Boards of Canada: Classic or Dud?

as for BoC, they're like one of those artist everyone Loves and is influenced by, but justifiably. I Love Boards Of Canada, and I don't care what anyone thinks.

But I'll say that some of their tunes stick in the head alarmingly well for 'ambient' music. Is there a reason I haven't gone and re-investigated them since? Yes, it's that I actually find their music a little creepy and disturbing.

Yeah, this is one of the greatest things ever.

anyone heard this Cardamar remix of ROYGBIV?

nopeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

i think this is one of those bands that more than others, sometimes they are just EXACTLY WHAT YOU NEED

I need a new album from these guys

Classic. I'm pretty sure they're aware at this point how they keep rehashing their sound in every album since MHTRTC, and will probably pull something out of the park... being a little optimistic, but BoC just doesn't strike me as a band that doesn't care about it's legacy.

Have you heard Walls on Kompakt? They don't sound the same but have a comparable aesthetic.

And, well, I like both of them.

They've got a ST album coming out soon and an amazing single out already called Burned Sienna.

Anyone know anything about "Chameleon"? Just popped up on iTunes, with the copyright listed as BoC's own Music70, not Warp...

5. Fox Jupisister
6. Fiendish Feet
7. Benjy Never Saw
8. The Glade

wasn't there a thread, once upon a time, where we just came up with fictional BoC song names?

those are the real songtitles though.

go on, soulseek them.

4. Morbius Flute

ha ha!

The thread was Autechre song names, but these are equally accurate.

Still convinced that BOC create all their track titles via Markov chains.

~inspired~ by this thread, i went out to look for boc's geogaddi on vinyl. after 3 record shops, i finally requested a copy from a dude who looked online and said the cheapest he could find was $200bucks. this is WARP, right? when did they just stop pressing one of their greatest selling albums ever?

i found a used LP copy for $30 maybe a year ago, picked it up, ebay'd it for $100 or so-- but $200 is some wacky shit! really?? doubled in a year's time?
