actually i'd love it if they released an album with a bunch of unfinished unreleased snippits, somehow mixed into a cohesive format.

Digital watermarking - as far as I can tell - is really good, covering situations such as digital to analogue conversions (I really thought there would be an easy way around it). It's a solid system for the labels - journos are rightly anxious about being named as the cause of a leak). So you can't play your copy with a pc and then record the audio directly from the soundcard with software, without these watermarking being transferred onto the recorded file? Someone should hack this damn system. the digital watermarking is most likely actually in the waves of the songs themselves - not matter how much you re-record, transcode, etc, it will still be present (no matter how inaudible) in the recording. it's not like copy protection, there is no way around it.

yes but "we" want to hear it NOW. the purchasing can be done later. i'm definitely buying it on cd/vinyl as opposed to bleep but if it's leaked first i'll listen to the leak. i did the same with untilted and it definitely enhanced my listening experience when i actually bought the cd and got the chance to hear it in a lossless format.

No LOLs for sale in the Gear Box. Besides, no MIDI interface. i'm determined to build a midi controlled lolbox now.

ITS GREAT GUYS I GOT A COPY AND OH MAN LET ME JUST SAY THEY "GOT OUT THE ACOUSTIC GUITARS" FOR THIS ONE.

I thought they did as well. Checked back on the AFX section in Warp and it was indeed announced in July 2001 as a double CD. If Quaristice turns out to be a double CD, what will the vinyl release be like...? 3 vinyls, each with 6.6666666666666666666666666666667 tracks

actually i found that i like the second half of the album a lot more than the first half.

That's a Yamaha Portasound. And the ergonomic keyboard belongs to my housemate, I dunno how he manages to use it!

new house setup (my housemate is also in my band so some of this is his stuff).

Ok, I haven't listened to any of the other entries yet, but here's a little something i came up with in an hour and a half, hope it's appropriate: Tabs for harold (3:26, 4966400 bytes) My first serious full electronic track in over a year!

Yes that's correct. Also not pictured are a couple of multi-fx boxes and a homemade big muff.

A little messy at the moment, but who cares.

I'll most probably be playing a shoegaze/guitar set at Hyde Park Hotel next Friday, the 25th. Also playing will be Hooper's Store and The Sugar Army. Come along!
