Geogaddi vibes on it, I religiously check those accounts, probably a bad use of my time. But obviously this was worth talking about , I’d like to think

This reminds me of a topic created by Echelon.
The Official Daft Punk/BOC Mega thread


Thanks for the shout-out :D

If i was to add any speculation about the new profile photo, perhaps there won't be any new photos/interviews this time around when a new album/collection premieres. I've noticed BOC love doing glamour shots and artsy photos but perhaps the atmosphere is too "heated" per se for another round of interviews.

So instead, we've got ourselves some "reheated" BOC photos. Which is good, because it looks like Mike's face is in VCR hell. :lol:
Warning: This numerology post is not to be taken 2 seriously.

maybe to hide the fact that the face is created with artbreeder or some other ai tool? :lol: jk

Honestly, it looks like it was run through one of those ageify filters before the distorted screen effects were added, or maybe it's just the latter making him look older, I DeKay LOL

That's a different photo from the same shoot, it's actually this one.

Or maybe @boctransmission removed @marcuseoin as a follower because it’s not a legit account.

Isn't the new banner on Mike's Twitter some kind of edit (maybe the original) from BoC's YouTube page?

Also, MDG was active within the last 10 minutes, 11.25am GMT. Something is happening!

I wouldn’t say it like this if I didn’t know for sure.

For all we know, he could be logging in to check on the fantastic "proto-drum'n'bass-jazz-funk-ambient-folk-minimalist-techno"
being posted in the Now Playing topic!

Leave the guy to his coincidental hexagonal duties. :wink:

Hmm assuming the account is indeed real, why would Mike set his profile pic to a weirdly edited version of a 2013 press photo?

I've further noticed that if you zoom in on the bottom-left corner of the account's banner, there's a snow trail or something similar.

Image

EDIT

Seems to resemble the powerlines as seen in their YT banner

Good find with the power lines. I guess he really likes that picture and cropped it to use as the Twitter banner.

About the profile picture. It's red. Like Geogaddi. in about a week we celebrate its 20th birthday. Seems fitting.

Frickin well done! I love how the image is in reverse—quite fitting.

Looking forward to 2/13 (geogaddi 20th anniversary)!

I think they rather opt for the EU release to do something major
(this is also a Friday, new releases usually get sent out on Fridays)

JP: 2/13
EU: 2/18
US: 2/19
