Haha, I had no idea Tycho was so shit  

Proper shit. I listened to his top 10 tracks on Spotify and they were a joke.

While I haven't posted much, I've been lurking on this site for more than 20 years. I hope it doesn't just disappear

will happily help out in setting up the FSOL Subforum And Wiki on We Are The Noise Creators if required.

Will also selfishly save me some cash on the annual .co.uk and .com domain registration and hosting costs too if that happened

Global Goon used to post here a lot. He even sent a bunch of us advance copies of Family Glue.  

there was a remix contest as well right? I remember having his stems and making a track out of it...

yes there was. I made a decent (by my standards) remix and now I can’t find it anywhere. Total bummer. 

The personal highlights (for me) were:

• Having Boards of Canada judge a video contest
• Bringing The Caustic Window LP to the masses

Of course, there were so many more (and a lot of low points), but overall it's been a unique experience for sure.

you forgot the autechre AMA!

also, what were the biggest low points? apart from the great 2005 crash

I seem to remember this being pre-my dialup connection being capable of downloading/streaming such a wild thing as 'an entire music video' .... was this archived anywhere ?

Tycho posted here many years ago. Right after the «never heard of BOC»-gate. I called his music pure evil, and he responded with an almost sobbing post. That made me feel bad, and I bought a t-shirt from is webshop.

I hope this site survives easter. I need some days off to read through AAA and the ambient megathread.

btw the autechre AAA is archived as a google doc for anyone who wants to bookmark it

is there a point in me duplicating and storing it along with those mixlr playlist spreadsheets. i'm pondering out loud here, i'm just thinking that it'd be nice to have a central place where resources like this could be gathered (or at least a page with links to resources)

i don't know. i just know the AAA was put in a google doc format by someone for easy sharing.

edit: oh misread your post.  i don't know

day 5 posting Tycho videos every day until Joypapa decides to hand over the site to someone else

The Watmm effect

Can’t remember… Was it ever confirmed if Ryan Wyer (The Minipops kid) had an account here? I imagine he had to have one, at some point.

these videos are so high quality, they really make me feel the boredom i would experience at one of his shows. i can practically feel might feet hurt from standing still so long, even though im sitting down
