Hanalgig

Hanalgig is a leaked CDr of demos and unfinished tracks compiled by Sean. It was originally made in 2012 for a DJ set at Dave Hanal's birthday party. According to Sean, what's been leaked is one of two CDs he burned for the party.

For the Hanalgig AMA, refer to Hanalgig AMA.

History

Hanalgig was first brought to the public's attention during Sean Twitch AMA, June 2022, when WATMM user, hello spiral asked Sean whether he minded these tracks being shared. His answer was somewhat ambiguous, but said that it was inevitable that it would end up on the internet anyways.

On July 23rd, the full CD was found on Soulseek, where it had been uploaded by someone under the username "pigster". It was subsequently uploaded to YouTube by Paranoidal Dyslexia, on July 24th, 2022, where Sean provided a makeshift tracklist, and answered several questions regarding the mix in a pinned comment thread.
