Check on e-bay. Boards of Canada's extremely rare Twoism LP is currently valued at nearly $300! And a caption at the side says, 'Buy this now for $600'. Is this for real!?

Erm, I'm not sure I know how to. Is this what you do? www.ebay.com. Anyway, the album is currently valued at $360, and the caption reads 'Buy this item now for $695. This is unreal!

Well, ebay is an online auction site, and the bidding goes on for an item until the deadline is reached; however, you can at any time buy certain items by paying enormous prices for them, thus circumventing the tedious bidding system that is used.
phobiazero, what is this album like? Do you have Hi Scores as well, because it is there on ebay and I was thinking of getting it.

Anyway, somebody must have just paid through the nose, because the Twoism LP is not auctioned there now, and neither is Hi Scores. Perhaps I shouldn't have drawn people's attention to it, because I was just about to buy the fucking thing. Tssk.

It's not hard to find mp3s of Twoism, Hi Scores and BOC Maxima. Good look with the older stuff!

Hi Scores should be available for a reasonable price .. try www.realgroovy.co.nz before shelling out a lot of cash on hi scores (tho i'm sure its available at other online stores)

I think Twoism and Maxima are quite ok, but far from their last stuff.

I don't know, but I bet they will... warp re-released Hi Scores didn't they, so I'm sure Twoism will probably be re-released... but who knows, maybe not...

How does it sound??? Hard to say - I can't describe it very well. I'd say most people who like MHTRTC would like those three albums.
Hi Scores is my favorite release by BoC...

It was Skam. But what about that "limited ed" of Geogaddi with the special cover? It's still on warpmart, and in the stores. Limited my ass!

I just went and got myself Autechre's 'Anvil Vapre' EP and Aphex Twin's 'Quoth' EP. I don't know what they're like, as I've only heard Quoth on the Sine Waves album. Are they any good?

Anvil Vapre is good, and if you like old AFX, I guess you will like Quoth too. Not my favourite, though...

Twoism is probably BOC's best EP, very sombre and melancholic, and loaded with their signature SH-101 synth mastery.
You'll get to hear clips of it and more BoC soon on watmm.com

Those guys know that their records are selling for 700 quid on eBay, so maybe they'll realize that re-releasing them means more $ for them and happier fans.

yeah, there is definately a demand for those old albums, so why not release them again... most people have them anyways in MP3 form, so why not release them again and try and make some money from it?
