Guys, "teams" leak full albums...not two tracks.

― sam g (seahorsegeniurs), Thursday, 18 August 2005 10:53 (eighteen years ago) link

uh SAM G, there is a whole album of this shit.

sharp attention to sound detail

OTM.

― cutty (mcutt), Thursday, 18 August 2005 11:03 (eighteen years ago) link

For those who were wondering - the 'leaked' version of Campfire Headphase is actually a bunch or tracks by Freescha, Arovane, as well as a few really old alleged-BoC tracks from 'Old Tunes Volume I'. I didn't listen to the whole thing - I got as far as track 2 and realized I had heard it before. Ditto track 3, track 4, etc. I've said it before - anyone who wants to create a fake, go ahead. We should see who can mastermind the best fake.

van, what does this fake consist of?

― cutty (mcutt), Friday, 19 August 2005 02:45 (eighteen years ago) link

I didn't download this torrent. I figured it was another fake. At least that's what a few of the comments left said at that torrent site.

neoneon at 2005-08-19 02:42 GMT:

for those who have Pm'ed me YES this is the real deal. Enjoy and purchase the retail copy in BOCtober! :)

― cutty (mcutt), Friday, 19 August 2005 02:53 (eighteen years ago) link

van, i highly doubt BoC_Fan is your most reliable source whether this is fake or not based on the cover art.

― cutty (mcutt), Friday, 19 August 2005 02:54 (eighteen years ago) link

Hah you're right. Maybe it was just me getting tired of having no luck with this album with the past fakes and all. I dunno, maybe it is real. I'm not going to download it tonight anyway.

― van der who (van smack), Friday, 19 August 2005 03:02 (eighteen years ago) link

BOCTOBER!

― s1ocki (slutsky), Friday, 19 August 2005 03:04 (eighteen years ago) link

(not real, although it seems to be an entertaining mix which contains "goodbye horses")

― cutty (mcutt), Friday, 19 August 2005 07:09 (eighteen years ago) link

BOC is the easiest band ever to fake.

― walter kranz (walterkranz), Friday, 19 August 2005 07:13 (eighteen years ago) link

Reminds me of camping around a fire listen to boards with a few mates up north a few weeks ago!

― fabkat, Saturday, 20 August 2005 17:09 (eighteen years ago) link

Arrrrr!

BOCTOCOPTER

― sickhead, Saturday, 20 August 2005 17:53 (eighteen years ago) link

i have it... havnt listened to it yet.

even if it isnt BoC... if it sounds good, ill like it.

i hope it sounds like hell interface.

pleeeeeeeeeese sound like hell interface, and everything before geogaddi.

― bachrodi, Sunday, 21 August 2005 01:52 (eighteen years ago) link

I downloaded a shit load of boards of canada fakes so far, a couple full album fakes. I still can't believe loyal boards of canada fans would buy into this obvious mirage. Everyone says they are easy to immitate hmm? in theory yes...abut at the same time its nearly impossible. They have been making music forever and nobody else besides them can create that dinstict sound we should all know so well. Although...a few of the fakes have some pretty good songs,plus i just needed something new to listen to. October is a million light years away.

― SamuraiPizzaCat, Sunday, 21 August 2005 17:13 (eighteen years ago) link

pff. two months, thats nothing. otm about the inimitable sound tho

― fe7 (FE7), Sunday, 21 August 2005 17:21 (eighteen years ago) link

A month and a half = a million light years?

― mike h. (mike h.), Sunday, 21 August 2005 17:30 (eighteen years ago) link

I've heard that all of their releases so far have been fake!

― Spencer Chow (spencermfi), Sunday, 21 August 2005 18:25 (eighteen years ago) link

I phoned up boards of canada today and they confirmed that no they don't have a copy of the album either.

― cozen (Cozen), Sunday, 21 August 2005 18:27 (eighteen years ago) link

Dude, how much I would pay to ring Boards up and have IDM themed phone sex.

― Sickhead, Sunday, 21 August 2005 21:24 (eighteen years ago) link

I downloaded one of the leaked cds today.
HOW COULD ANY TRUE BOC FAN FALL FOR THAT??
i mean its not bad music. but its not great, or BoC.

― julie and candy, Monday, 22 August 2005 09:52 (eighteen years ago) link

Humans are strange little creatures. Very weird indeed. Why do we make gods of people like boc? They are just dudes like you and i. Arn't they? Who cares what the album cover looks like?

They do write lovely tunes though. I just cant stop listening to BOC Maxima's 'Whitewater'....very nice. And i love the first track from Acid Memories. Be kind to one another everyone. Love to everyone on this thread xxx

― wordofrecall, Monday, 22 August 2005 10:26 (eighteen years ago) link

shut up, hippie.

― cutty (mcutt), Monday, 22 August 2005 11:36 (eighteen years ago) link

'Whitewater' is one of my favourites. I still prefer Boc Maxima to MHTRTC, Twoism AND Geogaddi I think.

― Sociah T Azzahole (blueski), Monday, 22 August 2005 12:11 (eighteen years ago) link

Hi! Recently i've downloaded BoC new album posted on easynews. All tracks in 320kbps, tracks 16--27 are entitled as Silence (5 secs long each). Nevertheless, i want to mention i will DO buy original album -- BoC is my most favourite electronic project (band?). I'm just currious. Are these tracks true or just another fake (like predecessors).
Something seems to me suspicious about those tracks. Track #05 is too fast-paced, too "dance-like" and sounds more like from Solvent or Am-Boy to me. Also no.14 with its acoustic-piano caused me a strike of "dejavu" to on hearing (i heard this melody somewhere....). I do not know. No much comments on this upload on news group (alt.binaries.sounds.mp3.electronic).
I include some CRC32 checks for songs:
Boards_of_Canada_-_01_-_Into_the_Rainbow_Vein.mp3 3 950 720 bytes, CRC32=F14A8D1E
Boards_of_Canada_-_02_-_Chromakey_Dreamcoat.mp3 10 790 912 bytes, CRC32=BB410FCB

― defor, Monday, 22 August 2005 12:25 (eighteen years ago) link

Too bad...
Poor synths, pathetic drums and misarable tunes..
Definitely, not BOC.
FAKE!...

― selenoid, Monday, 22 August 2005 18:30 (eighteen years ago) link

there is a copy of the album on alt.binaries.mp3s.electronic .... has tracks 16-27 as silence... cant figure it out... is it real? yes, no??

― jbaum, Monday, 22 August 2005 23:30 (eighteen years ago) link

Does it sound like Boards of Canada being silent or an imitation?

― Curt (cgould), Monday, 22 August 2005 23:44 (eighteen years ago) link

However, i'd like to write that those tracks (if fake) are of a very good quality (in a sense of mimicking BoC sound and feel). It is hard to figure out. Definitely the sound of BoC changes and no one can say that their new album will be of the completely same sound as previous ones. Consequently, i can't easily identify these mp3s as a fake because they can now produce more synth tunes, with less "noise" and "backward playing crypted messages".

Can anyone identify those tracks? Are they just mislabeled and already released by other authors on other discs? Only track no.14 seemed to sound familiar to me, like i heard it somewhere before.

I just want to point out that all these increase my anticipation of the new album. I'm really looking forward how the campfire headphase will sound on the date of release :)

― defor, Tuesday, 23 August 2005 06:39 (eighteen years ago) link

The allegedly fake 'Chromakey Dreamcoat' track linked to upthread really is great. It does sound a bit too rich, full and polished for them but great all the same.

― Sociah T Azzahole (blueski), Tuesday, 23 August 2005 08:41 (eighteen years ago) link

whoops, used 'rich, full and polished' as 'negatives' there, gasp.

― Sociah T Azzahole (blueski), Tuesday, 23 August 2005 08:42 (eighteen years ago) link

Can someone tell me where I can get hold of BOC Maxima (legally. or otherwise ;) )

― sickhead, Tuesday, 23 August 2005 09:46 (eighteen years ago) link

;)

― fe7 (FE7), Tuesday, 23 August 2005 09:50 (eighteen years ago) link

It was said else (http://www.stereogum.com/archives/001704.html) that this fake release is originally by Freescha. Does anybody has their albums to confirm?

― defor, Tuesday, 23 August 2005 10:35 (eighteen years ago) link

fe7 hook me up with some hot BOC Maxima shit

― sickhead, Tuesday, 23 August 2005 16:02 (eighteen years ago) link

pay me cash $$$ ok

― fe7 (FE7), Tuesday, 23 August 2005 16:05 (eighteen years ago) link

I have it on slsk

― cozen (Cozen), Tuesday, 23 August 2005 16:18 (eighteen years ago) link

Although BoC usually don't sanction the outside sale of older albums, you can usually find a copy or two for sale (used) from gemm.com. BOC Maxima is pretty cheap right now, but older stuff may cost you a pretty pence.

― octopede, Tuesday, 23 August 2005 16:32 (eighteen years ago) link

Security is 360 and paramount. There are NO leaks. All versions of The Campfire Headphase circulating on the net are fakes no matter what someone has told you. Come October 18th there will be plenty.
