Time Tourist 0 Posted June 4, 2017 Guys, i think the new countdown is for a new album. If you consider it from Japanese time, it ends at midnight of July 7, which is a Friday... So I'm guessing it's a new release. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rubin Farr 76 Posted June 4, 2017 Maybe another gig related release? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Time Tourist 0 Posted June 4, 2017 I can't find a gig for that day... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brisbot 68 Posted June 4, 2017 Hell, aphex probably has another 230 tracks worth listening to that he could easily release on soundcloud. He'll make 20 vinyls with 10 tracks on them each, releasing them at 20 shows. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
d-a-m-o 74 Posted June 4, 2017 please be a regular album ffs Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brisbot 68 Posted June 4, 2017 lol. Try not to think of these tracks as official. He hasn't had a 'big' release since Cheetah. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Time Tourist 0 Posted June 4, 2017 lol. Try not to think of these tracks as official. He hasn't had a 'big' release since Cheetah. Yes and cheetah was an ep, last full album was Syro, which unbelievably is already three years ago. Sounds about the right time for a new full album to me.

Brisbot 68 Posted June 4, 2017 Oh come on, it's 2 years and about 9 months. It isn't 3 years! We aren't that much older yet! We got 3 months to go. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mesh Gear Fox 7 Posted June 4, 2017 i think saying a full album would be nice is obvious is it not? why wouldn't we want that? i'd be cool with whatever good on em. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
misc 0 Posted June 4, 2017 Guys, i think the new countdown is for a new album. If you consider it from Japanese time, it ends at midnight of July 7, which is a Friday... So I'm guessing it's a new release. Someone on reddit pointed out that a load of Japanese back catalogue reissues are due out on the same day. Possibly to coincide with whatever the countdown is for? https://www.reddit.com/r/aphextwin/comments/6f2ii5/japanese_album_back_catalogue_reissues_dated_for/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Vaaler9 2 Posted June 5, 2017 (edited) no but in all seriousness. It's the next album, to be released in September. woooaaahhh. you seem confident (or do you actually know these things?? :)). It still seems so quick because every week or so there is something aphex related to obsess over.. but hell yes bring it on.

WhitleyStriber 1 Posted June 5, 2017 It's gotta be a new release. If it's linking to a subdomain of Warp then my bets all on a new album. New shit is imminent guys. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
popeonarope 0 Posted June 5, 2017 (edited) I think we should keep our expectations in check just so we're not left disappointed come July 6th. If a new album is truly imminent, I'd imagine there would be a bit more buzz/new clever marketing (like the blimp) than just a boring countdown on the website. I'd love to be wrong, but I'm just not feeling the imminence. Edited June 5, 2017 by popeonarope Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The latter one being identified as a Jlin collab (purportedly). I don't know, I feel like he'd drop more new tunes in his sets to build up hype. At the very least, whatever ends up happening July 6th, I'm not expecting a follow up to Syro. Leaning towards it being a sale or MAYBE a new EP. Again, I hope I'm wrong! .

goDel 70 Posted June 5, 2017 I'd consider the sets at the festivals and the london field day lp buzz. Does it have to be a blimp in the sky? Personally, not going to bother speculating. Looks like somethings happening though. So theres your buzz. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ivan Ooze 35 Posted June 5, 2017 ccai2 had no buzz and neither did deejayseleks cheetah had some of the weirdest anti buzz marketing ever i think they did their best to create massive buzz so far also afx on soundpuke from what i remember right after the cheetah ep: i wanted to release a chill summer album with tracks i like, i don't want the papparazzizzi camping in my yard right now, plenty of time for bangers later yah yah Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
