APHEX TWIN - SYRO

[Chris Toffer]

8----D~~~~

 

Man, I really hope this is the first of many new releases for the phex :) HYPED

[Nil]

How cute of bleep to immediately add Syro to your available downloads. And that you get the image and nothing but the image if you do.

 

(was hoping for a pre-leak for a sec)

 

I wonder how long they'll prevent it from leaking.

 

Anyway, do you guys know if it's possible to (partially) cancel a pre-order at bleep ? I bought the LP and CD, not knowing the Japanese edition would have an bonus track. Am considering grabbing the CD from Amazon/HMV.jp instead, even though I'm scared it might turn quite expensive...

this design is genius (not joking)

it's intriguing, unique, it stands out from everything you've seen before,

it seems to have a secret code or a hidden message

 

this is a design that will be remembered and recognized between thousands.

 

who cares it's not "beautiful" ! it's better then that

yes, the cover if very afx-y if that makes sense.

 

the last thing i want is to look at an afx cover and see some pretentious artsy bulshit.

 

the cover art makes sense is what im saying

Yeah, they could have put a "WATMM hosting fee" line on the cover tho...

[Gateaux Fabulous]

 

 

good to see richard's operation was a success

 

so the physical form of the album covers gets posted and people mostly ignore it?

 

 

is the one on the right the CD version? someone translate pls <3

 

it says

 

new album after 13 years

 

bonus track only for Japan release

 

first bath of cds come with booklet / poster (presumably text on one side, small poster on the other) -

 

bottom right box says - special offer for Tower Records - Designers Republic designed limited "clear file" i.e. plastic slip file, probably A4

 

So the thing on the right probably isn't the cd cover - it's the free plastic folder you get from Tower Records

Ugliest fucking album art ever.

[YangYing]

Ugliest fucking album art ever.

maybe,

 

but it's the best album art evah too!

[Bechuga]

Does the cover list how much the blimp cost?

[chim]

Maybe I'm really late here, but did you guys READ THIS ON WARP.NET????

 

01. minipops 67 [120.2][source field mix] [aka the manchester track]

 

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

[Guest setanor]

i can only be glad most of you whiny bastards aren't actually involved in the process of developing and approving album art

 

do you not understand how 'confounding expectations' is actually a thing that leads to confounded expectations?

[peace 7]

Yah, defo gonna be at Tower Records in Tokyo on release morning to get the limited special shitz. Maybe get an extra or 2 for investment or whatever.

 

Anyone else here gonna be in Tokyo at the time? We could meetup and sleep outside like Syro is a new iPhone, and then I can steal your copies and run away. "ALL THE SYRO IS MINE."

 

The "color on front/back clearfile" is this (except with... color and looks opaque):

pretty much somthing the last 10 or 20 pages have been jizzing about

[Herr Jan]

For the Dutchies out here, a nicely written (but cynical) article about the whole Aphex hype, mentioning watmm of course:

 

http://www.djbroadcast.nl/features/featureitem_id=2092/Wie_is_Aphex_Twin.html

The guy Rene Passet is of course sort of a veteran in following Aphex, but forgets to mention any released music after 2005's Analord (an hour+ worth of new Analord tracks, the Tuss, the live tracks so far), although the CW album is mentioned.

It's been posted a number of times already lol

 

But I don't blame you for not keeping up with like 5 different threads full of inane banter

[peace 7]

Also, some other shops in Japan have their respective custom badges and other shiz.

 

I'll be going to the Shibuya Tower Records, which is the same Tower that I bought RDJ Album at in high school.

 

It feels good to be excited about a physical release again... Here is me when I was 16 impersonating the RDJ Album cover ~1.5 years after release:

 

AHAHAHA...

 

Here is the accompanying quote from my Geocities page at the time:

In this pic, I kinda tried to impersonate the cover of Aphex Twin's "Richard D. James Album", with a slightly evil look. Very good album, by the way. I would recommend it to anyone that's into electronica. This is also the first pic that I took with my new frames. (added 5-24-98)

 

I lost that exact pair of glasses when moving back to Tokyo ~1.5 years ago. So it's AAAAAALL COMING TOGETHER!!!

 

Anyway, fuck..... SYRO.

I cancelled the CD part of my order for this reason. They were very swift about it. I just sent an email to support@bleep.com

That Minipops programme a few posts above was the first thing that popped (pun intended) into my head when I saw the Minipops title. Awful programme; I was 7 when it was on TV, and even at my tender age I could tell there was something very wrong about it.
