I'm German but couldn't think of which word that would be...?

 

It wouldn't be the first time they've done it after all, Quaristice and the Versions do have some German-esque looking titles... Sonderemawe - Sonder = Extra,Special; Tankraken - Kraken = Octopus (more feed for fish-conspiracy) ... probably terribly over-interpreted. Still, it's how I pronounce these two.

Has anyone actually ever mentioned the Bad Vilbel-thing?

Tewe is a German optical company that develop products for film cameras. So is Zeiss funnily enough so I'd say it's intentional.

that is most obscene for i would be sure that the letter 'Y' does not create an 'A' sound. Personally for your list i would say:

 

Blyz Castl - Blizz Castle

 

IO is definitively pronounced I O and no EEO or anything else, its named after one of jupiter's moons, pronounced I O. Evidence for this is the (mons) part, as mons is the terminology used to name mountains on other planets/moons.

 

SonDEre-ix is debatable, although i dont really see how the I can come before the R in pronunciation. Personally, i say Sunday Re Ix

 

Fol4 - exactly how its spelt, Fol 4, rhymes with mole 4

 

Chenc9, Chenk9, because if it was supposed to be pronounced Chence, they would have added an extra E.

 

Phylopin - Again why Fail? there is no A in the title, it should be Fieloppin.

 

Sorry to completely tear your list apart but i had to incorporate proper grammer and pronunciation rules and every track you listed violated those.

it's weird, but autechre is the only band i listen to that i couldn't tell you the titles of 3/4ths their songs... they all just seem like throwaway names, i tend to think of them in terms of colors and elements and "oh yeah, this is that song with the one bit in the middle where it goes bwauagjajgzzzcccczz..."

piezo - pee-ay-zo ( i also dunno why )

 

and

 

notwo = not-woah

 

notwotwo = not-woah-two

 

notwo = no two / no 2

 

Is what I thought, since the other one is called nofour (no 4)
