#2I don't know about you all but I miss the websites of 2007. There was so much variation and unbridled creativity. I remembered stumbling upon this page in 2007 while looking up Amon Tobin's soundtrack to Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory. I can't remember the last time I saw a musician launch such a beautiful interactive site for their album release. And here it is in 2024, lovingly preserved and still functional on Internet Archive.

I was amazed that the site still runs, apparently still using the same engine.
But it seems that it was a flash site (of course), and archive.org seems to replace Flash Player with "Ruffle" [1]. Either that, or someone of Tobin's team replaced Flash with Ruffle >= 2019.

Canibus had a cool web player! You could make your own version of his music (Mentioned in https://theoutline.com/post/6977/canibus-internet-mic-club)

#8I honestly had to do a double take when I saw this make the front page. Never thought I'd see Amon Tobin top HN!

I've got no sound either. :(
Works in Firefox though.

#10Neat. Had some of his stuff on vinyl. At some point he was almost mainstream, even composed the OST for a Splinter Cell video game.
