DESCRIPTION:
Official Maxis' radio stations songs from "The Sims: Bustin' Out" (2003), released exclusively for the consoles. Despite the release date being close to "The Sims 2", songs are signed by different composers - Jerry Martin in this case, the same one from the original "The Sims" and "The Sims Online". Therefore, the songs don't blend in as good as the ones from "The Urbz" (which I also have a pack uploaded on the website), but it's great to be able to finally experience those songs on PC (probably port this pack to the original "The Sims" would be the perfect scenario). All songs are in MP3 and in the highest quality possible (320kbps), ready to use.


TUTORIAL:
1. Paste "Music" folder inside Documents\EA GAMES\The Sims 2.
2. Run the game, enter your neighborhood and click on the three dots (options menu).
3. Click on the speaker icon (sound settings) and activate the not ticked songs in the following radio stations: Country, Hip Hop, House Mix, Indie Wave, Jazz, Metal, Pop and Techno.
4. That's it! Have fun!


DETAILS:
There are 28 new songs in 320kbps already placed in the equivalent radio stations folders. You just need to copy the folders and tick the songs inside the game, as explained in the tutorial above.


NOTES:
1. Some songs from "The Sims Bustin' Out" were part of "The Sims 2" beta, being part of some marketing material and even being hidden among the files of the final version of the game (although unused).
2. There are three bluegrass songs placed inside "Country" folder - if you have Free Time (or Apartment Life?) you can create a new station specially for these songs.
3. I moved "Eeyooma Mana Muki Vop" from Pop to Indie Wave, since its a new station introduced in "The Sims 2" and better fits the song's vibe.
4. I moved "Sims House Party" from Techno to House Mix, since its a new station introduced in "The Sims 2" and better fits the song's vibe.
