I really want to hear these Horse Radish Prophecies.

Will someone please record the Adult Swim thing and share it with us peeps that don’t have that channel?

Thanks in advance!

My hype boaner is a little less chubbed now, was really feeling ready for an album. 4 years since Syro seems like a good interval.

 

Seems like a huge interval.

1992: SAW85-92

1993: SOSW

1994: SAWII, AB3

1995: ICBYD

1996: RDJ Album

1997: Come to Daddy

 

Not to mention 21 other EPs and singles in that period - some of which were compiled to make Classics and Compilation, effectively two more albums - not to mention the Caustic Window LP which was scrapped because he'd already moved on past it, sound-wise. It seems mad how slowly things work in the industry these days. I know more money comes from touring now, hence the bigger gaps and need to hype up every album as a 'comeback', but for an artist like Aphex I can't see that being so important. Syro feels like an age ago to me.

Ermmm....

What ? CCAI2 and Marchrom aren't good enough for ya ?

:) thought I would miss something! But that just adds to my point.. loads of stuff out since Syro. He has been as prolific last few years as he ever was in the 90's

Yeah you fanboys bein right priveledged cunts.

To be honest I’m not complaining, This ep is great news, I just find the promo a little bit over the top ? Can’t wait to hear it !!!

Someone make a virgin vs chad meme with autechre & aphex. Casually announcing then releasing 8hrs of new music vs worldwide hype building poster campaign for 5 track ep.

I can't decide which would be which though.

Yeah, the promo sums don't seem to tally up. I'm pretty sure that the subway posters didn't cost 63k or whatever and no idea what the US posters cost to advertise but the Shutter wrap would have cost 1.5-2k to print and fit aside from paying to have it there. Aphex is still niche even though he's niche royalty. Pretty sure Warp would havbe gotten some deals here and there as a record store would love to be involved in the hype I imagine so I bet the promo is not as much as it would be if a normal advertiser wanted the space.

Well I heard the other day from a mate who is a promoter that Peter Andre cost him 60k for 30min set.

Jesus, and to think they could have hired me for like half of that.

Throwing in Compilation and Classics, plus On, Ventolin and HAB which, although split over multiple formats, brought together an album's length of material each, he put out 12 album-like releases 1992-1997, plus Power Pill, GAK, two Bradley Striders, Donkey Rhubarb, Girl/Boy, Quoth, AB4, and the Universal Indictors. Recently we've had Syro, CCAI2, ODS, Cheetah, and now Collapse. Four EPs and one album. And yeah, there have been limited live things and archived tracks uploaded, which obviously mean the amount of unheard material in recent years is still pretty staggering. I'm not denying we've had a ton of new stuff to listen to, and I'm not complaining at all. I've still barely scratched the surface of the SoundCloud dump myself.

But it still seems like a bloody age since we just had a straight-up album from him. A solid 50+ minutes of new tunes. Which was my original point, I suppose: four years since Syro feels like a long time. 

Do people not class the extended field day as an album? That was the Syro follow up album for me and a jolly good one it is as well!

Apparently not.
