It's a hell of a lot of trouble for someone to go to for a fake.
domain name belongs to this guy: http://wholemeal.net/
name, rloc, is a reference presumably to remote-location, the web design guys who made some other microsites for boc.

To be honest, (and with all due respect) i dont even care, after spending the last couple of years trying rationalize and justify ever spending £100+ on either MHTRTC, Geogaddi or CFHP - the possibility of getting 4 lp's and 2 ep's brand new for what will probably be 'just over' the £100 mark, makes me very excited to say the least.
No links to buy, and seems an unusual way to announce it, albeit a pretty site, Surely it would be Warp or similar to announce. I want it to be real as I need MHTRTC but I won't get my hopes up at all.
Looks too swish to be fake, foobar links would suggest it's just not ready and wasn't supposed to be found yet? Bit weird that it'd all be live already though if that's the case.
While the info could easily be obtained, assumed and used to make a fake site, why would anyone bother? it's not as if it's secret material or anything, It's a natural progression of providing music and a money maker for all involved.
Noel Summerville is a rad dude with a beautiful lathe and has had links to warp for forever and did Autechre's recent past back catalog and Plaid's Scintilli also.
Meh, at least cut new masters. Might get Trans-Canada Highway though since it's the only one from the primary discography I don't have yet (shame the original has gotten so pricey already). Also considering Geogaddi and IABPOITC because of new master plates, and the fact that the latter is actually physically different (black wax). That is, assuming the site is legit

Well it's the standard, I don't think the originals are any more than that (except Geogaddi at least). What matters more is the quality of vinyl too, not the amount.
