He flipped it over. Tracklist included the original hits—“Titanium,” “Turn Me On,” “Without You”—but CD2 held rarities and extended mixes he’d only heard in underground forums. Price tag: $4.
It was a rainy Saturday afternoon when Alex found it—tucked between a dusty jazz collection and a pile of scratched rock CDs at a flea market. A double jewel case, oddly heavy. The cover: David Guetta’s Nothing But The Beat Ultimate . The sticker on the front read: .
At home, he loaded disc one into his USB drive. His media player recognized it instantly: . No transcodes, no MP3 fakes. Real lossless.

The Ultimate Find
He pressed play. “Where Them Girls At” hit with a bass punch he’d never felt from streaming. The snare had texture. Nicki Minaj’s vocals breathed between the beats. He closed his eyes—not just hearing the music, but feeling the studio layers, the mastering choices, the untouched dynamics from 2012.
Within an hour, five collectors messaged him: Where did you find this? Alex smiled, looked at the rain-streaked window, and typed back: “Some treasures are still out there. Just not where the algorithms look.”
That night, he ripped the discs with Exact Audio Copy, logged the AccurateRip matches (100%), and uploaded the logs to a private forum. Title of his post: “David Guetta - Nothing But The Beat Ultimate -FLAC- -2CD- [Verified True Ultimate Pressing]”
Wrong
No, you are not right.
I love how you say you are right in the title itself. Clearly nobody agrees with you. The episode was so great it was nominated for an Emmy. Nothing tops the chain mail curse episode? Really? Funny but not even close to the highlight of the series.
Dissent is dissent. I liked the chain mail curse. Also the last two episodes of the season were great.
Honestly i fully agree. That episode didn’t seem like the rest of the series, the humour was closer to other sitcoms (friends, how i met your mother) with its writing style and subplots. The show has irreverent and stupid humour, but doesn’t feel forced. Every ‘joke’ in the episode just appealed to the usual late night sitcom audience and was predictable (oh his toothpick is an effortless disguise, oh the teams money catches fire, oh he finds out the talking bass is worthless, etc). I didn’t have a laugh all episode save the “one human alcoholic drink please” thing which they stretched out. Didn’t feel like i was watching the same show at all and was glad when they didn’t return to this forced humour. Might also be because the funniest characters with best delivery (Nandor and Guillermo) weren’t in it
And yet…that is the episode that got the Emmy nomination! What am I missing? I felt like I was watching a bad improv show where everyone was laughing at their friends but I wasn’t in on the joke.
