DJ Exclusive Presents Dr. Dre – Dretox (2005) (CDr) (FLAC + 320 kbps)
This was requested few weeks ago, so I decided to start looking for it. I managed to nail down original US version of the mixtape (there are several other versions coming out from UK, Ukrainian and Russian labels). Firstly, I want to inform that this is a CDr, not CD. Secondly, it’s an unofficial release which contains mixed tracks from different sources. As a result, this might not be your clean FLAC rip. I still decided to provide a FLAC version along with MP3 for those who love to collect Dre or simply wants to enjoy some mixtape goodness. Otherwise, if you don’t like something, feel free to skip this release. Haven’t got my hands on those other versions but I believe it can’t get much better than it already is, unfortunately.

A quick spectrum analysis shows that this is just a glorified FLAC rip because of the steep drop in frequencies above 16000 Hz. It’s probably better than what you can find on DatPiff, but the lossless download for this one is a waste of time and storage.
Nobody glorified this. Read a description before tracklist. This is an original US release which is CDr. I did my best when ripping this and it is MPEG anyway (except one track which was CDDA). So as I said – take it or leave it. I believe one simply wont be able to get a REAL FLAC outta this CDr.
OK, yes, that’s true. Wonder if the bootleg 12″s of some of these tracks sounded better (some even have instrumentals).
Goood thanks for listing this, 4 real
Doesn’t sound like real lossless unfortunaly.Would love better quality too
