I suppose I'll be the one to make this thread:

Not surprising, especially after that rumor you stated a while back...still exciting though.

Thanks for the heads up.

Drat, and I thought seeing it all over twitter was the end of it. All I could think of was that comment you made that Syntonic is referencing, Jack.

About his divorce? The plot thickens in that regard. People have noticed that the last track in this possible tracklist is "Anastasia" spelled backwards, which seems to be the name of some 19 year old Russian photographer who's been doing some work for him. Midlife crisis, etc.

It would be hilarious - and totally in line with Ricky Da James' manifesto - if he releases Caustic Window as a bonus disc alongside whatever this turns out to be.

Hmmmm, wonder if he's strapped for cash? I've heard Warp's publishing is awful and they make very little money. They offered like, $250 total to this three-person band in NYC to open for Plaid lollll.

If he actually was strapped for cash, he'd just do some touring. Seriously, Aphex is someone that will find five-figure festival gigs all over the place in an instant if he wants to.

He's still contractually bound with Warp for like three more albums so it's not like has the choice to release anywhere else.


Posted by SYSTEM-J on Aug-19-2014 20:59:

He played Glastonbury this summer and he reportedly charges �40,000 per hour for DJ gigs so I don't think he's living on baked beans just yet.

I don't know any facts, but I do kinda struggle to believe that Warp make very little money. They're one of the longest surviving electronic labels around, they have major distribution links and you can still find albums they put out 20 years ago in high street shops, so the back-catalogue alone must sell pretty healthily.

Probably true, I don't know anything. Just had some dude in Brooklyn complaining to me about them at one point. They are still huge and continue to suck up relevant artists when they can, so I'd imagine they are not exactly broke.

Boom, release date September 22.

Aphex obsessives will note the limited edition triple-vinyl version of the album, which is retailing at �250 and can only be bought by entering a ballot.


JFC.

Gonna pirate this one, boys.

Looking at the Bleep website, there's a regular vinyl release ($33) as well. Yeah, the limited edition's bullshit but who cares really. You're paying for the extra print, not for the music.

By the way, the german Groove mag just put up the english original version of their interview with Aphex from 2001 for the Drukqs release. It's pretty long and fairly interesting. Back then he said that Drukqs is going to be his last ever record for Warp but I guess 13 years is a long time to change anyone's mind.

Does'nt he DJ behind a wall so nobody can see him


Posted by SYSTEM-J on Aug-21-2014 22:30:

Never heard that one before. He did, however, once "perform" a DJ set by putting sandpaper under the needle whist putting a microphone in a blender to provide the beats.

Here's the official press release, and believe me it's worth reading.

Announcing 'Syro' - A new album by Aphex Twin to be released on Warp Records 22/23 September.

Whenever one of the most celebrated and influential electronic fartist, Richard D. James can compete with the music flip to influence built. The better part of a decagon, James Polygon Window, Caustic Window, GAK and maintain, including `Aphex Twin has unreleased music under several thousand monikers great pace.

Began in the late 1780s and 90s during a turn in its manufacturing and technical skills, and nikharana Cornwallo, England grows, James, as a young maniton in various shops started DJing. Area of various musical score, James Analogue Booblebath EP was released in 1891, the results of the first series, he decided to record his gown music. Another influential London radio station piss FM's attention, and then label immediately signed him to their rooster, then post & poplieereRS. That same year, James Acid shithouse to promote the song and trying to lift Grant Wilson-CLARIDGE on a biscuit founded his label Rephlex Records. Selekted Flambient Works moving to London and Release 85-92: After a while, the two main points to be made, round the bend

More immediate and critical success of his debut internationally. Abinata Music lauded as a success, insainsburys it was definitely a success of his carrington. Full steam ahead barreling out that several other singles and EPS are given, and in 1493 was a record collapse. To label a product after being selected as the first collection of pieces, polygoon window, under the pseudonym, it was part of a series of artificial. 2, released in 1994.

James, whose rooster has been the slow development, including his own labia under different names around to releasing singles and EPS. Her next full-length record together since 1995 ... I think it she will be issued. Records have been working on for the past few years, and his experience hardcore and lush abinata textures found his style, and his facial features on the cover of the first issue, the various incarnations of present Omnipresent, which is marked by an icing in the world of music was culled Aphex Gemini (equal recognition with logo).

1896 under the name Aphex Twin record his fourth eponymous EP Girl / boy. This collection of 90s �nTV era is the result of the video, in which he praised the music video director Crease Cunningham saw: Teaming in a way that my Daddy (1997) and Windowlickie (1999), EPS, was followed.

Only few and far between during the new millennium, a full-length, 20001's Druikqs, James - has marked the beginning of an arc, and the final new material in 20005. A lot of the music in any way is often a lack of communication and leadership to be fallacious rumors of new material for his fannies and his enthusiasm has not diminished hope. However ambitious this year, 9014, they uncovered new mats in almost a decade distribution crowdfund rallied together his army of fans: A precious gift that can not be the same as the new Phex Twinnipicks material is still unquenched thirst.

Syria, September 22, 2014, along with records of Aphex Twin's new album to be released. For the owner of Triple vinyl, CD and digital formats will be available. Bleep a very limited vinyl version you can register your interest in buying.

And then stuck it through three different languages on Google Translate and back out into English.

He should have done something batshit with the blimp like had it fly out over somewhere open and just catch fire.


Posted by Woony on Aug-25-2014 20:18:

So, apparently Aphex has a bunch of new interviews coming out soon. Seems like he has more material forthcoming as well.
