Kennylogg Bubblebath Posted December 7, 2014 Share Posted December 7, 2014 It would have been nice if the track had a bit more to it, but I really like it as it is. I've always had a soft spot for 180dB, even back when it was the Vibervibed Synth Test. Of course, I think Richard definitely pushed the duration to it's limit. Any longer and it probably would have got a bit monotonous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aphex_Squarepusher_Twin Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 did vibert co-write this? i don't know if i made that up in my mind or not. i was thinking about this when i read in that recent interview he said "Aphex offered me record an album together, but I now refuse to because I'm afraid that he'll steal from me my ideas. Once we've worked together - for a track, and six months later, I heard this track, that i heard would go into the new Aphex twin album and authorship there stood only for Aphex; there was not a word about me and that's what I, in fact, wrote all the bass line and the drums." the way he frames it as theft i interpreted as a joke. it would be interesting though, if there are uncited collaborators on syro Aphex Twin – ‘Vibervibed Synth Test’ Your browser does not support the HTML5 audio tag (►) (►2) Heard within a Luke Vibert DJ set, confirmed by close friends to be Aphex. (►2) maybe a newer version. On 2014 SYRO album entitled ‘180db’. from http://rareafx.wordpress.com/unreleased-tracksremixes/, that's confirmed this track is not a collaboration... "confirmed by close friends"... maybe speculation... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tokn Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 194 db is the limit for sound in earth's atmosphere, i guess at that point the pressure variations create vacuums in between waves of air particles squished together, and they start to call it pressure waves. any more info on that? how would that sound from a distance safe enough?

entropi Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 I like 180db, more melody and less pointless ornamental programming on weak tracks! (like the "GAK" tracks, simple and efficient) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest skibby Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 'sound circled the earth' sounds impossible considering the earth is a sphere they say Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
