Boards of Canada Skam Reissues Hi Scores on Vinyl/CD/Download

[omnii]

Does anyone know if the download on bleep you get with a pre-order is the remaster? You get it immediately with purchase. I wonder if the remaster only applies to the physical version...

[petina]

something tells me it isn't

Wouldn't that be disingenuous though for them to offer an inferior version digitally? (one could argue all digital versions are inferior, but that's a subject for another thread)

[petina]

the preview on bleep doesn't sound much like this

 

 

but of course it's heavily compressed, so... maybe someone who bought theirs from bleep could compare it with this?

[omnii]

Perhaps they will switch the downloadable version with the remaster on physical re-release date?

Seems strange, but i don't know how else they would handle it.

[acroyear]

the photo in the cover artwork embedded with the download is not in color, and doesn't sound any different

[Hi Guys]

man. i really hope i can somehow get a remastered dl of it with my vinyl pre order.

[manmower]

Just wait until someone rips their CD and download it buy the CD and rip it?

 

Even though this is some of my favorite BOC I managed not to acquire a physical copy all these years so yeah I'll take both formats thanks.

[Guest transmisiones ferox]

fucka I'm so excited to have this on the vinyl, Nlogax, EYDIAB, are fuckin in your face, funky as fuck, Nlogax is so fuckin reward and Turquoise Hexagon Sun is my favorite BOC track

[beerwolf]

Must say I'm looking forward to getting these

[Bordie]

I don't have a turntable and I've preordered the vinyl, I'm so hyped

[Friendly Stranger]

I have to stand up and walk around the room a couple times every time i think about hearing EYDIAB on vinyl.

[Caretstik]

I will be astounded if this isn't delayed. Still showing as 'pre-order' in my Bleep account.

surely must be the same version as on the vinyl? it wouldn't make any sense for it to not be.

 

i feel like i'm waiting for ever for this

 

PS just 3 more days!!!

[Caretstik]

Ah, there you go, estimated shipping is now 20th October. Why don't Skam just wait until their records are actually available? Hope this isn't going to go the same way as the VHS Head vinyl fiasco.

Best laid plans of mice and men...

that's cool, gives me a few more weeks to get the money together, no worries here

Is anyone else having a trouble with Skam shop site? For at least two weeks my browser has given me the notice ''Oops, there's seems to be something wrong with the page''. skam.co.uk works though. With all those delays I'm really hoping that Skam isn't the next label put to sleep.

Phew! skam.co.uk yet links to the old address...

[kinski]

why is bleep so weird. they pushed back the date and offer me lossless files, so im like 'right on, right on' and it turns out i can just buy them cheaper. jesus christ. just throw them in for free to compensate for the delay, not use it to make me buy more of your stuff.

[Guest jasondonervan]

New pics (I think?) from the Bleep mailer. Ooh yeah.

[AliceS]

Also looks like the date's been moved to the 17th!

[MadameChaos]

What? I wondering why I'm still waiting for my release. Liberties.

[Tricone RC]

I'm not sure I want to hear BOC remastered - part of their appeal for me is the slightly gritty, lo-fi edge their older stuff has. Like the faded edges in an old newspaper
