""I don't have enough life left in me to digitize everything I have. And it's just decaying. So before everything falls apart, it needs to be digitized.""
""Given the insane scope of the project, a group of volunteers help Jacobs digitize, restore, catalog, and upload his collection.""
Aadam Jacobs has created a massive recording archive of live music, digitizing over 2,000 recordings from his collection of around 10,000 shows since the early '80s. This collection features performances from iconic bands like Nirvana, R.E.M., and The Cure. Volunteers assist Jacobs in digitizing and cataloging the recordings, ensuring their preservation. Jacobs has never monetized his collection, instead sharing recordings with artists, contributing to projects like The Replacements' live album. The effort aims to preserve the music before it deteriorates further.
