It's probably lurking on here somewhere as well, but since the XYZ track from the Peel Session is finally released, thought it might be cool to hear them talking about their music to John Peel... Boards_of_Canada_Peel_Session_21_July_1998_full_interview.mp3

What do you people make of the percussion in this track? I must have listened to it 50 times and still can't really make sense of what is going on, normal drum kit sounds processed through analogue equipment? How is that "wet" elasticity part of the beat made and what is it really tied to? Sometimes while listening I get glimpses of something that makes a lot more sense but I can usually only hold onto that for a few seconds before it disappears.

This little filler is so fucking beautiful. I wonder if it actually is a full song buried deep in a BoC vault. Would love to hear it expanded on. https://youtu.be/5dOwYf5LNNo

Reversed Geogaddi 1 2 3

I was really, really curious in doing this. The end result was absolutely awesome. Awesome if scary is your thing. I listened to this in my basement in complete darkness, going from the 24th Japanese bonus track in reverse to Ready Lets Go, and at some parts I seriously was terrified. Well maybe not _terrified_ but without a doubt I was getting really, really freaked out. Some songs are MEANT to be heard in reverse (Dandelion, Dawn Chorus, I Saw Drones, a bunch others) while some songs you really get creeped out by some of the stuff you hear when played in reverse.

Also mentioned in the vinyl reissues thread, but important enough to repeat here - BOC's 1996 classic on Skam Records, Hi Scores, is available again on vinyl, CD and digital download via Bleep.com: https://bleep.com/release/5213-boards-of-canada-hi-scores If you don't already own this release, it is a MUST HAVE for any BOC/classic electronic music fan.

Odd Nosdam uploaded all the instrumentals for the cLOUDDEAD LP 'Ten' onto YouTube, including the BoC Remix instrumental! Amazing how much was buried by the vocals! So far as I can tell this can only be found on YouTube for the time being, and who knows how long it'll stay up:

I've mentioned this before, and a certain Site Administrator indicated we should probably revisit the topic some time after TH has been released, so I think this is a fair time to re-introduce this idea: So far, the LPs have each had a distinct tone that could possibly be attributed to an element: MHTRTC - Air (sounds play out as if at a distance and melodies like dust motes) Geogaddi - Fire (reduced use of reverb, claustrophobic, dry tones, crackling sounds) TCH - Water (more polished production/wet or clean sound, juxtaposed with some sounds I would say seem "water-damaged", drums in Dayvan Cowboy sound like a rhythmic representation of waves) TH - Earth (I had kin…

I can never get enough of BoC's quality and original sound, but are there any other artists that are similar? I've been trying to find some and failed to discover what I was looking for.
