Boards of Canada: Classic or Dud?

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...

Apparently, the last time a new discography entry was reserved (that black square next to their last EP) a new album/EP was announced within the week -> ?

Hoping.

that def feels like the sorta thing they'd do, provided their history.

if only

...I had the guts to feel this way

1. Talk To The Sword (6:17)
2. Netskape Eschaton (3:01)
3. Bermuda Short (0.59)
4. Harlem Numbers (8:10)
5. Roundings (7:22)

the tension is killing me

haha i've been checking every god damn day

1. Aleph Rising
2. Cochineal Helix
3. 50 Golden Goals
4. Mobius Flute
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?

There's a geogaddi vinyl from £67.99 new&used on amazon.co.uk

$440 if you'd like it new

but yeesh, approx $70US dollars is just way too much. I feel like I'm going out of my way when I get something for $25, esp. when I never actually buy anything on vinyl I don't already have (or will have within 30secs of downloading).

but i've def been on some boc personal revivalism the past couple weeks... i'm kinda appalled i've never listened to the interludes in geogaddi. they're horrifying.

like this one

fact that there's a video should totally be ignored, and kinda ruins the imaginative aspect of it in the first place (not really being a "song"). i literally envision a giant fly buzzing around a city - the city in some odd postwar haze, as suggested by the piano. the buzzing seems to near you, the listener, but ignore you again to fly elsewhere until there comes the point where it absolutely overwhelms by proximity and that consistent sound of train tracks totally mutates into the screams of the citizenry, quelling the piano.

anyway.

a bit anti-climatic considering i thought w/ the blank album art that they'd already had an album prepped, but still welcome n00z

lol I don't even know why they even bothered with that message. It's not like they need the hype.

OMGz, a studio!

Thanks for the update though.

pfffff.... this is ridiculous

can't believe they are still using myspace as a promotional vehicle
