By February 1995, Rivers had developed a tracklisting [henceforth known as "Tracklist 1"], and compiled a casssette of it from recordings as old as his late '93 "Tired of Sex" demo, and as recently as new recordings he made over the xmas '94 break at home. In Feburary 95, weezer was stuck in Hamburg, Germany for a week, as Matt had to rush home due to a family emergency, and the least expensive option in light of missing shows, was to just stay put till Matt got back. It was decided that at least some demos could be worked on, and Rivers and Pat rented a modest local recording studio in Hamburg. There the medium was the (then new) ADAT tape system. Both Rivers and Pat did a number of demos (and Pat and Karl even worked on some Southern Fried Swing when nothing else was going on [doing a track called "the complete history of techno", which was done solely to make fun of the nasty music being created in the studio next door]. However, it appears that NONE of the ADAT recordings were ever quite finished. Its POSSIBLE that some of the "black hole" songs were "upgraded" with a new recording here, and replaced on the cassette with fresh recorded demos of the same tracks.|[https://web.archive.org/web/20140519063524if_/http://daveandnikolai.com/wzr/classic/03_Recording_History/WeezRecHist7.html Weezer Recording History, Page 7]}} | By February 1995, Rivers had developed a tracklisting [henceforth known as "Tracklist 1"], and compiled a casssette of it from recordings as old as his late '93 "Tired of Sex" demo, and as recently as new recordings he made over the xmas '94 break at home.
