I'm guessing it's second according to my theory

 

1. XXXXXX

(11?)

 

2. 6+9+9+7+4+2 = 37

3+7 = 10

 

3. 7+1+7+2+2+8 = 27

2+7 = 9

 

4. 9+3+6+5+5+7 = 35

3+5 = 8

 

5. XXXXXX

(7?)

 

6. 5+1+9+2+2+5 = 24

2+4 = 6

 

then

 

11+10+9+8+7+6 = 51

5+1 = 6

 

(edit) haha you were quick!

Just to add:

11/10/9/8/7/6 could also be broken down as:

2+1+9+8+7+6 = 33 => 3+3 = 6

But the outcome would be the same.

why go to all this trouble to give us the number six? there's got to be more.

Guys,

 

Do you know how easy it would be to press your own vinyl, package it with an official looking SKU, upload some crappy YouTube videos a few years in advance, and ask BBC1 and NPR to cooperate by playing some cryptic stuff? Obviously a fake guys. Obviously Chaosmachine's birthday tape 2.0.

Lol. Nice one.

Well, maybe the recursive addition within each series only serves to point out their order, and we shouldn't be adding across the different codes. Or it could be a wrong lead altogether of course.

Works almost perfectly with Aquarius, btw.

Would be really funny (in a kind of dark, twisted way) if all this shenanigans turned out to be nothing more than Warp announcing a remastered version of MHTRTC.

Also, does it worry/bother anyone that the tiny snippet of music on the 12" sounds so lame and frankly predictable?

If we go with the idea that a lot of new material is forthcoming, couldn't they have stuck one 3 or 4 minute piece on that vinyl?

My main reason for doubting the authenticity of the 12" was mostly down to that music.

This is probably it.

I think it comes down to the mysterious factor and that they don't wanna show their cards just yet. I quite like the little piece and it's really reminiscent of EYDIAB

i think they're the result of binary combinations. Perhaps the solution is making a 11x11 Karnaugh grid and see what happens.

What if, at the end of it all, it makes the Exai album cover?

I think I've guessed where the last set of numbers will come from.

Picture the scene.

The White House.

An emergency press conference has been called. Representatives from media all across the globe are gathered.

Maybe it's a North Korea announcement.

Maybe celebrities have been told that they can't travel to Cuba anymore.

Obama strides confidently on stage. He's done this many times before.

He is handed a slip of paper.

The room is silent. The air tense with nervous anticipation.

"I've been told to read this out," says Obama.

it probably was,anyway,i liked it

Isn't it just supposed to sound like the kind of 'jingles' they use for numbers stations though (as opposed to sounding like an actual BOC track)?

lol, and it's on tv, and somehow when he speaks the numbers his voice gets all mangled just like the YT clips, lolol

lol ... indeed!

they'll reward the person who solves the puzzle with a copy of my bloody valentine's "mbv"

It was worth the wait.

You guys manipulating the numbers, plotting coordinates and figuring out hex values are amazing.

But I'm guessing this is simpler than all of that. It seems they are broadcasting their own numbers station. Numbers stations are uncrackable if they use a one time pad for deciphering. My guess is this code will be cracked the same way a numbers station message is decoded - using a decryption pad that will be given to us somehow. Until that happens, I'm guessing it will be impossible to decode it.
