Aphex Twin Releases Tracklist And Artwork For New Album, SYRO

After teasing us with an Aphex Twin sigil on a blimp in London last week, it looks like the eccentric producer is finally back, after a 13-year hiatus, with his latest album, Syro. Will this be something closer to the moody atmospherics of his ambient works, or a little more propulsive and “Rubber Johnny” chaotic? We’d be excited for either version of Aphex Twin.

We’ve got a track listing as well as the Syro art work, which looks like an expense report for the actual album. You can see both below this very alarming .gif of Aphex Twin leering through his tinted limousine window.

FINAL MASTER SYRO DIGIPAK.indd

 

Do you guys think those are frequencies next to each of the tracks? I feel like he’s doing some kind of Boards of Canada thing here with a bunch of numbers that supposedly unlock a deeper mystery about each track or the album as a whole.

Aphex Twin’s music has been as much about the art/image of Richard D. James as it is about the creative output itself – at least starting around the …I Care Because You Do era of masks, caricatures, creepy creatures, and Chris Cunningham collaborations. Who knows what more than a decade out of the spotlight has wrought on the artist, but I, for one, am ecstatic to have him back.

Syro will be out September 23.

Treat yourself to Aphex Twin’s semi-inscrutable press release below:

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.

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.

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).

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.

    THIS IS LITERATELY WHAT IT SAYS: “Whenever one of the most celebrated and influential electronic fartist, Richard D. James” … wow, nice. Fartist.

    Wonder if this in direct response to the Caustic Window release and its reception?

    Windowlicker is one of the creepiest dance songs ever, and I love playing it to watch people’s brow wrinkle. The video was marvelous.

    I would assume the numbers next to the tracks are the BPM.
