easterlingman Posted March 11, 2006 Share Posted March 11, 2006 yeah, i love this track... probably in my top 10 boc tracks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcbpete Posted March 11, 2006 Share Posted March 11, 2006 Man it really is an amazing little track (Although the drum loop lets it down somewhat). If they slightly altered the drums to something slightly less repetitive it would be one of the finest BoC tracks ever created. So much emotion contained in such a little track.

Sam Posted March 11, 2006 Share Posted March 11, 2006 A very moving song....I actually find that one quite hard to listen to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lumpenprol Posted March 12, 2006 Share Posted March 12, 2006 My favorite BoC track, along with Kid For Today. It is so fragile and perfect I don't listen to it much, for fear of spoiling the effect. I've heard other people talk about what song they'd want played at their funeral, well, this is mine. It is simply beyond words. Too bad they don't make tracks like this anymore. It always makes me wonder what other perfect tracks might be hidden in hooper bay, acid memories, closes, etc. I bet there are a couple. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
playbynumbers Posted March 12, 2006 Share Posted March 12, 2006 i once started a thread about the first 0:46 of that track ... that beginning wobbly synth is like quintessential uber-beautiful BoC. i always picture a sunrise, during winter, when i hear that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It always makes me wonder what other perfect tracks might be hidden in hooper bay, acid memories, closes, etc. I bet there are a couple. yeah.. this is so what makes BOC great. it's simple, yet complex and has several layers of meaning.. it just sets off so many memories for me.. being outside all day playing as a kid, in the middle of summer, and at the end of the day when it begins getting colder and the sky turns orange. what i feel BOC brings me back to the most are those really short timeless moments, when you for instance stopped and looked at the sky or the sun, felt the wind.. seeing the sun like this, this is soo BOC: http://www.atpm.com/6.08/konstanz/images/sunset.jpg as a little kid i lived in the southern parts of sweden where it was slightly rural.. was outside in nature alot, and the summerdays are just so beautful near the sea there. lots of little islands and shit, with old bunkers and stuff on them too. it reminds me of AMIGA's and early tape recorders that my brothers recorded stuff with, old equipment.. the 90's just began when i was little, i don't know why but i seriously love old looking electronic equipment like tape players.. the "futuristic" design back then, the stuff you saw in science magazines.. that orange color of japanese robots for instance. what i don't understand is how BOC can affect you so damn much.

playbynumbers Posted March 12, 2006 Share Posted March 12, 2006 what i don't understand is how BOC can affect you so damn much. i often wonder this ... like how do they know to tune the synths just right, so it hits all sort of eidetic childhood overwhelming nostalgia beauty-ness Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kid For Today's melodic tone as well. I like listening to BoC music while being tired. I feel druggy, sleepy and underwatered. :angel: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tec Posted March 13, 2006 Share Posted March 13, 2006 This is such an amazing track, I know a few of the purists look down on people for getting 'Old Tunes' as BoC never meant for it to be heard by the public but it would be awful for a fan to never hear this. Gorgeous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joyrex Posted March 14, 2006 Share Posted March 14, 2006 You're both wrong - The Telecom Italia commercial (called "quiet") does not feature 5-9-78, but another unreleased BoC track altogether. I've attached both for comparison :wink2: telecom.mov 26___5_9_78.mp3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onecaseman Posted March 14, 2006 Share Posted March 14, 2006 I already said I was mistaken just above your post. It's the Nissan commercial that uses "5-9-78". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest lands end road Posted March 16, 2006 Share Posted March 16, 2006 did you add noise reduction to it? sounds all noise reductiony. If possible could you add a non noise reductioned version?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest dannniel Posted March 16, 2006 Share Posted March 16, 2006 someone needs to make an mp3 of the track from the telecom add. its great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alzado Posted March 16, 2006 Share Posted March 16, 2006 someone needs to make an mp3 of the track from the telecom add. its great. it sounds like a combination of tracks to me. anyone here the Numbers transmission at the end? "5, 7". that's the same one that's used in Gyroscope i think. they sample themselves so much that it shouldn't be a surprise that some of this stuff sounds familiar. MHTRTC is fully of tiny bits of the old tunes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
