Have you tried using youtube-dl? It extracts the relevant data from Soundcloud's JSON API to perform the download:

I know you mentioned originals are only accessible through the web interface, but I was not sure if you were aware of the JSON API.

Oh, I didn't know that. I ended up writing my own SoundcloudSync.py to keep a backup. Not very sophisticated but easy enough to run by hand whenever I upload something new.
