I'm pretty sure this is coming out September 8... Some guy guessed (leaked?) it along with the number of tracks on Reddit yesterday, also saying that it's really "experimental stuff" that gets more intense as the album progresses. Perhaps he is wrong.

 

We shall see.

so check this out guys, i dont think the album is really called syro.

it doesnt seem very aphexian to have such a short album title but thats not why i think so. read from wikipedia article about .onion domains:

 

Format

Addresses in the .onion pseudo-TLD are opaque, non-mnemonic, 16-character alpha-semi-numeric hashes which are automatically generated based on a public key when a hidden service is configured. These 16-character hashes can be made up of any letter of the alphabet, and decimal digits beginning with 2 and ending with 7, thus representing an 80-bit number in base32.

The "onion" name refers to onion routing, the technique used by Tor to achieve a degree of anonymity.

source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/.onion

 

 

if the domain is has to be automatically generated how did they get it to contain a phrase they wanted?

http://syro2eznzea2xbpi.com/

on the top it says ARTIST NAME and ALBUM TITLE

and on the tor version it says Aphex Twin and Syro

so Syro is definitely the title

but this might mean that eznzea and xbpi mean nothing and there'll only be one album

still doesnt make sense that they would be able to generate a domain that they were able to chose the first 4 characters of... unless it does and i'm just not understanding this wiki. i guess its also possible that he didnt have a name for the album and liked syro upon generating the URL. hmm.

Pitchfork already confirmed that Syro was the album title so I don't see why it wouldn't be it. I guess there could be multiple albums, who knows. There's probably more clues in the website.

How the fuck does that still sound chilled.

 

It's heavy breaks, and ambient synths.

 

IT'S FUCKING LOVELY.

This is the band camp of the guy that makes this : http://tsrono.bandcamp.com
What a bastard lol, had me fooled...

He actually put on the description of the video that it is a fake. But you know, he wants to bring some clicks to his work. It's actually bretty good.

Yeah I really enjoy his sound, but honestly, I'd rather find it on my own than by saying I make fake future AFX. It stands up on its own accord as excellent music.

Perhaps they made the tor site and utilized the random letters for the album title (hosting says the site has been there for months yeah?).

Could explain why it doesnt sound aphexian, :p

syro2eznzea2xbpi = 16 characters

 

Therefore they named the album based on whatever the first four characters would be?

 

ie. THE ALBUM TITLE IS RANDOM OMG

chiming in to say here's to all of us at watmm for keeping the 'phex in our hearts

 

From enjoying old sets and albums, to feeding the tracklists,

From posting about unreleased stuff to kickstarting CWLP

To the hilarious phtoshops, to the world-play and punnage,

From the RDJ picture porn to the rafts of speculations about what is "coming"..............

 

 

.lets just all fucking wallow in it for the last few weeks of The Nothingness.

 

A new era approaches..................set phaces to stunned!

Yeah but some of the songs are also called SYRO.

 

Whoever said about there being three albums, I like you. I like what you've said.
