GENERAL NEW RELEASE SPECULATION TOPIC

[funnnnpng]

The act of finding samples is so much harder to do when you're actively looking for the sample, instead of just stumbling across it by accident.

Although I agree with this totally, like looking through a haystack for that needle. Then when you get tired, you sit down and the needle pierces your ass.

I did actively look for the 'I'm listening' sample. After the society x tape mix when someone else found the One foundation song - Dance with us Lord. I ventured on a journey just somehow 'knowing' it would be found within the music of the Prem Rawat sect/cult. As soon as I saw the Blue Aquarius album, I just knew I was on the right track.

Yeah, nice find! Not always will you just find it on accident of course, many samples have been found just by logically following breadcrumbs and not stumbling across it. But still, it does feel a lot cooler and is slightly easier to accidentally find that sample you were just looking for a couple weeks before, or to be looking for samples for your own material and finding a sample from a song you really like.

That's what I'm sayin'. Who is around 50 years old, from Minneapolis, and also likes BoC.... considering that they distorted it a fair amount from the original.

Consider though that there's also a substantial group of retro TV logo collectors, and a fairly significant possibility that there's overlap between them and BoC fans. A good handful of folks spotted that WGBH Boston ident in the SXT from a mile away lmao

Just exhausting ideas: there is a /hellinterface twitter, created on the same month and year as the /boctransmission one...

https://twitter.com/hellinterface

Probably doesn't help us much, I'm just thinking out loud I guess..

Yeah I found this account too. I followed it just in case but I doubt it's related. I'd assume it would at least have the same profile picture as their other accounts by now if it was related...

The name on Twitter is Ant K - did a google search and found Ant K from on soundcloud from London.

Likely a coincidence - but good thinkin'!

Not related to this "campaign", but what do you think about this yt account?

https://youtube.com/user/laciryl

It was created in 2006 (same period as many of their accounts) but posted videos only after the societas x tape broadcast. It now shows the blue dot as well but I'm sure nothing has changed since the beginning.

These are really cool, thank you! Can someone check wayback machine or something to see if the channel name was always x Tapes?

Sorry about a follow-up, took too much time to edit so it wouldn't let me.

My two cents about all this. I definitely see a pattern in their posts, always after some events, like fakes, or when Daft Punk broke up some were worried maybe same thing happened to them.

About people prying into their private lives, I completely understand the worry. However what else can happen when you keep giving info in tiny drops every few years? People will eventually start looking themselves. There are thousands of fans around the world, some are bit crazier than others, like in any groups of people. Most of us follow each tiny bit of online activity that is giving some signs of life, going crazy over blue dots etc. but some won't stop there. Don't get me wrong, I am not saying that this kind of behaviour is acceptable, my opinion is that their PR stuff might have been done better to prevent this. Give people just enough to be satisfied. And these people are not easy to satisfy, most of them are acid burnouts, doesn't take much time to start connecting dots and stuff.

Whoever was tinkering with the HI facebook account, took the whole thing down now - hahaha!

Edit: The whole FB service, not just the HI page

That's actually indicative that that is NOT an official page. Sorry all, I think that one's a dead end. We all speculated that if it's a hoax, it would be removed - and it has been.

Edit - hold a minute, looks like a lot of facebook is down?

Edit edit - page is back up - we're back in business!!

Its a fellow fan, I left a like on it back then, I don't remember if they posted it here or reddit and I remember the post was titled something along the lines of "lets do our own SxT! this is my attempt at it, what do you think?", you can even see that in the description and comments.

Oh it's all of FB, for pretty much everyone, it seems.

[drixlin]

Sorry, I should have been more clear - I was jokingly saying whoever was making the changes to the HI account seems have to have killed all of FB, heh.

[NorthSaturnian]

The HI page is up again, at least to me

[funnnnpng]

Aaaand just like that, all of facebook is back up again!
