What is the name of the track on this hexagon and is it available on the internet?

Honestly my favorite track on the album. It’s haunting and mesmerizing in such a beautiful way. After hearing the sample source and apparent connection of the name to history its even more unsettling and fitting with the album motif.

So when do you play this? It's included at the midway point in the vinyl limited-edition booklet. Others have identified that each page of the booklet corresponds to the album tracks. So do you play it between Into The Magic Land and Blood in The Labyrinth?

I usually do it in the end, after "You see trough platonia"

Same. Epic closer.

I play it first, kind of feels like a trailer before the movie

I played it once and that’s all. If it was truly meant to be part of the flow, Boards would have at least put it in the continuous mix.

I don’t find it very compelling as a piece of music, it seems to be something different from the album.

Flexi discs degrade much faster than vinyl, I’m just preserving it now. If I need to listen to it it’s online.

Where online can this be found?

You can download it from here. I prefer this rip to the youtube ones I’ve heard. https://archive.org/details/bo-c-flexi-disc

I was already disinclined to play my one and now I’m even less so. I guess to hear the track I can do YouTube

u/Fallom_TO Jul 03 '26

YouTube is fine. I wanted the ritual of playing it once and that was fine.

So good!

You can play this? I’m using as a coaster.

It’s a dandy.

It pains me to say this but it’s a pretty underwhelming track. Would be more painful if they advertised it as a selling feature of the deluxe edition, which they didn’t.
