Was going through an old forum about this older engine called dark basic pro and found this proyect called soulhunter. Here's a link to the original post with the trailer on it. I don't really know what it is about asides from what it says there, which basically is:
SoulHunter is a 3d adventure game, developed in DarkBasic Classic, in which a troubled creature has to travel through a dark forest in order to restore its lost soul.
The game is heavily inspired by the Legend of Zelda series of games, and has an artistic style reminiscent of that in the Rayman series.

In the game you control the creature known only as "SoulHunter". Wielding a magical sword and an old shield, you have to battle your way through the forest, encountering
different monsters whose souls you have to absorb in order to stay alive.

If anyone downloaded it at its time and has a copy please answer it looks so cool.

Here's the link: https://forum.thegamecreators.com/thread/182261

And the download link on the wayback machine which hasn't archived the work: https://web.archive.org/web/20150325050912/http://soulhunter.bytegrove.com/

I'm looking for a song called “Electric Wing” feat. Hatsune Miku (full song), which was released as part of a collaboration event between the mobile game OVERHIT and Hatsune Miku back in 2019.

The original song was announced by Nexon Japan, and there used to be a YouTube video of it. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to find a working copy of the song anywhere.

I've been looking for it because I really miss this song, and I'd love to listen to it again.

Does anyone happen to have a copy of the audio, a reupload, or any information about where I could find it? Even a backup or an archive would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you so much for reading.

Hello Yall -

I have a TINY youtube channel that talks undigitized 78s. I have like 50 subscribers - - so very lame of me.

Tonight: Phil Regan Sunbonnet Sue / By the Light of the Silvery Moon. 1945 Majestic Records 7161.

I stream as The Witching Hour Tone Club. 9pm Central tonight if you want to hang... love to have you show up.

https://www.youtube.com/@TheWitchingHourToneClub

OR if you just want to listen you can play them yourself on our (recently fixed) web player. Shout out to PigsCanFly2day from this sub who helped me with the webplayer...

https://thewitchinghourtone.club/

DOH Fighter 2 has footage of it being played, and was described in this website https://worldsbe.st/kusoge-advent-calendar-2021/ and I can't find a download link anywhere. I tried googling, no dice. The results are flooded with pages that contain links to that one guy's stream archive of the one time he played it.

I'll be real with you. I'll be frank. It looks like a mess. It looks like an absolute mess full of hastily thrown together mugen assets. And yet there's something strangely fun-looking about it, so I want to play it. I bet me and the boys will love this game next time we have our fighting game night. But... I can't find a link to the game. I found one tournament for it, but no way to join. And I found the search results polluted with tons of youtube pages linking to that video of the guys on the website playing the game.

I just want to play the game, man. Why does life have to be so hard?

Is it archived anywhere? Does it still exist or is it fully lost?

I am a fan of her work, both her solo work and her band At0mic Guava. A few years ago she deleted a couple of her solo songs including "Good for". I tried to contact her to ask her why she deleted them but I was only able to contact her band and theu said she mightve deleted it for personal reasons. While I can understand she may not have liked the quality of those songs, I was personally a fan of that song and enjoy her work. I was hoping someone here would have had the song saved so I could listen to it again. Any help would be appreciated.

Sleepwell - Firing Line All Targets down.

Sound The Alarm aka Sleepwell was formed in 1999 by Cody Jancovic, Brian Chiusano, Colin Ellis, Rick Stephans in their hometown of Bangor in Upper Mount Bethel Township, Pennsylvania. At that time, the band members were only 12 years old. The four played covers of favorite bands under the name Sleepwell.
After Joe Brule joined the band, Sleepwell began writing original material and won local acclaim.

Working with Rob Freeman, then of Hidden in Plain View, Sleepwell recorded a demo and word spread quickly about the band.
In 2004, they were courted by producer Howard Benson while still students at Bangor Area High School. The band changed its name to Sound The Alarm because of a threatened lawsuit by a mattress company alleging that the name "Sleepwell" infringed on their copyright.

The group graduated early from high school in 2005, newly christened as Sound The Alarm, released an EP on Rock Ridge Musiclater that year.
They then signed with Geffen Recordsand moved to Los Angeles to record with Howard Benson, releasing their debut full-length, Stay Inside, in July 2007 to mixed reviews.

The group toured with Finch), The Starting Line, Oh, Sleeper, Tokyo Rose), Bedlight For Blue Eyes, and others.

This was my grandma's favorite video, I can recite a lot of the different parts from memory. It has the Skweezy Jibbs character with an Irish cap on, in a kitchen with brown cupboards, explaining how he took PCP and went to the zoo, started talking to a monkey and it started talking back. Surprised he asks if the monkey wants to do PCP back at his house and the monkey says yes, after he asks if it wanted a slew of different drugs. the monkey takes the PCP and goes crazy in the kitchen only then realizing that it wasn't a monkey with the punchline, "that's not an orangutan, its a retarded kid" in the most new York accent imaginable. My grandmother was from New York. I had the video downloaded off an archive about a year ago, but that phone somehow got corrupted, I haven't erased it or nothing yet but I was hoping someone more savvy in scurrying archives could help while I try and fix the phone. Ai said it's lost media and that just sounds crazy to me since I recently watched it a year ago.

Am working on a thesis right now and am desperately in search of this documentary that aired either on TLC or the Discovery Channel back in the early 2000s. YouTube is full of documentaries about Little Audrey Santo—a girl who drowned at 3 years old but remained alive in a permanent vegetative state while being touted by her mother as a "victim soul"—but all of these documentaries are religious in nature and none of them question the veracity of her mother's claims that Audrey performed miracles for the throngs of Catholics who'd made pilgrimages to see her and that she was capable of stigmata. I once had it saved to a DVR that has since been replaced.

I have searched the internet and YouTube/Vimeo for this documentary's existence and have come up completely empty handed.

Any help is greatly appreciated!

It was 10 years ago when the legendary singer David Bowie passed away after his birthday. So I have been searching for these interview segments about him on 5 Live Breakfast (09:00 am) and 5 Live Daily (10:00 am) (featuring Midge Ure, Marc Almond, Tim Burgess, Martyn Ware, and more) on BBC Radio 5 Live, which was aired on February 11th, 2016, but unfortunately there are not here on the website (like YouTube or Mixcloud). Also, it has expired 2 audios on BBC Online for a long time.

Here are 2 episodes' details:

Does anyone have them? Let me know.

Thanks in advance

Hi everyone. My original Minecraft username back in the day was AUSTINZ21. I’m reaching out to the r/lostmedia community because I need the help of some magnificent internet detectives to track down, preserve, or uncover any surviving remnants of a major piece of my childhood.

Back in the 2012–2014 era, I spent years of my life playing on a massive, highly popular Java server network called CowCraft (the historical connection IP was mc.cowcraft.net) [1.1.1, 1.21]. The whole theme of the network was based around cows [lol ik right?], but it was a massive hub for game modes like Towny, McMMO, and Creative.

I’m 24 years old now. I stopped playing around late 2014 to go back to playing outside, and looking at how corporate and hyper-optimized modern Minecraft is today makes me feel like an absolute dinosaur. Because of that, I used an AI tool to help me dig up what happened to my old home, and it told me the server finally went completely dark and shut down recently [1.1.1, 1.21].

Hearing that it's completely gone hit me hard, and it feels like a giant chunk of my childhood has been wiped from the internet. I am looking for anything that survived the wipe from that specific 2012–2014 golden era:

• World Downloads / Server Map Backups: I am desperate to know if anyone ever used world-downloader mods back then, or if any legacy staff members ever leaked or backed up the Towny world map files or the Creative world map files.

• The Towny World Seed: The exact seed was always a heavily guarded staff secret back then, but I want to find out if it ever leaked after the server's decline.

• Community Members / Media: I lived in a classic "village" style town and ran a local business called Austin's Sandwich Shop before striking out 10 chunks away to start z21town. Two massive names I remember from that exact village community were CoolKJ101 (my first online friend ever) and Birdiebird24 (my childhood MC girlfriend). I'm hoping to find old forum archives, screenshots, YouTube videos, or member lists that prove this community existed.

I know I'm rambling a bit, but any helping hand, dead link archive, WayBack Machine snapshot, or hard drive backup would mean the world to me.

To the moderators: please help me keep this post up. I am absolutely not a regular Redditor, I'm just a guy on his phone trying to find a piece of a past I forgot when I was a young boyo. Thank you all so much

Looking to find or locate a wrestling video I liked. Title was just Named Tombstone Piledriver or something like that and the YouTube channel name was Sergeant Johnson I think. I want to say both video and channel got deleted from YouTube but I don’t know. Both channel and video were made somewhere of 2000s-2010s if that helps.

It was an indie/two wrestlers only just performing Tombstone Piledriver over and over again. If I would have to throw in an idea to help, there’s a small scene where one wrestler holds the other wrestler upside down, walks around and taunt/tease his opponent before finishing the move in a wrestling ring.

Hi. My original Minecraft name is AUSTINZ21. Im reaching out to r/lostmedia to help me remember something from the old Minecraft days. I joined a server in 2012-2014ish. It was called cowcraft. It was a very popular server based on cows [lol ik right?] But i uh. Hope you magnificent internet detectives can help me figure the mystery out of the members. Or atleast anything. From what AI [FUCK AI BTW] told me is it was shut down in 2023. Im 24 now, and its hard for me to figure out Minecraft. Im rambling sure but. Anyhelping hand would help. 2 names I remember was Birdiebird24 and CoolKJ101. Thank you all.

And to mods, please help me post this. Im not a redditor. I use a phone and want to find a past i forgot when I was a young boyo

I was hoping that this would be an easy find, but after several years of searching, it’s proven a lot more difficult than anticipated.

I came across the movie “Henry May Long” from its soundtrack by Max Richter. It’s a period drama, set in the late 1800s starring Christian Camargo.

As far as I know, it’s a somewhat obscure film but had a significant, non-zero budget. It was notable enough to be rentable from several streaming platforms about a decade ago, which is how I watched it originally (through iTunes movies which no longer hosts it.)

I’d been getting back into period pieces again and resumed a search for it a couple years ago. I didn’t think the movie would be virtually unfindable because, notably, the whole soundtrack is still widely available AND select tracks from the score have appeared in other media as well.

It turns out, the entire film is basically gone somehow and has become my lost media white whale. It is no longer hosted on any streaming platform, nor readily available as any kind of physical release.

My friend and I have reached out in various different ways to find the film, including emailing people involved in production/direction, actors, and people formerly associated with the now-defunct production company that produced it “Help the Bombardier.”

To my understanding, not even a trailer exists for this film.

That said, this only counts as partially lost as no more than 2-3 short clips of it exist online, as part of Brian Barnhart’s sizzle reel, on the production’s long defunct facebook page, and on a streaming platform that likely formerly hosted it. The score and several screenshots/production photos exist as well to prove that the movie was a thing.

On a personal note, I don’t even remember the movie being that particularly excellent. That said, I was 12-14 ish years younger and didn’t understand media that well. In any case, I think it’s a piece of media that deserves to be found, mind-blowing or not. And after a long, personal search, I’m turning here for any potential assistance.

Not gonna lie, not a huge AI fan, but credit where credit is due.

So, I was talking to some college friends and out of nowhere one of them shows a video of Mario 64 beating people up in Elden Ring. Checked it out after getting home, and... apparently the modding scene is going nuts putting all kinds of games inside each other. (Which, at least in certain respects, is actually really cool... Childhood dream material even. But that’s beside the point for now.)

Word is they're even doing it with closed-source apps and everything. Anyway. Even with feelings that a future career as a dev might be going down the drain, and that this is a few steps from a full cybersecurity crisis, there seems to be at least one good side for the preservation community.

Shortly before this wave of reverse-engineered mods, I carried out a few tests, datamining some MMOs (Dragon City and Dragon Awaken), though my methods were basic at best. Without an asset list, it was mostly brute force and a dictionary generator based on internal assets. I imagine I will be also able to adapt this method in future cases or use it to search for the missing items, as it holds huge potential to yield massive results.

It's amazing to imagine running these tests alongside dedicated people managing to fix broken games or reconstruct missing code fragments, fixing bugs... The possibilities are very promising.

So, I would like to know your thoughts on the topic, and if possible, learn about other forums and resources (especially documentation!) that could help with this. What do you think this can contribute to the game preservation community?

This 120 years old disc was considered lost at least in the digital world 😱

Jacques Offenbach’s Orphée aux Enfers is one of the most celebrated works of French operetta. Its lively orchestration, theatrical character and memorable melodies made its overture a lasting favourite. This historical gramophone recording preserves the first part of the overture, performed by the Orchestre du Gramophone.

Issued on a Gramophone Monarch Record, this side bears catalogue number 040598 and matrix inscription 040598 III / 290 ac. The reverse side contains the second part of the overture, identified by catalogue number 040599 and matrix inscription 040599 P / 289 ac

This old gem 💎 was restored today by the Gramophone Gems team here :

I want to bring up a really strange case of lost media. The movie is an independent Canadian drama directed by Steve DiMarco focusing on three troubled teenagers struggling with family crises and trauma. 

Despite having a verified IMDb Page and Wikipedia article, the film has no digital streaming releases or physical copies. It was briefly shown in festivals and broadcasted on television in Canada in the early 2000s, but has since entirely vanished from mainstream distribution channels, with no official trailer or digital footage. What’s even more bizarre is that there are no online discussions on this movie.

For the last 8 months, i have been searching around the internet for a deleted YouTube video i watched when i was younger. it's basically a funny moments compilation of a racing game called Asphalt 8: Airborne, and the video has been released in 2016, and i think it has been deleted since the channel got terminated in mid 2023. Although i have actually managed to recover most of the metadata about the channel and the video thanks to pages like Filmot and MW Metadata, here is all the info i have:

Video name: Asphalt 8 - funny moments, lags, fails №2

Video link / ID: www.youtube.com/watch?v=z_FU75z0KDQ

Video description: (nothing)

Duration: 5m 9s

Upload date: 21/08/2016

Storyboard (frames): Full storyboard, one third higher quality, second third higher quality, third part higher quality

Channel names (not in order): "tpsPARADOX", "Beksultankab", "Beksultan", "Bkabulov", "Driver #330033ERC™ ⒷⒺⓀⓈⓊⓁⓉⒶⓃ"

Channel ID: www.youtube.com/channel/UCEa4jAVvK151U92hF2WQcaw

Channel profile picture

There is more info here, one is that i am actually currently in contact with the guy that made this video (he confirmed it), i found him by searching up that "tpsPARADOX" name in Yandex, and one of the results is a TikTok page. after that, i finally got in contact with this guy, and asked him pretty much anything. yet unfortunately, he doesn't have them at the moment. he said that the only place where he most likely has them, is his old LG G4 phone which he created those videos on. He doesn't have them on his current phones, the google account he had those videos on was deleted, and he isn't aware of any re-uploads. he doesn't have them on any computers or external disks, the only thing he thinks he has them on is that old phone which he mentioned has a broken motherboard, that's all i know.

another thing is that, unfortunately, at this point i really doubt this video is anywhere on the internet now. i searched sites like VK, BiliBili and RuTube for reuploads, i reverse image searched the thumbnails and even recreated some scenes from memory and reverse image searched them too, but nothing has brought up anything.

and the last thing i have to say, is music. i distinctively remember some songs playing in his other videos, i don't know some of the names of some but i will try to give a rough explanation.

so in the video I'm talking about right now (the funny moments part 2), i remember there was definitely Crazy Frog Axel F, Popcorn by Crazy Frog, and Eurodancer by DJ Mangoo. i remember in other videos, i faintly remember that there was Angles by Morandi playing (although im not 100% sure on that one), i remember there was a looping, upbeat Russian song and the singer sounded kinda like an old man (i also remember that in that song there was like, popping sounds or something like that? I'm not sure if that's in the original song or that had something to do with the video), another song i remember was an also looping, Russian song, but it was more silly and happy, and the singer sounded like a young girl. i also remember that in one video there was the Scooby-Doo original intro song.

anyway, that's all i have and remember. any info you might have would be useful. Please chip in with the help, it would mean the world to me!

FOUND!!!

i have screenshots of the song it was on soundcloud and also had a music video i havent found for years its kind of niche and honestly not the best song its from the underground / soundcloud era bro use to b in the comments on worldstar talking about "who else on acid rn" idk it just is a sentimental song to me it was peak xandemic music.it had a pierre bourne beat tag, it was cash carti type music, i need a word limit but idk wat else to say it would mean the world to hear the beat again it was psychedelic almost super trippy

Hi! Recently I've been digitizing my family's old VHS tapes and I came across one with over two hours of Noggin + Nick Jr. recordings that my parents recorded for me as a baby. This includes a "Warm And Fuzzy Holiday" Move to the Music Special (featuring Moose and Zee, but also a tie-in with Jack's Big Music Show) that I believe has been entirely lost media until now. The special includes Moose and Zee songs that have already been released, but includes bumpers and interludes made specifically for this special that I don't think have ever been uploaded anywhere else. I used to watch this all the time as a kid, so I was shocked that something so ingrained in my brain was completely lost media, and I figured there was a community of people who collect these things, so I've put it on Archive.org.

There are a few cuts, as the tape seems to be recorded on 3 different days over the course of about 2 months, but I've uploaded the raw footage from the original tape. Nothing has been edited, this is the raw digitized recording. I've written up a full breakdown of what I believe to be the entire tape on the Archive.org page.

https://archive.org/details/noggin-nick-jr-vhs-2006-2007

I'm not sure why I can't just post the image here but here's a screenshot I took: the screenshot. Anyways it's a joke acting page and letterboxd isn't really the place for that, even though it's an acting page for chat gpt. I'm disappointed it got removed. There were more credits given to it but I couldn't get all of them in the picture. Maybe there's a wayback machine archive of the page but I'm not sure. Anyways it sucks that there are ai generated movies now, and Letterboxd counts them as movies and puts them on the platform, then takes away something making fun of it.

Hello,

I am looking for the CS:GO demo file for the Aug 20 2014 CS:GO match between iBuypower and NetCodeGuides. This match is famous because iBP bet on their opponent, and then purposely threw the match.

HLTV is considered the best archive for these files, but they do not have the file for this game: https://www.hltv.org/matches/2292409/ibuypower-vs-netcodeguidescom-cevo-professional-season-5

The platform that hosted the game, CEVO, no longer exists. I hav tried to reach out to a few people who worked at CEVO, as well as Richard Lewis who covered this story, but I have not heard back from them. Currently, I can only find VODs for the match, and not the actual .dem file for the game. Thanks!

(NOTE: This is not to be confused with HBO's Not Necessarily The News)

The News Is the News (sometimes called TNITN or TN2) was a live news-satire program that aired four episodes on NBC in the summer of 1983.  The show was filmed live at 30 Rockefeller Plaza in New York (verified by showing actual newspaper front pages from the day of the broadcast) The show had very low ratings, and many of those who did tune in were not impressed.  Executives weren't impressed either as it seems the series wasn't finding it's footing. The show was cancelled after airing only half of its planned eight episodes. 

While documentation of the show exists, including a full Wikipedia page, I can't find the actual episodes. The most I have is a few promos. The longest bit I've found is Toxic Town, a prerecorded sketch by Walter Williams (creator of Mr. Bill).

EDIT: First episode found on Archive!

Hello, I'm wondering if anyone has leads as to where I can find Italian Blood, an 18 minute long silent film by DW Griffith from 1911. I am doing a project on mafia stereotypes in the media and this film came up in the references of an article; I haven't been able to find it on Internet Archive or on Youtube, though there are many sources discussing it online so it must exist! I've just watched The Black Hand from 1906, which has a similar subject matter, so no worries if Italian Blood isn't available. But, if anyone has any hints as to different archives where it might exist, that would be much appreciated!

hi, everyone!

i’m looking for episodes of Dango Balango, a somewhat obscure Brazilian puppet show for kids.

i made a few posts on r/BrasilLostMedia explaining the situation, but i’ll give a quick summary here.

(post 1 and post 2 )

basically, only the fourth season is complete, while the third season is only partially available officially. episodes for the first and second season can be found online on Youtube, but most of it is missing.

when i started looking more closely to figure out exactly which episodes were missing, i realized that information about Dango Balango is really scarce and sometimes even contradictory.

that led me to the second part of the search: i tried contacting EBC (the public media company that operates TV Brasil, who co-produced the show and where the it later aired), Giramundo (the company responsible for the show’s puppets), and Rede Minas (the public broadcaster that originally produced the show. so far, only TV Brasil has replied, and they sent me a complete episode list in order. with that, i made a spreadsheet with the episodes, synopses, and links i was able to find.

now i’m a little stuck and i’m not really sure how to continue the search. most of the episodes i found are on YouTube or on the official streaming platforms from Rede Minas and TV Brasil, and i’m not sure where else i could look.

i’d really appreciate some help from people who know more about TV media preservation, collectors, old recordings, digital archives, or media collecting. maybe someone knows other places i could search, has an old recording, or can point me toward people/communities that work with this kind of material.

any lead would help a lot, and thanks in advance to anyone willing to help :)

if this isnt the correct sub to post this kind of stuff, please let me know.

here's the link for the spreadsheet

the items marked in yellow are the ones i could not find.

as i mentioned before, some of the information is contradictory - even though TV Brasil sent me the complete episode list, some episodes have differents titles in different sources. i put the alternative titles in parentheses.

It was a sequel to Gutterballs 2008, it was aired at a Texas Film Festival around 2015 but it was never released afterwords. The movie has a trailer and you can find a ton of information about it on Google. As someone who really liked Gutterballs 2008 outside of the rape scene, it would be great to be able to watch the sequel someday. I liked the idea of a horror movie taking place at a bowling alley. Does anyone know if it is available online? I figure that the movie has to be out there somewhere.
