APHEX TWIN - SYRO

First listen I 'hated' Circlont6, it was too chaotic. 5 listens in, I'm already starting to love it. This was what I was hoping for.

The best albums are the ones you have to get used to. My experience is that if you like something right away, it gets dull very soon.

pseudotimestretch is such a good intro for a very crazy track, It keeps dissapointing me because I mentally prepare for something very mental.

12 tracks downloading now by the looks of it. maybe just in aus? the page is different from when i checked it last night too in that it doesn't say 'out 22/9' or whatever the date was.

i'm in australia, pre-ordered, still only shows one track for me. i'm quickly associating pre-ordering with being kicked in the dick

also, sydney folks - usagi,me and a few friendly peeps will be hanging here listening to it tomorrow at my place in enmore. if you wanna come check it out with us and play some gta pm me, even if you're just lurking and wanna meet some afx fans in the area. we're all nice peeps and look forward to meeting yall

 

dang, that sounds great. I reckon we (ie. myself and bitroast) will do a Melbourne vinyl listening party when I get back from Japan.

 

i'd prob be in for that too. you're in jp at the moment?

edit: wait, you're doing a local gig tonight, of course you're not

It's going to take me a while to get used to hearing Metz without the background noise of people talking. Studio version is sofa king good though. Lush.

This is a solid LP. Thanks Richard, good job.

+1 ,

beautiful music !

2:47-2:49 of CIRCLONT6A

highlight of the best part of that track, the best on syro

To make up for all of the piracy, I'm buying the album on every format and never listening to it.

Just the two seconds? You're nuts! (Read: your nuts last just two seconds and are probably only able to enjoy excitement for two second time intervals)

;D

As long as you buy the album I have no problem with getting it off a download.

I really think this is his most personal album, sounds like it's made of someone's dreams the way all of the voices weave in and out with different filters. Produk 29 is a perfect representation of a night out gone just a tad wrong.

well yeah, in the last 10 years haha

completely white gatefold, track information on each inner sleeve with the equipment list on the back of the third one.

I am slightly disappoint. but I guess it's committed to the receipt/list theme

@Delet... They have the Syro vinyl in west end at Jet Black Cat if any use.

HOLY SHIT, hopefully that sign in the window hasn't made it sell out. I'll go tomorrow morning. thanks dude. EDIT: VINYL !! argh, cd's too ?

4 bit is so fucking lush, i can't stop listening to it. it's perfect, the deep bass mixed with the airy sighs and bells. 1:39 - 1:53 is classic. it never stood out to me this much from the few times i've heard the minehead recording, but wow.
