Ahh, Gazelle. The ideal tracker sourcecode for music torrent sites. If there’s ever been room for another music tracker on the ‘net, it’s a high-quality lossless Gazelle tracker to compete with Pedro’s and E*. Enter Eargasm.ME - a new lossless audio tracker (100% log, no transcodes), billed as the new & improved Need-Music v2 - Eargasm.ME officially launched yesterday, and is very much still in ‘beta’, but early signs suggest a heightened interest in the development of this rebranded FLAC-only baby Gazelle.
Excerpt below, taken from Waffles.fm:
Eargasm is a lossless music and music DVD tracker that holds the same high standards about ripping as E***o and Pedro’s BTMusic, this site is for anyone interested in perfect audio rips and full music DVD’s. Music is in FLAC format only. Now under new management, this site has undergone a complete makeover from it’s first incarnation as "Need-Music."
The announcement continues…
Eargasm runs on Gazelle RC2 and is still very much in its infancy. Need-Music indexed over 900 torrents and had 1,065 members, but Eargasm is a completely different site. As a result, it will be starting out from scratch…
There’s not much point in providing a bevy of screenshots yet, since Eargasm runs on a stock Gazelle RC2 install. Here’s the homepage:
Get Invited to Eargasm
Public registration to Eargasm is not open directly, and may never be. Since it’s so new, we have no idea as to how this will transpire. But those who are already registered as an old member of Need-Music.info are able to apply to join Eargasm through their IRC channel here:
- Server: irc.savethecoratee.org (SSL port is 6697)
- Channel: #eargasm.me-invites
- Hotlink: irc.savethecoratee.org/eargasm.me-invites
In the invite channel above, all you need to do is ask for an invite, and paste in your N-M profile link in the channel. Be advised, the Eargasm invite will be automatically sent to the same email address that you initially used to signup on N-M. You will not be asked any further questions after supplying your N-M profile link.
Currently, non-members of N-M are not able to apply for an invite. This is subject to change, but for now that’s how it is. If you’re a PU on W&W, check out these threads to keep updated:
