I've been in aphex overload lately w/ the caustic window album, syro, the new EP and soundcloud tracks...

 

did anybody who bought the special edition actually listen to the bonus track...

 

SYROBONKUS - 300 x 300mm Intaglio print from metalwork mother plate, hand printed on 280gsm Somerset Velvet Radiant White, presented in casebound print folio


for the amount of money they charged for it I hope it was this looped over and over

This album is continuing to live past 20+ listens for me and is just as good as the first time I heard it - no it's even better every listen

 

I don't know if I would really rank it up there with drukqs but this is a lot more than quite good

 

relistening on a rip of the vinyl instead of CD and its breathing new life into it almost - sounds so great*

*edit1:(maybe placebo lol I'll have to do some more side by sides but i swear it's richer)

*edit2:okay nvm definitely hearing many things i didnt hear before. alot more textural variation in the drums

Vinyl is deffo more dynamic, closer to Tuss production/mastering which for my money is the best of any braindance ever

Can't find any info about this, but I miss the chants that were blended in at the end of the Metz version, what were the chants actually from?

It's a nice bullshit, a kind of gadget. Nothing more. The sound that comes out is only the insignificant noise ... and it's wanted. it's just a paper to frame and hang on a wall... :spiteful:

RDJ has truly succeeded in shaking up the pop world with Syro, as he intended (according to interviews). I hope he is feeling as unstoppable as I feel he is!

Syro is great and I'd say Xmaseve might be the highlight of his whole (and now very massive) discography. Worthy of the Grammy for that alone. Still really enjoying that + circlont6a, syro and papat4 which I think are the best tracks.

 

Doesn't touch drukqs or saw1 for me but it's still better than 99% of the stuff out there.

 

Also congrats rich on the grammy
