Wat. Gotta b Vibert if it sounds like sum1 else

I hear no ufabulum on this. I found that cold and brash. This has totally different timbre's.

I hear no BoC, no more plaid apart from the feel in the structure of the first half of mini pops. I hear a progressive angle on the tuss with typical aphex cliche techniques and sounds from past albums. It will probably spurn a trend for a while but not particularly in mainstream music. It will probably drive up the prices of FM synths even more and people will go Gaga over the FS1R and they will reach cs80 prices ha.

loads of you are really over analysing syro. it's an excellent album - enough said.

Arg its so good! Hopefully it will help the new raft of skrillex/deadmouse migrants realise they've been wasting their lives. like giving an alcoholic a heavy does of acid.

on my first listen to the fabled metz track I've got to say i was disapointed,however on saturday morning feeling a little delicate i tried it a again.i laughed to myself how could i have been so wrong.it was perfect.then tried to play it just now and it done my head in again.

My comments about it sounding like Plaid are more directed to Minipops than the album. As I said on the CHATMM, this is like Aphex's Hello Everything: a mix of everything Aphex does on one record.

I think it's a solid record. Not much new or paradigm shifting but definitely great listening.

Yep, I was/am agreeing with you. It was the first thing I thought when I heard it but I must admit, I hear it less now and it's just mini pops.

Does anyone have a translation of what that Russian bird is saying at the start of the track? Has this been answered already?

She said that vladimir Putin is an aphex fan and does robotic dancing around his big red nuke launch button to vordhosbn. The only reason he does not press it is because he gets too into the music.

"Pseudo strech of sound it time" to be absolutely correct. Basicaly pseudotimestretch

Also in earth portal she just sings "streeeeching" in russian

WATMM

Multiple listens, haven't heard anything that reminds me of BOC.

The only thing I cringe about on Syro is hearing the vocal sample in produk 29 - is it really necessary? The vocals aren't even melodic or processed/vocoded - just sounds totally out of place with such a magnificent track. Would much better without them I think; they don't add anything.

Gave the album a first listen, first five didn't do much for me, but from there on I just luved it.

will hear again.

and again.

Everyone is lel. I agree :)

Also like spiral said above. What's with the obsession with being 'the best'

I like all his LP's (and lots of others) for different reasons, so I can't really compare them.

Word. Might have to avoid this subforum for a bit I think, haha

Actually the 2nd half is making much more sense to me played loud through the stereo...

Bit of a puzzle that track. Can't help thinking it's a very pointed dig at somebody, 1: because of that odd voice sample, 2: because it's a total mimickry of Luke Vibert

Not suggesting it's a dig at Vibert himself, btw..
