Anticipating SYRO the new (2014) album by Aphex Twin

ideal for a c90

er, no. a c90 is 2x45 with a gap in the middle.

i think the last time i burnt audio cds was when i djed but i've since found out that the decks in question would happily play mp3s off the same cds.

oh, and when giving stuff to other people, especially those non-cyber friends. 20p of cdr is still the cheapest option.

Do people still burn CDs?

Ssnb = instant classic

I mean, I can put it onto a 'phone and play it via a UHF transmitter gizmo, I do that with my Spotify occasionally..

does not exist.

record it to video using an E180

donkey rhubarb remix <3 <3

for folks who are looking to find an easier way into this stuff, I recommend a playlist of the longer (5+ mins) tracks to start with, a lot of them are amazing. by my count there's 67, not as daunting as 180 or whatever we're up to

put it on shuffle and let it roll, I'm doing it right now

if you go up to 6 mins you miss Plinky Plonk, Ssnb, early morning clissold,somewhereOTTGTBOG and dulcimer dub, don't do that

I just put them into alphabet order, that's as random as any, and easier to keep tabs on.

Its basically ten CDR discs of the old playable format.

eventually a box set, I made the first one so far. Sounds cool..

Aphex Twin - MARCHROMT30a Edit 2b 96 (Warp)
Aphex Twin's MARCHROMT30a Edit 2b 96, the Japanese bonus track for Syro, will be released on vinyl for a worldwide audience, backed with a new version of Syro's 'XMAS_EVET10 [120] (thanaton3 mix)' and an alternate take on MARCHROMT.

Release Date: 6th April 2015

They should release all 10 hours of this stuff as a Japanese bonus set. Like, re-release Syro with 10 other bonus CDs.

I wonder if I should buy this as like an investment piece? The first 4 Analords and the LFO/AFX split I picked up seem to be fetching a little bit on Discogs at least

sigh, *throws money at screen*

For as much money as I wanted to throw Richard's way between 2002-2014, but couldn't due to the dearth of releases, I'm happy to finally be able to do so now.

is he still doing the soundcloud leaks??

nothing for about a week now. but 173 is probably enough.

Now Mike Paradinis has taken up the mantle and gone even further back:

including was is supposed to be a 1982 recording from when he was 10 years old:

also tons of mid 80s pre-rave new wave-esque type demos.

The enigmatic @AphexTwin is about to release another track: http://blbrd.cm/L6d567

Uhhh kinda feel like dude's jettisoned the "enigmatic" thing. Some journos be reluctant to let go of their Homeric epithets.

5 new ones, no download option

https://soundcloud.com/user48736353001/tracks

nice

and another - 6 Gear Smudge

+ 2 more in the last 20 minutes

3 Slothscrape is beautiful and sad

+ 8

First pass through the new batch, 24 Tsim 2 and Medievil Rave Mk2 are the standouts for me.

all gone?

still gone

i downloaded the first ~120 song batch but haven't kept up since. is there like a running dropbox folder everyone's using that i can just periodically visit?

I have the first 170 or so... but none of what was posted the last couple weeks

I don't think they were downloadable at any point

The first lot were.

Still haven't burned more than cd1 of the 10cd set, but then again, was playing it in the car 10 mins ago.

Mark what part of "the last couple of weeks" did you fail to understand there?

The demonisation of the SNP.

There's the third party Firefox plugin that gives you a download button; I used it to grab the ones from last week through Monday. But they are 128 bitrate.

The last 32 tracks, uploaded by Herr Jan of the watmm forum:

He's back -> https://soundcloud.com/user18081971

https://soundcloud.com/user18081971/tracks = in the order they were uploaded, as before
https://soundcloud.com/user18081971/comments = do believe it's really him, the older comments are back as well

appears to be his birthday. hope he keeps this for a while

no new material yet, right? that last batch was full of gems, just getting to them now. sheesh...

Posted 3 days ago3 days Adger Douth says at 0:28: are you still saving a lot of tracks for yourself…stuff well never hear?
Posted 3 days ago3 days user18081971 says at 0:28: yeah the last 8 years worth!

interesting. i wonder if that means now (or once this leak series is over) the well is pretty much dry on pre-2007 material?

3 new tracks + a couple of the earlier tracks now have download enabled (higher bitrate)

2 of them are from Bradley's Robot EP, 1993, btw

Well, that comment makes sense: the old stuff isn't coming out as 'new', the last eight years just might..
