Hmmm...Joyrex has been posting again this morning, some little thing about locking their big thread at 70 pages:

Joyrex: All things must DIE. But, from new seeds a new, clear dawn will arise. And, before the suns set, the workers will have harvested a bountiful crop.

Like I said, it may not close. Let's see what happens. Or, should I say let's see when happens?


...but now he said he removed a bunch of crap and "fixed" the thread title, placing NPR's # as first in the chain :shock:
There are a lot of different 'me's, you know. There's the mad me, when I get angry.

strange to hate this, i've been oddly moved by the whole show. they're interacting in a way that feels more personal than giving some interview with xyz website. i'm just glad the old fox is showing some signs of life.

I sort of have it in the back of my head that the NPR "clue" might actually be the cipher. Maybe there will be 2 more clues? Interesting times ahead. I have a feeling that this thing will get wrapped up by the end of the weekend, one way or another so Pitchfork and company can have it out there on Monday morning for all the regular folks to see.


It's my birthday on monday so this would make me VERY happy :D

I've said a lot about my hatred for Mumford and Sons and the Lumineers. Lame, faux-sincere, faux-authentic, boring-as-watching-dried-paint-remain-at-a-constant-level-of-dryness music that's only use is for advertising mobile phones on the basis of their 'improved connectimunisharitivity'.

I'm totally thinking that this is far from over with multiple codes, games and releases throughout the year/s.... At least I'm hoping.

Is that the influx that will come from watmm as some suspected it would happen? Perhaps Joyrex hinting at that location for the "floating" sixtet of numbers is the clue?

I don't know, in a way that seems almost too easy... JOYREX, I know you're watching, please? ;)

Has anyone found anything about these two mysterious tracks? I don't hear anything obvious that points toward them being fake.

Listen to them loud on big speakers, or good quality headphones and you should be able to spot it.

Dont get me wrong, they are good tracks, but they do not sound like BoC in terms of overall mix... i'm almost certain that "Volscp" is Tycho, compare them carefully, particularly the portamento on that lead line.

Upon listening to "ಶೀಘ್ರವಾಗಿ" i can hear Propellerheads Reason.... particularly the reverb on the percussion.

I see what you're saying and I'm not saying the tracks are on BOCs level but if that's Tycho then that's the best music I've heard him make. But then again, I'm not too fond of his sound. I like these two tracks though, even if they're not BOC.

the first one somehow still sounds quite legit to my ears...

BUT wait a second, i just realised something:

was it mentioned before that the uploader of volscp is called three15two
then days later the code 628315 indeed is at position number 2
this could have been a clue all along that the NPR code was not meant to be in second position as most of us assumed. it kind of foretells yesterday's code and its position...
that's why there is no code position found in the video, just the plain sequence.
alongside csch which is an abreviation of COSECHA.

any more thoughts on this?
am i seeing ghosts?

I feel like an old man sitting on a porch commenting on how "times are a'changin'".

All these young'uns, I remember the days of knowing who most posters were based purely on the avatar image.
