Guest 000890569 Posted October 29, 2010 Share Posted October 29, 2010 God, looking at the comments here I think I just embarrassed myself. I do apologize if this is old news/fake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest 000890569 Posted October 29, 2010 Share Posted October 29, 2010 The comments on the YouTube video. Many state that it's a fake, and I didn't realize it was posted over a year ago. Of course I shouldn't trust random comments yelling "fake!" either. I'm just curious as to why it's been online for over a year and just released on iTunes under Boards of Canada.

Fredd-E Posted October 29, 2010 Share Posted October 29, 2010 Someone managed to upload his own track to the iTunes store under the moniker of Boards of Canada... how it's possible I don't even know. I would've thought Apple's iTunes store would have a little bit better quality control in their verification of uploaded music some way or another... apparently not?

fumi Posted October 29, 2010 Share Posted October 29, 2010 Cannot even begin to understand how iTunes allowed this to be uploaded. Don't they check stuff? Track is lame too. A fake created by someone with no understanding of the band's evolution and style. The idea they would use the cliched kids samples at this point in their career. Colour me facepalmed.

Guest sirch Posted October 30, 2010 Share Posted October 30, 2010 Track is lame too. A fake created by someone with no understanding of the band's evolution and style. The idea they would use the cliched kids samples at this point in their career. i think it's a good tune. how do you know the artist has no understanding of their evolution and style? i think it sounds quite a lot like the Boards.... maybe it's a friend of theirs. who knows? and why would they not use "kids samples" anymore? i'd laugh if the new album has kids laughing on it.

Guest 000890569 Posted October 30, 2010 Share Posted October 30, 2010 A recent YouTube comment points the album art to an album by Susumu Yokota named, quite obviously, Kaleidoscope: http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_BN7gjhMtQfY/TJMd4OXE7wI/AAAAAAAACHA/Uny6yIhSJ3k/s1600/susumu_yokota_kaleidoscope_albumcover_k.jpg Between this and "new clear dawn," it amazes me the lengths some will go to create a hoax. This one in particular is very misleading and I hope iTunes notices soon enough. Posing as someone else and stealing another artist's album artwork is a pretty low move in my opinion.

Guest sirch Posted October 31, 2010 Share Posted October 31, 2010 Read the rules. no thanks. obviously i was only joking around. :) anyway i like the chameleon track whether it's really BoC or not. more people should do this kind of thing, imo! oh the drama. at the very least Boards have come out of hiding and given their public 5 whole words. that's like 1 and a bit words for every year they've been hiding away since Campfire! lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
