Guest Oorto Geld Posted May 18, 2006 Share Posted May 18, 2006 What are "So I Says" and "At the Embankment"? Track #19 and track #16 from 'Old Tunes Vol. 1'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Oorto Geld Posted May 18, 2006 Share Posted May 18, 2006 The titles came with the files. Their legitimacy is questionable (as is the case with pretty much all pre-Twoism material), but the track names sound pretty BoC-esque to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strange, seems rather run-of-the-mill to me. Track 6 or 8 off side one are better IMO. I agree track 16 is super. I thought none of the old tunes 1 tracks had titles, apart from the ones that appear on the other old tunes tapes. I wouldn't trust those names. The title "At the Embankment" sounds too much like "up the march bank" for one. Could you list all the old tunes volume 1 names you have, I'm sure others would be interested.

I think that I like #19 because it's so dissimilar to any other BoC track (probably why I like 'House of Adin'abab' too, although the wobbly synth used it that track does remind me of 'Twoism') Anyway, here are the track names that came with the files: 01 - Stained Glass Window 02 - She Is P 03 - Parallax Radio 04 - Valeridon Beat-Bop 05 - Finity 06 - Maynard 07 - Cable Convolution 08 - My Heterotopia 09 - Fiz 10 - Excused 11 - Talgyha 12 - Deep Dive 13 - I Look Upon 14 - Nocturnal Roundabout 15 - I Will Get It Tattooed 16 - At The Embankment 17 - Key To The Lock 18 - House of Abin'adab 19 - So I Says 20 - Helukshnicht 21 - Cement 22 - Playtime 23 - Glacier Meltdown 24 - Nod 25 - Arrange Me Strange 26 - Theo's Piece 27 - Petua 28 - Davie Addison 29 - It's How You Move 30 - Aspheric Universe 31 - Czar 32 - Drone Pattern 33 - Onwards, Jetta 34 - White Van 35 - Wheat Dreams Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lumpenprol Posted May 19, 2006 Share Posted May 19, 2006 Thanks. Looking over those I don't believe they're authentic - they sound like someone trying to think up BoC like names, rather than names BoC would choose. Though you never know...

Guest Oorto Geld Posted May 19, 2006 Share Posted May 19, 2006 Yeah, I've seen the infamous fakes flying about: 'Lavender Trapezoids', and things like that. Anyway, yeah, I have my suspicions about their authenticity...but I've gotten so used to associating the tracks with those names, that I just tend to real 'em off. Oh well...if they are authentic, then that's great. If not...well, it's easier for me to remember those titles, rather than refer to a song as 'Track X'.

Yeah those names do seem pretty fan-made. Yet, i don't know, i've never seen those titles before, yet they're more like excluded tracks from Selected Ambient Works Vol. 2.

Guest Moebius Posted May 19, 2006 Share Posted May 19, 2006 Hmm, I'm also rather suspicious of those names. Even esoteric BoC names usually are a references to something, yet Talgyha and Helukshnicht (a combination of inuit and german?) have no hits on Google, and Valeridon has just one which is a typo for Philippe Saisse's album Valerian.

Guest pandagun Posted May 19, 2006 Share Posted May 19, 2006 i realize we have these list things on a regular basis (perhaps too regular), but i can't recall having seen one in the past year ... plus the TCH tracks will surely change any top 10 list (it changed mine, at least). also i think we should allow remixes, old tunes stuff, and the short 'bridge' tracks, but i leave this up to each of you in making your own lists. well: 1. slow this bird down 2. in a beautiful place out in the country 3. broken drum remix 4. kid for today 5. dayvan cowboy 6. julie and candy 7. olson 8. left side drive 9. everything you do is a balloon 10. aquarius Mine are: 1. Olson 2. Last Walk Around Mirror Lake (remix) 3. A is to B as B is to C (reversed) 4. Everything You Do is a Balloon 5. Satellite Anthem Icarus 6. Buckie High 7. An Eagle in Your Mind 8.

Guest Oorto Geld Posted May 19, 2006 Share Posted May 19, 2006 Alright, folks, there's been a bit of a (confusing) development: I compared the track durations on Fredd-e's site to those that I have on my system, and there were some inconsistencies. I found the 'Untitled' version of 'Old Tunes Vol 1.' on Soulseek, and some songs on it were different to the ones that I had (I'm assuming that these are the files that you guys have?). Anyway, there were four tracks that were different. I'll post 'em up here to see if any of you can identify them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting... check to see if the oddballs seem to come from the same rip as the rest (i.e. consistent bitrate, stereo, similar id3 tags).

Guest Oorto Geld Posted May 19, 2006 Share Posted May 19, 2006 Apologies for the double post (wouldn't let me edit my other message for some reason). They're all pretty small in size and length (bitrates vary, too): Your browser does not support the HTML5 audio tag Unknown #1 -- Reminds me of 'Aquarius'. Uses a sample from 'On A Rolling Sea'. Sounds genuine. Your browser does not support the HTML5 audio tag Unknown #2 -- Sounds like a heavily distorted siren of sorts. Probably fake. Your browser does not support the HTML5 audio tag Unknown #3 -- Sounds very similar to 'Energy Warning'. Sounds genuine enough. Your browser does not support the HTML5 audio tag Unknown #4 -- Reminds me of Track #34 from (the genuine version of) 'Old Tunes Vol. 1'. Could be fake.

lumpenprol Posted May 19, 2006 Share Posted May 19, 2006 First is Orange Romeda. Genuine BoC track. Others don't ring any bells, probably fake. The energy warning one may just be that track, but fucked with by someone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
