I'm hardly a closed minded nun. Remember, I'm on a fucking IDM forum.... an IDM forum.. Think about that for a second before claiming people are closed minded nuns.

What I'm talking about has nothing to do with that interview...

Just saw a "sponsored" post by Bochum Welt in my Facebook post it said "BMG/REPHLEX 2014" Rephlex is back?

Looks like BMG has always been associated with this album, but it was released over ayear ago. Weird to be paying for advertising now. Idunno.

Fantano has obviously never used drugs that is why he is so nauseatingly pedantic. I don't really mind the review though. I just enjoy hearing him pause to over emphasize the pronunciation of words.

There will be new love from the ashes of us.

Syro (esp tracks 6-9 & 11) = RDJ's most 'skeletal' album? In some ways it reminds me of what Autechre did with Untilted. Except on Syro there are almost no typical effects (delays, reverbs, post production glitches, etc) whatsoever on this section of tracks.

I keep getting this symbolic meaning out of the album art, as well as the gear list. One obvious theme being transparency, full disclosure. In a way a good chunk (6-9, 11) of this album sounds like that as well, no trickery no washing of effects to embellish a sound or emotion, it's almost like he's daring us to like his music without any of the modern flash. Not too dissimilar to what he did with Analord, but I'd argue went a step more. Analord had a lot of knob twiddling and spring reverb, this has a surprisingly low amount of that even on the songs that sound like all hardware

I'm never going to link another anthony fanto review again. This guy has used the following negatives against it:

  • His style sounds like Aphex which is vintage apparently
  • Too many notes, and didn't feel the need to understand it
  • Minipops isn't as good as the other songs
  • His DnB isn't Come To Daddy
  • His album might make other artists release music who haven't in a while

Well done. I agree its not good.

Ow lawd, that answer is totally bonkers. :facepalm:

 

They found a copy machine so they can rehash any interview already published.

 

 

Also, I think the fact the steinvord hasnt been mentioned in not even interview (but the tuss has) means that it's a conscious effort not to mention it. There might be a signed agreement to not talk about steinvord or something.

I know this is way, way late, but I noticed that when the hype was first being unleashed for this album, websites kept putting out the same image of that blimp "spotted flying over London."

 

Everyone knows that that wasn't a real blimp, right? The string is right there, in plain sight. It's and oversized balloon shaped like a blimp, probably floated for a few minutes so warp's undercover hype-generators could snap some iphone photos of it and put them on the web...
