Something is weird with Syro. On the one hand, and as far as I know, this album includes all the unreleased tunes Richard D. James has played live and which fanboys considered as composed by Aphex himself (from 2006 to 2012): The Manchester track, (track 1), the Metz track (track 2), etc. A total of 6 tracks out of the 12 that make the album. On the other hand, RDJ keeps saying in interviews that he has shitloads of tunes ready to be put out on albums. How come did he never play these lots of tunes live? Why isn't Syro composed of only a few of the unreleased tracks played live? Is he a liar? Are those "shitloads" non-danceable tunes? Do those tunes need mastering before being properly tried live? Do you have any other hypothesis? |

i got a folder of shit ripped off youtube via watmm that isn't on syro that is obviously him |

but maybe yeah, do you find that typing stuff about music gets in the way of listening to it??? bye 4 now |

Well, those tape tracks joyrex had hidden in his shorts for so long suggests we don't need to hear everything he's done. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
The tracks on Syro were the better known and most appreciated of his unreleased tracks, weren't they? I'm trying to find out the principle of constitution of Syro. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
maybe he just released them to stop people listening bad recordings of his tunes... |

There are six question marks in your post, where is the fact that you put in your title?????? |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
actually there are 3 but it's nice to know i am now drinking more than you again. it must be 2-3 years since i can say that haha! |

There are six question marks! Count the question marks not just the daft questions |

i'll be honest i didnt even read what he said and no offence but i still havent 2nd time around |

The disturbing fast is: all the famous unreleased AFX tracks are on Syro. (That fact proved to be wrong, anyway: only "most of them" are on Syro.) But we all know that AFX says he has shitloads of tracks ready. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i think Syro is probably "a comp of old tracks which is never really finished and always changing" that he mentioned in fact magazine about 3 year ago, he mentioned 5 other albums so he probably had Syro mostly finished several years ago |

When an artist releases an album after 13 years we don't expect them to have done it all in the last fortnight. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it's not like he wasn't reasonably prolific through the 2000s, just not as aphex. Every few years he had something out. I'm also not convinced he didn't hire monolith to be his cover when the tuss was too easily discovered by people. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Wasn't Melodies from Mars the one that he kept changing? I remember reading that... somewhere. Might explain why it's never been released. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
He has 4 albums worth of stuff from melodies from mars, so perhaps he couldn't decide what should appear on the final album |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
final album? hypersflakes what do you mean? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
sorry should have been more precise, what i meant was that he couldnt decide a final running order for a melodies from mars album cos he had so much material, or eventually just went a different path with the more drill and bass stuff like yellow calx. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
obviously im just presuming, perhaps he never intended to release it, although the demo was rumoured to be leaked by someone from warp |
||||||||

not fact not disturbing 0/10!! |

We are all a bit strange on here. I wish for you to be happy and making musics. |

Thank you Hypers'flakes. i wish you could have an avatar, |

"That fact proved to be wrong, anyway", again where is the fact? Sort yourself out Combo. Speculation and conjecture mean nothing. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
never argue with anyone more stupid than you, they will drag you down to your level and then beat you with experience. i've noticed this with leeds supporters. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yes, and in your case that would be no one |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
maybe aphex twin just is a troll |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Haha! I can handle Combo quite easily. It is just 'give 'em enough rope and they'll hang themselves'. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
You can handle me but you can't answer the questions and explain the fact. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
What fact? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||

I'm not gonna bite. I'll leave that to the scousers |
||||||||
|
|

Is there anyone else on here who is scouse? |

everytime i watch my Björk@Cambridge DVD I see you behind the buttons, and i cannot fucking believe that that is the guy logging in to xlt nearly every day to make some witty and cocky remarks to fucking strangers PS like the watch though |

Odd to think that jivver is a human being, and not actually the dog in his avatar, or some savant hermetically sealed in the studio spending years perfecting a snarling sound for the next record. I like to think of him, with his feet up, reading The Sun and thinking "Hehehe, I made Frequencies, fuck off the lot of you" |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

Is there anyone on here not a dupe |

RDJ has 10 000+ hot tunes ready to release. RDJ has played 6 unreleased hot tunes live. RDJ has put 12 tunes on Syro. The probability of having one of those unreleased hot tunes played live on Syro was very tiny. But half of Syro = those 6 tunes. WHY? IT IS AGAINST ALL ODDS. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
UNLESS you understand that albums aren't compiled by chance, and Syro is obviously a thank you to the fans as much as anything else... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
All that bollocks about "thousands of tunes" was just RDJ being a coy prick. Virtually anybody who makes music and critiques themselves tightly will have dozens and dozens of tracks that they will never release due to their own quality control process. I'd guess that Aphex gives as much of a shit about sharing his best stuff as any other person. I think it's clear that he's not sitting on this archive of his "best music" due to the fact that Syro is tepid shite that develops nothing new on his old material. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
seems the acid virgins are all having a good gossip about his studio equipment |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Of course Richard never said he had ten thousand tunes, he said about four years ago that he had six albums ready...there is now even less reason to doubt this than there was then, and there wasn't much then... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I tell you what, Puffy Combo: maybe he played those tunes live because he fucking likes them. An even more outrageous thought would be that he put them on the album because, wait for this, he likes them. Many bands from various genres play new songs live to test them or (and this may come as a shock to you) because they like them. Sometimes they aren't released for years. It's common practice. He's mentioned in interviews this album gives him closure over a period that he wants to move on from. |
