10 – Heatpump 
1999 / Source: Once available on MP3.com / “The psickest track by Strangepork so far… Inspired by the Dutch maestros Growling Mad Scientists and Synchro, this is a real stunner. The reason why it’s got the “parental advisory” warning is some nasty samples of a moaning woman inside… In other words: Do not listen to this in your office… Perfect late at night!”

16 – Starpeace 
1999 / Source: Once available on MP3.com / “147 BPM, dedicated to… Peace. There’s just too much hate around, you know. It’s time to start loving a bit, instead of hating. Even in sci-fi movies, all you see is WAR. That’ why it’s called “Starpeace”…”

18 – Troposphere 
1999 / Source: Once available on MP3.com / “The most trippy track, I think. Very nice, kind of a tropic feeling. Not much melody, just a wonderful, psychedelic journey…”

Notes
• According to Strangepork’s defunct MP3.com page, some of these tracks were produced with the collaboration of an artist called “Patient X”. Both formed the project “SX”. However, as explained by Spork, “‘Strangepork & Patient X’ was me and a friend – we never released anything together, but when I registered with MP3.com, we still thought we might. The URL couldn’t be changed after the fact, so it just stuck; all tracks are ‘Strangepork’ only”.
• The artist confirms that he never produced a track called ‘Pista’ as listed on psynews.org by user Linux Psytrancer.
• “I remember that I used a programme called ‘ReBirth’ relatively early, and this programme was released in 1998.”[Spork]
• Some of other tracks once available on MP3.com are part of a DAM CD album called “Below The Surface”.
