That would be great. he did say something about hat music at some point, but he also hinted at the names of the next two album so...at least I think he did.

Finally got round to making an account, what did i miss?

Cheers RDJ, Syro is great, a thing of beauty, a love epic, sublime, can't praise your work enough.

hi richrud!

[Zephyr_Nova]

I believe the imminent other shit will be the "making of Syro" doc, recorded over the last 10 years and edited together/narrated by Wernor Herzog.

[YangYing]

Hate to say it, but have heard Syro only 5 times, haven't heard it for two weeks and I haven't had any urge to hear it again...

Exactly this.

 

I love some of the tracks in it, but I have over 1k tracks to listen to... no time left for multiple listens.

 

And I don't really feel the urge either, iunno, it's odd.

All I know is that Joyrex was going crazy about the whole "badger" thing for quite a while. My bet is that it has to do something with a badger.

I have been listening to Syro daily since release. Usually multiple times straight through. It keeps getting better and better each time. It makes me want to stop whatever i'm doing and just LISTEN. Not enough music compels me this way.

I feel like it's a totally different experience based on however i end up listening, be it vinyl on headphones vs speakers, or various qualities of digital on headphone or speakers. Every configuration is unique. This album fascinates me as both an obsessive fan of music and compulsive maker of music.

nahhh. I like it's super poppy nature. It only bothered me because I wasn't used to it.

Admittedly, after I wrote that I forcefully put on Syro and really enjoyed it, even to such a degree that I played it three times in a row and was humming some parts constantly at a party that night. But after that I still had hardly any urge to hear it again (but when I do...!). Like you said, there's so much good stuff to listen to. We are really spoiled basically :)

I had exactly the same experience but with Druqks when it came out. Was such a massive disappointement after all the classic 90's albums. I liked it but it was blah. Took me maybe 5-10 years to fully appreciate it for what it is and to detach myself from the initial disappointment. Syro on the other hand is the album I was expecting when Druqks came out so it was an instant love affair.

Drukqs blew me away when I first heard it and Syro was an instant hit for me.

play this album, even if you don't have the urge to listen to it. you don't have the urge, because you haven't given it a chance yet, obv. it takes many a listens to fully wrap your head around his music, remember? you have to let it soak; rinse, repeat. play it so much that it becomes background noise to you, so you're not even listening at many points, and then when a poignant moment occurs it'll jolt you out of your slumber, and then you'll start to take notice of it's brilliance, i promise. the lansdcapes begin to form, and your free to explore. let the sounds soak subconsciously, through the pineal,. the quicker you tune out drope in or wehatever, the quicker you'll love this music
