Joyrex Posted March 24, 2010 Share Posted March 24, 2010 Don't let Alzado troll you - Hearing Hooper Bay is nigh impossible, since it was never officially released, and no copies exist in the hands of people willing to give it out for free.

saikobjorn Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 Those múm tracks are really good though. I really got my hopes up high first time I heard it. I think it's a nice BoC praise, though I'd rather have the original Hooper Bay :) The release I'm most eager for hearing though, is Acid Memories. Such a mysterious title, and the cover is pure excellence. Wonder if we'll ever get to hear them one day... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pera Posted March 26, 2010 Share Posted March 26, 2010 sorry but that cover is another fake http://bocpages.org/wiki/Acid_Memories (Fake) Boards Of Canada - Acid Memories EP 01 - Duffy original track: [1998] Music has the right to children, 08 - kaini industries 02 - Growing Hand original track: [2002] Geogaddi, 11 - 1969 03 - Petina original track: [1998] Music has the right to children, 02 - an eagle in your mind 04 - Stry Craty Bya (unknown) is not BoC, maybe is a track called Eno Test by Stereolab with Marumari 05 - Helter Skater original track: [1996] Hi Scores, 03 - Nlogax 06 - Echo The Sun original track: [1999] Splitrmx12 EP, A - Autechre Play Weissensee Against Im Gluck (Original Composition by Neu!)

Guest Calx Sherbet Posted March 26, 2010 Share Posted March 26, 2010 I love when you see people commenting on the fake hooper bay/unreleased boc album tracks on last.fm. isn't one of the leaks a mum album? big lols. also some of the tracks off old tunes appear in other boc releases in a different form so we know for a fact those are legit. legit tracks could be thrown on to a fan-made fake to give it credibility. the fake Q Chastic release. the fake had that CAT002 track, but the other 3 tracks weren't even made by Richard but i still believe the old tunes are real Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Calx Sherbet Posted March 26, 2010 Share Posted March 26, 2010 did the "car commercial" track ever appear anywhere on a release? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
murve33 Posted March 26, 2010 Share Posted March 26, 2010 sorry but that cover is another fake http://bocpages.org/wiki/Acid_Memories Really? Damn, it seems like that image has been floating around forever. I think I read once that BOC was surprised that Acid Memories didn't get leaked. I assume the same guy that leaked BOC Maxima also had Acid Memories or something like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alzado Posted March 26, 2010 Share Posted March 26, 2010 I'm not convinced the Acid Memories cover is a fake. Didn't that come from the original cosmic crofter site? and it wasn't it also on the discography on the old music70 site? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joyrex Posted March 26, 2010 Share Posted March 26, 2010 I'm not convinced the Acid Memories cover is a fake. Didn't that come from the original cosmic crofter site? and it wasn't it also on the discography on the old music70 site? Think about why then we've never seen an Acid Memories cassette or J-card (the actual cassette), and the cover formats were all CD-cover shaped (on all those releases), even though it was originally a cassette? Sure, it could have been cropped down to a square to fit the site best, but the layout of most of those fit a CD cover composition (or not a real cover at all) best, and would be odd to crop off parts of the artwork. I would assume those covers were 'manufactured' to best illustrate their early releases on that website, and weren't the actual covers of the releases themselves. Those early releases were DIY efforts made for friends and family, and as stated on the Cosmic Crofter's EHX site back then, were from his private collection and not available. Think about that. That's just what HE had of their pre-commercial works, by no means a complete listing of their early material. The BoC discography starts with Twoism, in terms of commercial releases. Even BoC Maxima (which I know exists since I have an original cassette, and it's not a commercially-produced cassette tape) shouldn't be considered an "official" commercial release, and hence why it (and any of the pre-Twoism stuff) isn't included anymore in any official BoC discographies.
