This site is great if you dont know about it. Lots of old school synths and drum machines to play around with. You can open several at a time for a nice layered effect , also great for background rhythms to whatever you might be listening too. http://www.keyboardmuseum.org/d_machines/vdrums.html http://www.keyboardmuseum.org/d_machines/dr220a.html ^^^ this one is me fav. Ps. maybe i'm just stoned and easily amused.

Boards of Canada Resequence BoC
by Guest YMBD- 1 reply
- 896 views
You are the producer. (well, ok, haha not really from the looks of this site, haha.) From their 300+ extant tracks, remake MHTRTC and Geogaddi.. 2 albums: under 90 minutes each; otherwise, no rules. Reverse whatever the fuck you like. In fact, just go ahead and DO whatever the fuck you like to what Boards of Canada have already done. BTW: Idioron mcgriff is not eligible to participate. Well, ok, haha you can go do what you can do.

We've Started Up

Yo, I love the old tunes. I'm listening to them now. Is the vocal in We've Started Up sampled from another track? It sounds familiar but I have no idea what it is. If it's from another track I'd love to know what it is so I can check it out. Anyone know what it is?

Boards of Canada What are you expecting for BoC's next release? 1 2
by Guest Enter a new display name- 46 replies

What's do you expect from their next album? Do you think it will have another modern style, just like Campfire Headphase? When do you think it will release??? This year, in 4 years, who knows??? What will be its name??? The last thing we could expect would be if the album will be a good one. What I think is it'll keep a modern style, because Boards of Canada would have to evolve their style. It'll release in end of 2007, 2008 or 2009. I expect it'll have a philosophical name, or something like that. And, of course, it'll kick-ass, like all their albums!!!

i started a thread about this on the previous incarnation of wattem, actually just before it crashed ... in any event, i've just replaced the strings on my acoustic guitar, and was wondering if someone with better ears than i could figure out the chords/tabs to 'sai' or 'dayvan' or whichever. as far as i recall, tabs for a few tracks were posted in the old thread ... but of course this is lost now. thanks in advance!

Boards of Canada Have you ever dreamt about Boards of Canada?
by Guest Enter a new display name- 20 replies

I have dreamt twice about BOC. They were both really bizare. 1st dream: I was walking in the corridors of my school heading to my class, and suddenly, I hear Aquarius playing from nowhere. I thought it was from the intercom and so I asked my teacher, who were standing beside her class door, "where is that song from?". She replied me " I don't know". 2nd dream: I dreamt that Michael Sandison was kinda member of my family. I talked to him, I met him at my house and at school. And when I wanted his autograph, he mysteriously disappeared. This is sad... :(

The Buckie High and 5-9-78 threads inspired me to go back and listen to the Old Tunes tracks again. Hadn't really appreciated this track much before, but it's ace. Has the menace of Oirectine with a dash of the beauty of Sixtyniner. Not that much to add, I suppose. List your favorite underappreciated BoC track here, if you like.

I am new here and I thought this is a good place to ask: I noticed that they used a sample from Strawberry Fields Forever by the Beatles on Kid For Today and also on Sequoia from A Few Old Tunes - actually, the latter I noticed first, since it's more recognizable. It is just the left channel thumping drumbeat, and I am pretty sure about that. However, I don't have the sleeve for In a Beautiful Place and just wanted to know if it was credited. I know that the Aquarius sample from Hair still surprises some fans, and maybe the same goes for the sampled beat from last Night A DJ Saved My Life on Nlogax. I am interested in checking out other music BoC have sampled, since in …
