"I met steve beckett at the warp 20 party in berlin this weekend and he said boc would be released very soon and aphex not as soon but also very soon

yes I know is not really news but at least its something"

http://forum.watmm.com/topic/44719-new-aphex-twin-album-due-this-year/page__st__555


Few things here.

1) We're not alone in this kind of waiting game!
2) Maybe it's the time of year, but I feel inclned to believe this guy.
3) I really wanted to call this thread How Soon Is NOW! and have some news.

I think Steve is just guessing every time he says soon.

Yeah, I'd sort of guessed.

So, How soon is soon...?

That really is the question, how soon is soon.

I mean wasn't the album meant to be coming out "soon" like march last year?

Well, BoC doesn't actually live in Scotland. They are currently living on the beautiful countryside of Jupiter, where 1 year = approximately 11.86 Earth years. So they are actually much more prolific than you think. Jeeez guys !

Maybe, they had moved to Jupiter but their home always remain around northern Saturn.

Exactly what I was thinking. Nothing to do with "soon" but at least we know its not sooner than we think?

I can calculate 'soon' to 1.24 trillion decimal places. Using that, I can confirm that soon isn't 'soon enough'.

All i want for christmas is the new Boards Album, a few joints and a tab of acid. :wink:

also a trip in a beautifull place in the country, not that much really!!
A clearance in a wooded area, you startle a deer, it runs into the pines. Vast turquoise lakes and icy rivers, crisp mountain air. A bald eagle soars above. The distant sound of a chainsaw. Redwood smoke

My crazy conspiracy: No new album will ever be released. Marcus & Mike will retire in the BoC fashion: Mysteriously leave us hanging/anxious for new material and soon mdg will disappear; stop "updating"[:roll:] us and we will always wonder what happend to those old european fellas with the nostalgic sounds and they'll have an interview in 10 years telling us that when we had wet dreams about Infinite Lines of Colorful Sevens it was the sound of our imagination which was the music and no real track ever exsisted. wtf
