APHEX TWIN - SYRO

just listening to it now. hmm, won't hold up to all your hype that's for sure but some nice moments.

I was thinking the exact opposite, if anything can live up to hype this is it!

even though there are these recordings of metz etc they obviously do not catch the detail & sutitles of the track so we will all still get a big suprise when we listen to the mastered album version, its abit like reading a good synopsis of film but not knowing how it will fold out.

I'm kinda less hyped about Syro now. I love metz/singapore/manchester, but I've heard them a thousand times already. I have a fear those will be the best tracks on the new album & the rest of the tracks won't live up to the hype-machine, 13 year drought expectations. Really, expecting a perfect album from front to back from Rich is completely unrealistic imo. This could be the worst comment in the thread so far, but it's how I'm feeling. I hope I'm proven wrong.

 

I agree that you shouldn't expect a perfect album from front to back. That seems to be the problem a lot of people had with the BOC release last year. It wasn't really a 13 year drought, though: more like 7.

 

Yea, I wasn't really counting analord/Tuss, I kind of put them in a different category. I was just going back to druqks for some reason.

I wish I was joking. These are either real or the most intensely rdj studied and rehearsed fakes. I have not followed this car crash of a thread so can someone post up any full album fakes/leaks so I can compare?

 

Saying that though, some tracks harken to past material which would suggest the above latter.

lol @ jasonsleuthervan beating the system with its own system

pretty neat

I'm happy we're getting studio versions, but fuckkk I wish I hadn't blasted them 1,000,000 times over the last few years...

So either the whole stuff jasondonervan has come up with is part of the great marketing campaign by Warp incl. taking the piss of Watmmers. Or Syro will be just a luck-warm follow-up to Analord and The Tuss.

They're fantastic. Only diff is that I know them really well, so yah. Oh well who gives a shit, there are 10 more tracks anyway with that bonus one!

Just ran it through the copyright grinder, nothing doing. The alarm bells were ringing immediately for the other videos I tried earlier.

 

Okey.. thank you anyway for your great work! :)

Metz track, luke warm (luck warm isn't a thing), are you fucking serious?

I think it's great these 4 tracks are confirmed for the release. More Tuss like tracks! I was afraid I would be let down by the next release. I'm already very happy. Funky acid bass lines and crystal clear drum fuckery FTW!

metz track is warm like your first pussy

metz is not on the release.

have the track lengths been confirmed at all?

and stop with the read the rules shit, what is that?

Those deep, whip-like, tape-speed manipulated beats (or whatever it is) on 4 bit 9d api+e+5 are going to be fucking brutal in high quality.

Japan bonuses, hadn't seen these before. Apologies if jazz.

Clear file

And for all those who've ordered from Amazon Japan, you might get a magnet in with your CD... I got the Japan-only bonus stickers with Exai last year, so they don't have a problem sending them with international orders.

It'd be great if that face fold pic was a case for all versions of the album, would make it fit in with his older covers and win nostalgia points. I like it anyway, juss sayin'.

If you've read them you know what we mean by them :)

Metz has just been confirmed. You can't expect the track lengths to be the same as the live ones, for obvious reasons. You can however match the BPM's, which have been released.

So there are already four tracks identified. Nice work!

I knew I could count on appropriate replies at Watmm :)

Thing is, so far Aphex has always changed with every release. If he is now - after 13 years of Aphex Twin hiatus - is coming with the same stuff he has released a few years ago, it's pretty lame to me. E.g. I wouldn't want another ICBYD today. I wanted it in 1995, yes and still love it, yes. But not having a follow-up of it.

Where do I have to order from to get a chartreuse sticker? They're giving out chartreuse stickers, right? I hope Bleep sends chartreuse stickers. God I fucking want a chartreuse sticker.

All this extra shit they're sending out is confusing. Who's getting what? There's also a Texan record store that will send out Syro cards with a digital code on it or some shit. But it's limited to only that store for some reason.

Fucking ace detective work, Jason - and if anyone's in doubt that the rest of the tracks won't hold up to the 'known' stuff he's played live... well, trust me - that's just the tip of the iceberg.

1000 posts about these fu*king 3 tracks !
its confirmend, no its not, yes it is, look at the pbm, no its not, yes it is, YES NO YEEES NO..
