sri Moonshine Music SMM 003 - 2006
Vocals - Pandit Pran Nath
Tabla - Terry Riley
Tambura - La Monte Young , Marian Zazeela
The Raga Cycle (RS)
Tracklisting
1. Raga Shudh Sarang (33:19)
2. Raga Kut Todi (12:10)

The Raga Cycle at the Palace Theatre in Paris, 1972 showcased Pandit Pran Nath at the peak of his powers. The Raga Cycle took place over three consecutive days. Friday, May 28th night ragas, Saturday May 29th, late afternoon ragas and Sunday, May 30th morning and mid-day ragas. These three concerts stand as a truly awe-inspiring monument, an example of perfection of the high Art of Hindustani music by one of the greatest masters of the Kirana Gharana. Kirana, a small village north of New Delhi, produced many of the giants of Indian classical vocal music. Among them, Ustad Abdul Waheed Khansahib, Pran Nath-ji's guru, and the immensely popular Ustad Abdul Kareem Khan. One of the undeniable beauties of Indian Classical Music is its strong connection to nature and especially the binding relationship of Raga melodies to their appropriate time of day. An elegant curve of melody, a subtle lowering of pitch, or an assertiveness attached to a particular note helps to define the effect of a Raga. There are Ragas for all the times of day and night as well as seasons, and when they are sung at their appropriate time their effectiveness is noticeably enhanced. Pandit Pran Nath's knowledge of this musical science was extraordinary and he made it his life's work to probe deeply with his expressive voice the true character of each raga using his matchless pitch discrimination and compelling emotional range.

ANGUS MacLISE - BRAIN DAMAGE IN OKLAHOMA CITY

Quakebasket/Siltbreeze 2000
Previously unreleased material recorded between 1967 and 1970, culled from the archives of Tony Conrad.

This volume highlights MacLise's unique and intricate drumming style. Cembalum, bongos, hand drum, barrel congas - all are majestically thumped'n'bumped for maximum orgasmic sensory satisfaction.
Comprised of eight tracks, the acme of this collection is the two large ensemble pieces, "Dreamweapon Benefit for the Oklahoma City Police Dept. parts 1 & 2," featuring Angus (barrel conga), Hetty MacLise (tampura), the poet Jackson Maclow (recorders and voice), Henry Flynt (song flute and voice) and Tony Conrad (limp string). These tracks, recorded in May of 1968, are the apex of maximalist loft style psychedelic improvisation. (midheaven.com)

KAS PRODUCT - TRY OUT (1982)

First album of this seminal post-punk/cold wave french duo : astonishing Mona Soyoc (vocals/guitar) and awful 80's haircut Spatsz (electronics).

SPATSZ, né à Nancy. A quitté son job d'infirmier psychiatrique en 1978 pour se consacrer aux synthétiseurs et aux boites à rythmes.
MONA SOYOC (guitare, piano, vocaux), née à Stamford, Connecticut (USA), d’origine argentine. En janvier 80, ils fondent KaS PRODUCT et travaillent sur leurs propres compositions. Ils enregistrent deux EP et en mars 81, Marquis de Sade invite KaS PRODUCT a faire la première partie de sa tournée française. [frenchnew-wave.com]
try out (divshare)
A synth-based duo from Nancy, France, KaS Product — Mona Soyoc (vocals/guitar) and Spatsz (electronics) — was very much in the Suicide/early Soft Cell mode, although that comparison is rather generous, quality-wise. Spatsz takes care of the musical details with derivate dispatch, while Soyoc — who lacks real vocal skills — sings unaccented English with self-important theatrical ambition on "Try Out", whose highlight is the jazzy "No Shame." (The crude "Never Come Back," which rhymes "back" and "twat," is the album's easy low point.) [Ira Robbins/David Sheridan]
