Herr Jan Posted January 17, 2015 Share Posted January 17, 2015 I wonder if this is going to be RDJ just showing off on this EP, like going for Frank Zappa was trying to achieve on G-Spot Tornado and make music that's supposed to be impossible to be played by people or something. Also, I really hope this doesn't leak, it'd be so predictable at this point, I can't remember the last somewhat major album that didn't leak a week or 2 (at least) before official release. Even the record Kanye West locked in a safe until he sent it off for pressing leaked a week early. I want to pick up the 12" in the post after work on Friday and stick it on without any interruptions, is that too much to ask, 2015? I'd would rather make that connection to that Zappa project with Squarepushers robot EP. Don't think it'll apply to Aphex, especially if we can believe the description of Jbrace1970 above :) I'm interested as to why he separated these tracks from the more accessible tracks on Syro, because putting them together in one go 'really tied Drukqs together' for me. I'm getting the impression that they weren't taken seriously or just viewed as interludes, and with this he wants to give them a bit more credit? I don't know, but I do know that I am going to put Syro plus these EP's in one shuffled playlist Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know, but I do know that I am going to put Syro plus these EP's in one shuffled playlist Perhaps he didn't want people to think he was trying to recreate drukqs. And I get what you mean, those little tracks sort of justified the length. When you listen to the whole thing without the piano/acoustic bits, it sounds a bit awkward, plus it leaves only 5 tracks from disc 2. So many tracks are so very different, punctuated nicely with small compositions (which is imo why drukqs is so incredibly unique). That particular purpose isn't really here on this release, so I wonder how these tracks will live inside their own specific release, if it'll be anywhere near as minimal as, or sound anything like the stuff on drukqs.

khov Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 currently listening to the cd, sounds really good so far, the very first seconds reminds me of the "i heard the baby moving" weird voices from the tuss (track 5 whose name i cannot remember) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
khov Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 Syro seems like a very self aware record in terms of sound & production, with all those vintage synths (with even those jan hammer percussions) from the late 70s+80s. The whole syro palette seems really synths based, while on the ep, all the tracks have those acoustic sounds palette (prepared piano, real drums), so it make sense those 2 records with 2 strong identities are separated. Thinks of a small dysfunctionnal gamelan ensemble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

psn Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 I wonder if this ep starts something like the analord seriesWould be a total of three EPs then. Analord released number n-1 first. Also, the rest will be AFX. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skeletron Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 Are those freebies Japan only? I can't imagine Target in the US carrying anything more challenging than daft punk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucas Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 pfff I want to hear that so hard... also thought about the Analord thing btw. It would make sense actually. Like a series of EPs based on RDJ's experiments with this new tool. Richard plz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Herr Jan Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 I'm actually a bit relieved there is no Japanese bonus tracks... Still doubting to pick this up although it'll be way too expensive and I already ordered the CD and 12" from Bleep. Meh.edit: so where's jasondonervan at? He's always the first one getting these in, maybe he already has it by now :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alzado Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 where did you hear it? a friend is in distribution and last night came round and give me it.its defiantly what u would call an ep you will see what i mean when u hear it.if u like mixing records its a fucking dream. ok bear with me me u people know how to word these things,I'm familiar with all back catalogue and as far as experimental goes its all pretty experimental but this is new as its kind of like one of those remix competitions u get where u can mix it all together and make your own track.but the sound is those nice acoustic sounds of drukqs,ruglen holon,prep gwarlek but with those product29 beats If this turns out to be accurate I will be so excited. Sounds amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
