Curated collection
Jamroom Era
2012-2013 Jamroom-era records and continuity traces from the later TightBeatz web platform.
Why This Collection Exists
Jamroom-era records are not treated as original-forum-era proof unless a separate record supports that bridge.

The Jamroom-era TightBeatz
Five complete homepage responses and two domain inventories preserve a fully deployed Jamroom site. It retained the TightBeatz name and familiar activities while replacing the original portal and IP.Board system with a different platform, visual identity and forum arrangement. David remembers this as the post-sale era. The deployed site is directly verified; the sale, ownership chain and operator identities are oral history unless separately corroborated.

Hall Of Heroes and OMT afterlife packet
Heavy submitted and labeled a post-TightBeatz continuity cluster around OMT, Kamikaze, Heavy Mayn and Hall Of Heroes. The room labels date OMT - From This Moment On to 2013 and Hall Of Heroes / OMT-Kamikaze-Heavy material to 2014, with OMT credited for mixing and production. The record belongs to the life-after-TightBeatz layer and does not claim original TightBeatz hosting.

The profile exposes public SoundCloud tracks including 13, #Passion, No Clue, and My Time. This is a later public listening trace, not an original TightBeatz upload or a current-contact publication.
