There are online anagram generators. Fab dodos arcana.
I watched that fan video. A bit odd that the entire middle half-hour is devoted to the teaser campaign for Tomorrow’s Harvest.

That latest track of theirs couldn’t have come at a better time, lyrics are spot on!
Lucky man!
Beware the midges 
It felt like a pretty big deal at the time, but I only got into them in about 2005, so I guess it was more of a thing for us latecomers maybe?
Definitely could have done with more info on the earlier goings on though.
I can totally understand getting swept up in it at the time. I just don’t know if it translates well to outsiders a decade later. It’s a bit too hermetic. But there just isn’t a lot of public “info on the earlier goings on”, so it’s not like anything was neglected. The video could probably be edited down into a really tight 45 minutes or so.
A friend gave me a copy of “Music Has” around the millennium but I was into rather different music at the time. I went back to it earlier this year, after starting to buy synths and samplers, and appreciated it a lot more.

I imagine they’re probably busy prepping 
Fantastic, I hadn’t seen this! Interesting stuff about (not so) hidden meanings & references in Geogaddi…
Question on the track ‘1969’. There’s a vocoder used extensively on the track. Is that their own voices or a sample taken from somewhere. If its their own, what vocoder did they use? Cheers.
There’s a female voice used for ‘1969 in the sunshine’ with some other’s based on a David Koresh and the Branch Davidians. More info:
There’s not much about their equipment:
And there’s even some talk about it being a talkbox and not a vocoder on forums like WATMM:

Cheers Craig. Yes i’ve been through those site links not much help though. Its not the ‘1969 in the Sunshine’, bit its the male voice repeating lines on what i thought was a vocoder but now that you mention it it maybe a talkbox. Im not sure they ever used their own voices?

Yeah, I don’t hear much (or any) Scottish off the top of my head. They’re all about sampling.

Its a bit strange to sample a vocoded voice. Maybe they had a guest artiste come in Maybe Thom Yorke. Great track though

Great tip. I would never had thought of that Now i need to find a vocoder. I tried using DAW ones but they never worked out. Any tips on a vocoder with a talkbox effect built in?

If you want a super cheap talkbox effect, load the sample you want onto your phone, stick the speaker end in your mouth, then record into a mic while the sample is playing.
Results may vary

I’ll give it a go. Cheers.
By ‘record the output’, I mean stick a mic up near you bt the way. Not sure I was that clear reading it back.
You’ll probably want a loud phone and/or a quiet room to do it well.
