I think probably the primary reason it is "orchestrated" is not for cynical reasons, but because they refuse to let us (the fans) fail like we did with Redmoon. So they probably have multiple backups. Meaning, they sent out records, but in the case they weren't all found, they also did stuff on youtube, and on NPR, etc. and in the case we get all the numbers but still can't crack the code, I'm guessing they will drop further hints.

We've already detected one duplicate number so far, so it's obvious they have these backups going. They aren't going to let us facepalm again. I don't see it as sinister or cynical, quite the opposite. They will give help as they deem it necessary.

can this be anything but a watmm wind-up? or does batcock have other origins?

lol are you serious that the image behind that code was batcock?? hahaha, ok, I didn't even see it. In that case I retract my belief in that set of codes. I was pausing the youtube clip and when I paused it, the image behind wasn't clear (could barely see the number).

lawls.

i don't, I was replying to fumi and capt. kittinger

 

FWIW I agreed with fumi's post that I quoted, not against the fun and don't see it as cynical. We're being drip fed as part of a marketing effort. But it IS still fun and interesting... albeit frustrating that we don't seem to have progressed since the Radio 1 code (given the lack of code position for the NPR one). Keen to see where this all leads, but I also doubt that this is some kind of puzzle that can be cracked ahead of when Warp wants us to.

It could be worse.

hot

It'll be interesting if they do something totally weird and left-field for this release. They often talk about how stifled they feel by the BoC identity, and how "their next one will really break away from their current sound", but it hasn't happened yet. Personally, I don't need a huge change or big update, I was quite happy with TCH and will be fine with a mild evolution rather than drastic break. But I would be curious to see what they can come up with.

I imagine them looking at all that old logo stuff they've come up with, the cutesy BoC fonts and so on, and imagine them feeling mildly embarrassed. Especially given all the clones that have come out since.

Awesome, hopefully they've got Pitbull and Drake in there too, possibly even a Jessie J collab... this is soooo exciting! :)

yeah. and pharell.

Hope they bring back Torpeedoh

I wonder if MBV release has spurred them on a bit into releasing an album with more traditional instrumentation.

The Numbers Station (a film) is released in America tomorrow (starring John Cusack)

lol

Imagine if they played a 'trailer' before the film started with the code at some cinemas tomorrow??!

Quite surprised that no one's mentioned the NME cover is TURQUOISE this week:

soundtrack on warp records?

freaky coincidence given all the numero actiano

Would be funny if in some part of the film, one of BoC's broadcast clues was heard whilst they were listening on the radio.
I couldn't find any Soundtrack listing for it either haha.
The film looks like it's going to be pants though >.<

Oh dear. That film looks terrible. Like some director found out about numbers stations and had a script for a film the next morning!
