Plus, someone found the mp3 of the number (YAY) -- http://d2z73vh7cr79ry.cloudfront.net/cosecha.mp3

I don't see where that was linked? Does anyone know exactly what just happened? I'm too pumped up right now to make much sense of it. But I'd like to know. :wink:


This is where I am. Totally confused as how the number was discovered/released as I was watching twoism and twitter all morning, go pick up my son from preschool and come back and all hell broke loose. Actually was listening to IABPOITC when I finally entered the password correctly. Ironically beautiful. :)

Ordered a vinyl and CD....so excited!!!

Grabbed 3 copies on vinyl and a CD, excellent!

Congrats to all the supernerds who figured out how to get the numbers! A tad disappointed that it turned out just to be a password, but hey! New album confirmed and some creepy videodrome looking shit, so it's all good! Plus I'm glad they binned that hideous typeface from TCH.

The link is a base64 encoded string within the HTTP headers of the cosecha-transmisiones.com page

If you're interested, here's how you'd find the code using Mozilla Firefox:

1) Launch Firefox, open the Firefox menu and select Web Developer > Web Console
2) Visit http://cosecha-transmisiones.com and all of the resources which make up the page will appear in the Web Console list
3) Click on the very first item (it should read something likeGET http://cosecha-transmisiones.com/ [HTTP/1.1 200 OK 78ms]). An Inspect Network Request window should appear
4) Scroll down to the Response Headers section. You should be able to see an entry named Nuevas-Semillas with a value of aHR0cDovL2Qyejczdmg3Y3I3OXJ5LmNsb3VkZnJvbnQubmV0L2Nvc2VjaGEubXAz
5) Copy this string of text to your clipboard, then visit an online Base-64 decoder - I recommend http://www.base64decode.org
6) Paste the string into the form and hit the Decode button. The decoded text should read http://d2z73vh7cr79ry.cloudfront.net/cosecha.mp3

Listening to this MP3 gives you the last 6 digits of the 36-digit password and typing the entire password into http://cosecha-transmisiones.com plays the video.[/b]

I'm here at work trying to buy the preorder. My manager keeps asking me to get off the phone. God damnit bleep!!!! Work!!!

Warp.net is down.. Hmm..

And, dammit, Bleep! YOU KNEW WHAT THE REPERCUSSIONS OF A PRE-ORDER WOULD BEEEEE

Mon Apr 29, 2013 6:24 pm

So I missed all the excitement! Was there much traffic in here at the time?

Let me see if I've got this right:
There's a new Boc album called June 10 Harvest and it's out tomorrow?

Mon Apr 29, 2013 6:25 pm

So, it looks like the 5th series number is 813386....redundant now?

This is going to be a blueprint for viral marketing for nerdy masses, not too hardcore, not too easy and covering multiple spectrums/medias. I am so stoked! :D :) :D

Mon Apr 29, 2013 6:50 pm

I JUST WANNA PREORDER DAMMIT!!!!

Mon Apr 29, 2013 6:52 pm

Can anyone who was on bleep before the crash remember the prices of the vinyl?
