>bland acid techno wankery
A lot of the Analord series was Acid-y and that's his best work

More of the same is fine by me

>>49192236
What were you expecting? Another Ambient album? The new album will probably resemble I Care Because You Do more than anything.

>>49192236
Did you even listen to Analord? It's literally some of his most interesting work and it's acid as fuck

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cKa0bGZzSpE

i dunno how one could listen to this and not expect the new album to be phenomenal in every way

>>49192255
>an album with material made in 2007-2014 will resemble an album containing material from 1990-1994

>>49192277
I was referring to the style, acid. Obviously it won't sound as dated.

i too thought analord was kinda dull, at least in comparison to his other work. I never got into his acid stuff as much

>>49192271
fuk mane dis sum gud shit

guys I've listened to nothing but Aphex since the blimp thing, I'm so hype for the album

Dude, i just asked my friend who lives in Bergen. Syro does not mean acid

>>49192852
>>49192992
syro is the way it's pronounced in western sweden

source: norse people from watmm

>>49192844
Syren/syra/syro, depends on dialect. Some say syro.

there will be two albums

Syr means cheese in Slovak, so I think this album is going to be very cheesy

>>49192236
except aphex doesn't make techno

>>49192271

>implying

>>49193142
Have you even heard half of RDJ's material?

Richard got left behind by electronic music.

He's no longer an innovator.

>>49192244
If you consider Analord this best work you seriously do not know anything about electronic music production. Analord is not very impressive compared to his mid 90's albums.

>implying it won't be an album full of minimalist and dissonant contemporary classical pieces influenced by Krysztof Penderecki and Steve Reich

>>49193212
oh yeah its alright mate sounds a bit like goldie

>>49193216
Who gives a shit? Long as the music's good it doesn't matter how supposedly "innovative" he's being.

>>49193216
Rather, some people made a wrong turn, and Rish will show us what's on the other side.

>>49193235
A large chunk of Analord is legimately better produced and mixed than his earlier stuff.

>>49193207
>labeling different shit
all I am fucking hearing is a bunch of drum patterns being experimented and played around with each other with creative intentions, the first thing that comes to mind shouldn't really be what kind of music it is

>>49193235
what if he's choosing it based on what he likes and what he doesnt, as opposed to how impressive a feat of production it is? you know, like a music fan judging the end result as opposed to someone assessing the technical aspect of the creative process.

>>49193244
With track titles named after drum machines and synths, I somehow doubt it.

>>49192236
hyped as fuck but id rather not it be more acid stuff his better at ambient and breakcore stuff

>>49193216
This is true, however
He has a good hang of melodies and personally i like the 90's sound a lot. I bet the 90's acid is gonna make a huge comeback in underground music in lets say 10-15 years. And then he'll be relevant once again.
He is gonna be fine, he is a little music autist after all, he'll figure it out.

About fake.

doesnt he always use other names when he does acid, AFX for example? when he uses the name aphex twin it's always been IDM type stuff

>album title is swedish for "the acid"
>album confirmed for collab with Hampus Gronvall

>>49193250
I've always got the impression that each of his different aliases are for different styles/approaches of music.

>>49193327
With the pure acid stuff maybe, but there's plenty of acid influence in his Aphex material as well.

>>49193298
It's made ten years later ffs do you REALLY think so?

It's very basic though, it's like he made it for fun instead of challenging himself (also why i think this is because of the AFX name), but each to his own.

>>49193306
Analord is good and all that, but the 90's stuff is the definition of Aphex Twin, it's where it's really at. Analord is a lot of fun but basic as i stated before.

>>49193327
I think he just changes when he feels like it
I mean AFX has still incorporated both his Breakcore and Techno sides

He just gives a new album an alias he thinks suits it

>>49193353
That's true but with "Aphex Twin" every album has been sort of experimental and often boundary pushing, and his always diving deep into stuff like experimenting with ambience or experimenting with beats. I would expect him to do something a bit more out there than The Tuss/AFX esque acid if his using his main alias again

>>49193363
Depends what you class as challenging. I'd imagine with Analord he was working with a lot of limitations. He pulls off some technically quite impressive stuff considering it's all analogue gear.
Also I think some of the tracks have more depth than you give them credit for. Analord ranges from short sketches to pretty fleshed out (and lengthy) tracks.

>>49193419
Aphex Twin is definitely the outlet for his most experimental material. Although I wouldn't group The Tuss in with his regular acid stuff either. Rushup Edge had some pretty elaborate production.

Album art? Anyone got a source for this?

The album leaked, guys. It's on NAR.

>>49193487
Possible back cover maybe. Has the old Warp logo though so I'm guessing fake.

>>49193371
AFX is proto and demo material he throws together before deciding whether to flesh it out as Aphex Twin or keep it as an AFX side-project. See how Analogue Bubblebath by AFX predates SAW 85-92 and Hangable Auto Bulb predates RDJ Album.

>>49193425
You're saying he is working with limitations. Please explain how that is not making your sound more basic in the long run? Also he used an 707 (i'm pretty sure about this, i own one myself) which is digital so it's not entirely analog but maybe hardware, idk.

>>49193487

>>49193487
The album art is in OP's picture; it's not a folded picture of Richard, it's him holding the album up to his face

>>49193487
this would make a dope cover
>>49193498
the Warp logo hasn't really changed at all though

>>49193507
I'd argue that working with limitations actually makes you think more creatively because you're forced to be inventive within the bounds you've set yourself. You end up doing stuff you wouldn't have thought of otherwise.
For the record I'm not arguing that Analord is anywhere near as flashy from a production perspective as, say, Drukqs but it isn't basic either. Tracks don't necessarily need a million hyper-edits and snare rushes in order to be well-composed.

>>49193216

On what evidence do you make that claim? He hasn't released anything under any alias since 2006 so I'm intrigued as to how you presume to assess whether any of his work has been 'left behind by electronic music'

I believe he's been working throughout his entire absence,he just hasn't wanted to release anything

>>49193571
OH SHIIIIT

>>49193510

You have so many machines, Richard!!!

So was the leak earlier not real?

>>49193929
None of the leaks were real.

Aren't .onion addresses randomly generated? Is there anyway to make sure your address begins with a a specific word or is it likely the album name was chosen after the address was created?

>>49193298
No it isn't. No no no it fucking isnt.

But this is 4chan and everything is an out-contrarian eachother competition so I guess you won you fuckin little melon.

>>49194189
Why don't you think so?
Not trying to be contrarian either. I genuinely think the production in https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RsUUviefQSM is significantly better balanced than anything on SAW or ICBYD.

>>49192236
It would be a vaporwave album.

>>49194955
ok thank bae

Seriously though, is acid ambient not a thing?

>>49194944
his aphex twin stuff is much better than any of his other aliases IMO, unless you count steinvord, which is pretty cool.

>>49194944
there's only one track by him i truly enjoy. polygon window - quoth.

everything else is overrated garbage. especially his ambient work.

>>49194984
Was Steinvord ever confirmed to be RDJ?

>>49194977
try selected ambient works 85-92. it's probably the closest you'll get.>>49194999

>>49194973

>>49194841

>>49195004
Already love it though. Well thanks anyway, man

>>49194998

>Having an opinion this shit

Just end it pal.

>>49195023
i will never ever understand the aphex twin/rdj hype.

>>49194999
didn't people think it was a RDJ/Squarepusher collab?

have they ever collabed before? i feel like they have.

>>49195017
well shit. where can i find them?

>>49194998
Out of curiosity, what other stuff have you heard from him?

>>49195042
There was speculation that it was either RDJ or Skrillex

It was clearly somebody's side project as there's no other releases under the name.

>>49195048
the big releases. i've always been meaning to get into his acid techno work because that would probably be more up my alley, but i just don't find the motivation to do so.

what i mostly don't get is how people can wank over the SAW albums. absolutely nothing special about them.

>>49192236
Syro is actually dialect.

Syren is "the acid"

>>49195042
im pretty sure squarepusher had something to do with it, not so sure about rich though. and despite them being such good friends and admirers of each other's music they've only released one collab track, heard here:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5259lk-rPBU

>>49194901

Plastikman - Consumed

at least in a few places.

>>49195058
i don't think skrillex could do something like that. he seems pretty bad at making anything that isn't brostep.

>>49195042
>>49195058
>Squarepusher - STEINbolt
>Aphex Twin - VORDhosbn

>>49195065
you don't listen to much ambient music, do you?

>>49195111
oh, well that clears it up.

>>49195065
I definitely agree SAW 85-92 is insanely overhyped.
His AFX and Caustic Window stuff might be worth looking into for his acid material. Maybe The Tuss as well.

>>49195034
most people worship him because of how he pushed contemporary electronic so far creating most of the well known traits of IDM, he did everything first.

also personally for me his a genius at melody, the playful nostalgic childlike melodies (see fingerbib). Or how he can create vivid atmospheric scenery using little sounds and effects (see domino)

>>49195162
>he did everything first
Not true.

>>49195128
well what is much. i've listened to enough ambient music. people always assume that you're not into either electronic music, dance music or ambient music if you don't like aphex twin. i'm primarily into that music, i just don't understand what's special about rdj.

>>49195153
>His AFX and Caustic Window stuff might be worth looking into for his acid material. Maybe The Tuss as well.

yeah that's what i've been meaning to do for like five years now.

>>49195175
that was an overstatement yeah. if you want to be autistic about it he did a lot of things first

>>49194999
I reckon Steinvord was a moniker for tracks from a few different artists. The EP itself sounds more Squarepusher than anything.
RDJ might've had a hand in some of the Myspace tracks.

>>49195162
>most people worship him because
without him there would be no Kid A
simple

>>49195162

I think for some people it either clicks or not. The first time I heard drukqs I thought it was brilliant. Some people think it's shit.

>>49195208
so, rock kids.

>>49195208
Autechre was a major influence for that too.

>>49195208
epick meme, friend

>>49195208
I find it hilarious how he said in an interview he thinks radiohead is boring. He always says really douchey things or bullshits people in interviews but his a hilarious eccentric nontheless.

>>49195238
how so
>>49195230
nice elitism you got there brer

>he'll never do a track like windowlicker again

>>49195255
>nice elitism you got there brer

please explain to me how i am wrong on that one.

>>49195214
>I think for some people it either clicks or not.

thats pretty much the case for all music. I really think it depends on personality factors how adventurous you are how emotional you are your current mindset etc opinion is complicated and weird

>>49195277
Good. I don't want him to rehash old tracks.

>>49195251

His interviews are like 90% trolling

>>49195349
Venetian Snares does that too. I'm starting to think eccentric creative geniuses are just trolls by nature

>>49195251
i remember that mtv interview he did where he basically says he thought the icct hedral orchestration philip glass did was shit but he included it on donkey rhubarb anyway

>>49195372
lol omg i know what you mean lyke omg lik mac macdemacarco
such goofballs LOL

>>49195372
>rdj
>venetian snares
>eccentric creative "genuises"

oh boy

>>49195372

I think it's just that people like that prefer to be left alone in their basements to work on projects and interviews are irritating.

>>49195396
leave the creative genius bit out if you want to be an contrarian edgelord but they are both objectively undeniably eccentric by personality

>>49195251

From what I can gather he seems to not be a fan of a lot of music (presuming he's not just bullshitting). I'm paraphrasing but I think I remember reading that he said he's not a fan of any rock music generally, although did refer to Led Zeppelin as 'a good source of breakbeats' or something like that

>>49195470
I dont know theres a lot of possibilities his a hipster his a troll he only likes electronic music. I remember Aaron Funk also said he generally doesn't like most other music unless it is something very weird and different, and Richard said something similar about liking music that sounds very different, they're probably just really into novelty in a borderline hipster way

>>49195470
he said his favourite music is his own

>>49195509
To further back this up Richard's man complaint about Kid A is it's "predictable and somewhat cliche" or something like that. But again you never know when this dude is bullshitting for kicks

>>49195547
"Yeah, really obvious and cheesy. I mean I’m just
comparing it to my favourite music and I think it’s
terrible compared to that. But compared to all the
shit boring R&B tracks it’s probably alright.
Compared to those teen punk sort of bands or
whatever they are supposed to be called, who think
that they are really anarchic and stuff like that,
they are probably amazing."

the exact quote from the interview

With current life expectancy estimates, RDJ is only about half way through his life. What if Syro is only the first step in a new part of his career? What do you think will happen next?

i hope we at least get a bit of this on the new album

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NJHsT8kEyzs

We need a new flowchart that is updated with releases from his other aliases so people can stop asking about them here.

>>49195588
I can't get over "What SAW I and II would sound like together: Windowlicker"

>>49195614
Christ. I never even noticed that before.

>>49195614
How the hell did I not notice that? What a shit chart. It also needs stuff other than Aphex Twin.

>>49195632
>>49195655
It's actually pretty good minus how the person put windowlicker and come to daddy in there which I'm hoping is a joke

>>49195673
No it isn't. It's actually pretty poor.

9/22/14

cap this if u need 2

>>49195523

I actually respect that a lot. Fuck it, the guy couldn't find any music that he truly enjoyed so he just made the music he wanted to hear.

>>49195688
Better than this in my opinion, "more quiet" sounds really stupid to me and I think Come to Daddy isn't a great representation of Richards sound as a whole so not a great place to start. For people new to experimental music SAW 85-92 is probably the best place to start it's the most accessible at most people will find it boring/tooslow, for people who can handle something challenging or want his crazy side Drukqs is the best place to start since it's sort of a showcase of everything he can do. Never got why people reccomend RDJ album as best starter it's his most whacky and "quirky" album and doesn't sound as modern as Drukqs

>>49195735
i saw the fuckin post on what too bro you aint special

>>49195735
>american date

lol no

>>49195794
haha you got me, i was surprised to not see anyone talking about it so i figured maybe i could pull a told you so whenever the release date is out or something if he happened 2 be right

>>49195786
Forgot pic

I reckon Rich loves Kate Bush

>>49195786
>>49195688
both are pretty bad we need a new chart when new album comes out

>>49195786
>Never got why people reccomend RDJ album as best starter
It's much easier to digest than Drukqs. 30 minute running time, and concise tracks with clear melodies. Closest thing he's got to a "pop" album really.

regarding the syro leak:

Track 1 is Mass by Vaetxh
Track 2 is Clipper [Subjex Origamix] by Vaetxh & Subjex
Track 3 is Clipper by Vaetxh
Track 4 is Cuntpressor by Vaetxh
Track 5 is Unfolding Mechanism by Vaetxh
Track 6 is List of Lists by Vaetxh
Track 7 is Crumbling Shuffle by Vaetxh
Track 8 is There Are Worlds In The Gaps by Vaetxh
Track 9 is Mass [Dead Fader Remix] by Vaetxh
Track 10 is Mass [Woulg Kuff'd Up Mirror Mix] by Vaetxh
Track 11 is Rho Ophiuchi by Vaetxh
Track 12 is Recursion Tree by Vaetxh

>>49195895
It was actually the one that took the longest to click with me minus "4" "Fingerbib" "Weakling Child" and "Girl/Boy Song".

I imagine "cornish acid" "peek" "carn marth" and "logon rock" being huge turn offs for people new to this kind of music. Plus the production on RDJ album is pretty harsh and weird, not bad but weird. Drukqs has even weirder tracks but a load of mindfuck beats that will appeal to people who like crazy music, still I think the first SAW album is the best place to start.

>>49195969
I guess stuff like Peek might be a bit harsh to newcomers but then so would 54 Cymru Beats.
SAW is definitely the safest starter though.

someone should make a list with Windowlicker as the starting point. it's his most accessible work, and whichever section of the song you like best can be the jumping off point for where you go next

intro: RDJ Album
midsection/croquette chien bit: SAW 85-92
headfuck ending bit: Drukqs, I Care Because You Do

and then on from there

>>49196152
yeah I mean when recommending people a starting album for a genre or artist I always keep the personality and experience with that type of music in mind so it's generally safest to go with the album that is the most "normal" sounding

>>49196252
that is if you are doing something like a chart which is geared towards anyone in general

>>49196205
>this
>most accessible work

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fnzWHFllnIQ

It's also not a good representation of his sound with the tongue in cheek opening track which he has said like come to daddy is kind of satire almost and only 3 tracks on it. Maybe I'm just saying that because I consider it his worst material but it was definetly underwhelming compared to everything else his done

Can someone give me a summary of the deepweb shit? I saw the posts about the blimp but i haven't read anything about the deepweb stuff.

>>49196348
https://twitter.com/AphexTwin/status/501383043643621376

>>49196324
I was just talking about the track itself (I agree it's not his best work either, but it is his single most mainstream-friendly track). maybe you could throw in a 'hey, I actually preferred the b-side' option and have an arrow pointing to like the Ventolin EP or something.

>>49195588
how does Flim sound evil?

>>49196375
It is his most mainstream-friendly track but besides being fun and catchy I always thought the moaning would be too weird for most people. I find it funny that my least favorite tracks (Come to Daddy/Windowlicker) and ones he has stated are sort of a joke are the most mainstream

>>49196417
I don't like Come to Daddy much but I genuinely really enjoy Windowlicker.
Also it's probably the accompanying videos that help with their mainstream appeal.

>>49196252

Some people (such as myself) like to start with the "crazy" stuff first, what you want to hear should depend on your mood or even the time of day (I don't think many people would want to hear drukqs first thing in the morning on a work day), so there should be multiple starting points like other flowcharts.

>>49196447
It should really not even have a starting point and just list every albums strongpoints and what mindset you should go into it with, maybe list the most "normal" and "accessible album" as first and put the weirdest and most experimental on the bottom

>>49196417
if you're getting into Aphex and you find the moaning in Windowlicker to be too weird, I would suggest finding a different artist to get into lel

>>49196488
I personally find the moaning to be more weird than even shit like milkman or the "dirty little boy" thing on the come to daddy mix, not bad weird, just quirky/silly weird

>>49196488
>>49196534
then there's the music video which is hilarious but fucking bizarre

>>49196205
>croquette chien
lel

I wonder if it'll be anything like his last music released under Aphex Twin alias (Fenix Funk 5 and XMD 5a), and possibly those tracks he only played live, or will it be something completely new. Back in the 90s he never got stuck on a certain "sound" and every album sounded different, plus he said that "new shit is imminent", so maybe it'll be something new. But he also said that he's going to release a lot of his old back catalogue on Warp. But then again he says a lot of things. Fuck.

>>49197778
He's probably assuming that since the last "offical" material released was The Tuss' stuff in '07. Plus he had so much material with the Analord series in '05 and '06, there's no way he had time to make anything other than that stuff. Granted, he actually had some Analords recorded as early as 2003, who knows what the timeframe is, but 2007-2014 sounds fair to me.

oh wait, i just got what you were saying. yeah, it does look like it's actually a physically folded picture of him.

>>49198690

He thinks it has leaked

>>49198765
Possibly him, but the bassline reminds me more of Squarepusher.
This one however, is a solid contender for Rich

>>49193216
Are you dumb? How could he be innovating when he does not release anything?

>>49192236


this one sounds like his old style

>>49192236
This album gave me some trip yesterday.
The art work matches the music. When I listen to it I get this funny feeling like I am being trolled hard.

>>49199999
You are being trolled hard because that is not the art and SYRO was not the album you listened to.

ahaha

>>49199999
quints confirm, he did listen to it

>>49200275

Are you a medically confirmed retard by any chance?

>>49200409
I think everyone would be by the amount of shots I had when I listened to it. So yes.

Cant wait for the release.

>>49195897
>none of these are even true
stop viral marketing

Why the fuck can't you people wait for the official release?? So impatient...it's this year.

>>49194354
Aphex and Squarepusher collaborated on this track a long time ago

>>49195509
He doesn't only like electronic music. He's stated that he likes classical stuff like Erik Satie and he's an influence on his melodies, he also mentioned liking Nine Inch Nails and Pink Floyd

>none of the songs' tempos in the leak match up with the deep web site's tempos

c'mon son

>>49192992
En stril kunne lett funnet på å si "syro"

>>49193161
hvem i helsikes sier "helsikes"

>>49193064
what if the tracks aren't tracks and they're just ALBUMS ?

>>49201950

>>49192236
>Syro = western Norwegian for "the acid"
pretty sure you mean Syre.

>>49193216
well, yeah...

>>49201950

"Syro-Aramaic tjn (n3e1) in the meaning “to come down from, to give birth to, to be descended from.”

Makes sense for me, he is descending from his "godlike" status fans have him to witness us with another album. Lovely.

>>49201950
s-stop doing this...

>>49202175
Yeah but I'm pretty sure Richard hates it when people view him as some sort of deity.

>>49202175

I'm fully ready to receive more of this propaganda.

>>49202237
Richard hates everything except for his mates a spliff and what he deems as good music

>>49202271
Good man.

>user uploaded the video right around the time the album was announced
>user's name is weird welsh bullshit
>user is subscribed to ballacid, a big player in the acid scene
>the track snippet is the exact acid wankery OP is bitching about

I seriously think this video is legit.
But I'd love to be proved wrong.

>>49203647
this is actually really good sounding and I'm one of the ones hoping it's not just more of The Tuss type of stuff. Guess we just have to wait.

>>49203647
Does this match up with the tempo in the onion link I never bothered checking the link out myself

>>49203647
Hmm. I reckon the mixing is a bit flat compared to Rich's usual stuff but it's the most convincing "leak" so far.
If it isn't him then someone has definitely done their homework, especially with regards to the room reverb used on the bass.

>>49199999
nice quints

>>49203974
Actually on closer listen, it just sounds like someone roughly trying to recreate the Manchester track.

>implying acid isnt the best genre man ever created

Come To Daddy>Windowlicker>RDJA>drukqs>ICBYD

Haven't listened to the rest

>>49205060
but that's backwards

>>49205060
lol

>>49205060
>Hasn't listened to any of the SAWs

Jesus really? Get to it. NOW

>>49205060
>Come to Daddy his best

>>49205120
his new ranking will be

Ventolin EP > windowlicker > come to daddy > RDJA > windowlicker > ICBYD SAW 85 > windowlicker > SAW II

>tfw WATMM named themselves after his worst track

top tet

>>49205208
not his best but I like that one, the ambience in the melody is subtle but there

>>49205060
Druqks is seriously underrated especially by pitchfork, its a bit all over the place at worst but is like a showcase of everything he can do and kind of like a rollercoaster ride on LSD or something

>>49192236
What's the deal with him? Why is he só hyped? What he did to be considered "good"?

>>49205813
Ikr só random. Who even is this guy?

>>49205966

>a post on 4chan with absolutely no source or citation
>proof of anything

Second leaked track here.

B-but I want SAW Vol.3...

>>49205966
lookslegit but i really wanna hope this nigger is probably playing with our wishful thinking

>mfw eyedeem backpacking plebs who think they're hot shit because they listen to Aphex, Snares, and Stockhausen, throw a pissy fit because the new record is straight aciiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiduh

>>49206165
That's Beatwife m8

>>49206170
Me too
But that's never going to happen and we both know it

>>49206258
>stockhausen

where did you even get stockhausen from, why would an eyedeem pleb like stockhausen

didn't aphex twin have a row with the old german fuck once when they threw shade on each other's stuff

>>49206335
Yeah, it was in good humor though. Rich actually attended one of his lectures years later.

>>49206393
whoa, shit. that's really neat, actually, i never thought rdj was the kind of guy to put much stock into people like him ('academic music' types), what with how he always says he likes his own music the best

i always had the image of him that he started with the barest bones of dance music and acid and put out his earliest stuff based on those styles and just only took his own work as inspiration from then on

>>49206258
>>49206477
He has said before he likes music that is different and does something new or something like that

>>49206477
I think RDJ definitely has his roots in dance music but he obviously listens to and respects a lot of academic stuff too. I mean if you listen to Gwarek2 from Druqks, it owes a lot to electroacoustic composers like Stockhausen.
Also he's done homages to Reich and Penderecki in his more recent live shows.

>>49195588

Thanks, it's not perfect but I know I will be exploring it a lot soon.

>>49192271
Holy fuck this is so good...if the album is anything like this I will shit myself.

>>49192271

>He has 56 Albums and Singles ready. He wont release anything. His music is his life and all his emotions bundled into an unimaginable amount of power, if the listener can apprechiate it, he will notice. This guy is the most complex person to be alive and known.

damn...

>>49206780

Wait a minute, there's no Caustic Window or 26 Mixes For Cash on here...

>>49207715
CW Compilation is right below RDJA.
Though it'd make more sense if Hangable Auto Bulb were there since that's the most similar to RDJA.

>>49206862
The ambient ones should link to I Care Because You Do it has some harsh tracks but is also very lush emotive and atmospheric in most the songs

>>49192271
>the actual Metz track is going to sound all differentey because you're too used to this recording

>>49192844
ka med "syrå"?

>>49193091
Do pice, dalsi Slovak co pocuva Richarda na /mu/?

>>49192385
>>49192385
I just noticed that Manchester is the same song featured on this video, curiously called XMAS_EVET10 (thanaton3 mix), the second track from the incoming album.

The description says "I've re-adjusted the original recording so it's more listenable. Could be released sometime in the future, he played this track out in 2007 and fans have named it "Manchester Track"".

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jHUp3FEAVU8

So yes, finally we will hear this in HQ. Let's hope we have METZ as well.

>>49207043
>never heard good acid
>probably listens to britney spears

besides. syro will almost certainly be a rap album featuring die antwoord, who have also released an album this year, sparkling with input by RDJ himself.

>>49192236
>Cornish Acid
has "acid" in english in the title, wasn't bland wankery
