It is still on his Instagram ! An album based on his Rebuild lives would be amazing, I guess it would also be a way for him celebrate this point in his career.

It sounds amazing, thanks ! I also stumbled upon the XAOC Devices Tallin, which looks more complete, saturation-wise. Aaaaand the AtoVprojekt "cDVCA" which is a crazy pack of overdrive possibilities - but also, a bit more expansive. Anyway, I will probably have to think a bit more of the VCAs because while watching the Persephone demos, I discovered they also have a phaser which is HUGE. Soooooo I might start with the wavefolder + phaser to play a bit more with the Moog alone, and get 1 or 2 VCAs in a few months ? Btw damo, do you do eurorack ? Would love to hear about your setup !

I picked Two Point Campus, very funny sim game, however the game seems to hide its complexity during the first few levels (probably to avoid discouraging new players). Good for them but I feel like the first levels will just be tutorials that I will have to plow through before reaching the "real" game. Had the same feeling with Two Point Hospital and never went past the 3rd mission or something ?

I am (very slowly) building a modular system which I intend to design as a complement to my Moog Matriarch, i.e. using the Moog's oscs and filters with various eurorack options. For now I have MI Beads (which I love despite finding it very difficult to use) and Intellijel's Plonk (will use it as a perc module mostly). I am planning on getting a Joranologue Fold 6 to add wavefolding to the Moog, and a Pam Pro Workout to clock everything. I am now looking for a nice VCA, with a bit of character (I've been looking to LPG, or VCAs with distortion) - I'll have the Matriarch VCAs for cleaner, more straightforward output. If anybody has any advice I'll be glad to listen to it !

Yeah, this + let's not forget how he tried to destroy the IDM scene by eating beards and turning Richard D James into a gorilla...

Blackbox Life Recorder / Whitesphere Death Player double EP deluxe boxset Bleep exclusive, limited to 100 heavyweight fresh electric blue-vinyl copies with subsequent represses of 3000 copies expected in 2 weeks 2x 15mn EPs, one-sided vinyls with etched Weirdcore artwork on the B-side Housed in individual linen cloth sleeves, with embroidered Aphex Twin(TM) logo Comes with a replica of the official Sonar 10 inches EP pre-order card (please note that these replicas do not allow you to order the Barcelona EP)

Richard taught us a very important lesson on the matter with the pretend analog track !!

I honestly always bought the legend of Analord being 100% analog, from the machines used to the recording to the vinyl pressing. I'm no purist, and only ever listened to it digitally anyway but your post surprises me !

I know fm synthesis is digital but for some reason both of these track give me Analord-y vibes. I really enjoy it !

Flol what a mess this release has been. No hate tlon Warp tho, Aphex Twin clearly isn't the easiest artist to manage ?

Omg Ivan thank you so much for posting this haha. Every single vinyl release is 10-15€ more expensive than it was 3 years ago. In my local record store, Amber repress was 25€, LP5 repress was 30€, Draft 7.30 is 40€.

I fully agree. From what I understand the idea is to hurt their credibility before their IPO. The other thing is that their CEO seem to take things on a very personal level, and that doesn't help. The only certain thing is that Reddit will not be the same after this episode!

It keeps on delivering. Apparently a big subreddit (/r/worldnews iirc) promoted everybody to moderation team. In the meantime, some reddit 3rd party apps are moving to Lemmy (i.e., Fediverse Reddit). Lemmy and Kbin (another Fediverse alternative) are on the verge of hitting 1 million subscribers. Conclusion: don't consider your userbase idiots.

Richard be like : "give me all your money"

durichroma was fire tho ???

Pretty sure that when I checked this morning, Tidal has the info that the 3 other tracks would be released July28th. Glad if we get to give it a listen in a week rather than in a month !

Lol how is it even possible for a label like Warp to screw so badly one of their biggest artist's release?? I wanted to stream Blackbox on repeat the whole afternoon but guess I'll have to wait. Also weird not to have options to pre-order the 12" right now

So 4 tracks EP incoming, I don't think it will lead to a fully fledged LP, Collapse had similar scale advertising and yet it was an EP. Anyway I'm very excited, can't listen to the title track right now but pretty sure it will blow my mind !

The whole reddit shitshow is both entertaining and sad to witness. I have been extensively using a 3rd-party app (Reddit Sync) for the past 7 years, and this is what made the website enjoyable to me. I love how the users are fighting against the CEO, in a very reddit-y way, ironically (the blackout was a thing, but recently moderators of /r/InterestingAsFuck enabled posting NSFW content which is a great blow dealt to reddit's frontpage). This made me delve deeper into the Fediverse, I am currently testing Kbin as a reddit alternative and it works well. The size of the community and overall kindness make it a very pleasant place. Quitting Reddit also led me to rediscover what I loved about WATMM - the only place on the Internet that really never disappointed me and will forever hold a special place in my heart

Could be the name and artwork of the next Orb album tho

I fully agree, I don't think it's a matter of wearing the right pants, but rather of just getting older sadly !

Club to club festival were the Chre played last year !

Summer 23 is gonna be awesome, first the Aphex tracks/speculation and now this ?

Yeah, or just fly a blimp over London to advertise the thing idk

I guess it's disappointing for people attending Sonar and hoping to come back home with the exclusive vinyl, but at least everyone who attended the show will be able to get the thing, it doesn't look that bad from the outside. (but I don't even understand what's going on right now with the 3D things, QR code etc )
