Hornosteipel Milwaukee Nigunim
Damesek.blogspot.com/p/niggunim.html
1) Hakafa Nigun #1: The Hornosteipler Rebbe, HaRav Mordechai Twerski shlit"a from Flatbush, said, “I heard from my father, the Hornestiepler Rebbe of Denver, HaRav Shlomo Twerski, that Reb Nochum Chernobyler went up to shomayim on Simchas Torah and heard the malachim singing aniggun by hakafos. Reb Nochum Chernobyler brought down this niggun, which later became known as the Chernobyler Hakafah Niggun, and it is sung by all of the Chernobyler descendants (Skvere, Rachmistrivk, Tolna & Hornesteipler) today."
In this version, you will clearly hear the difference between the way it was sung in Hornosteipel and presumably Chernobyl, as opposed to way it is sung in Belz today. (L'maaseh, this version differs slightly from the way we sing it in Milwaukee, too.)
2) Hakafa Nigun #2: Another nigun that was sung in Hornosteipel for hakafos. The Rebbe's father used to dance to this nigun for one of the hakafos, and the past few years it has been reinstated in Milwaukee as well. Here it is sung Rabbi Dr. Sheya Twerski, shlit"a.
3) V'Nismach: In honor of Shavuos, here is one of the Rebbe's classics. This recording is from the 1967 album, A Voice On High (Kol B'Rama).
4 - 8) English Ballads: Here is a ZIP file (23.9 MB) of all five English Ballads (The Tree, The Child Within, The Forest, The Old Man and Im Lo Achshav Eimasai), including the instrumental medley from the L'hodos album and an intro to The Forest.
9) Karev Yom: Composed by the Rebbe, shlit"a. The words are from the piyut that we say at the end of the first seder with the Rebbe's original lyrics in Yiddish. (3 versions)

11) Ashrecha Yisroel: Composed by the Rebbe, shlit"a. An old nigun that I haven't heard sung very often.

13) Al Har Gavoha: Composed by the Rebbe, shlit"a on Shabbos Nachamu, early 1970's.
14) Tisch Nigun: A nigun, possibly of Vizhnitzer origin, that the "old-timers" in Milwaukee used to sing at the tischen of the Rebbe's father, the Rebbe Reb Yaakov Yisroel, zy"a. Recently, the Rebbe, shlit"a was reminded of this nigun and it has become a favorite at tisch.

16) Nigun Rikud: A tantz nigun from Hornosteipel.
