M4A Taylor Swift - Fan Made Archives Project ("Best of" Compilation of Unreleased and Live Performances)

Hello all! I have been working on a Taylor Swift ARCHIVES Album Project for a while and I wanted to share it!

​

Divided into 4 compilations, this is sort of a compiled “Best of” of Taylor Swift’s demos, unreleased and live performances, of which there are many. It was first meant just for my personal library but I’m pretty proud of the way it turned out, as I did so much digging, VOB converting, album sequencing and tried my hand at learning how to Master audio. To hell with VOB files btw.

I was also inspired by Joni Mitchell’s Archive project (which I am obsessed with) and based it heavily off of that. Since a proper Taylor Swift Archives project won’t probably see the light of day until she’s Joni’s big age … let me get my head start.

Not every live performance has the greatest audio (even with my enhancements) and I’m also not a graphic designer so if there are a few gripes or issues, read me to filth PLEASE <33333 Also, once I decided I would be sharing this publicly, I started being a bit generous with what would be included on here (I also wasn’t going to include folklore to present day material on the fourth volume for continuity but whatever, I might make a 5 someday in the distant future). However, if you think there is an unreleased song, performance or anything that merits being on these compilations, I am open to suggestions (or add it yourself idk but I am genuinely open to hearing it!). Also, live performances from already existing concerts (examples: DWOHT from the rep Tour or OOTW (SYDNEY!) from the 1989 tour) aren't included because ... well, for continuity </3 Lastly, I did try formatting these songs into Discs/Albums so keep that in mind. I was thinking .. if this were pressed on vinyl, how would I want it to flow? I did contemplate making my own bootleg copies of this but I would rather have money to feed myself. LPs make for very flimsy plates. IIIIIII thought I was being clever starting the Speak Now era disc with the Stevie Nicks Grammys performance and ending it with Mean Grammys performance... Storytelling, baby. Where is MY Grammy for Best Comedy Album.

DISCLAIMER: this is M4A format (meaning fit for Apple devices). If there is a demand for it, I will swiftly convert this to MP3 as well. I am just too lazy to do it right now.

Hope you all enjoy it : )

if anyone is a graphic designer and wants to help contribute to the album art, PLEASE reach out
