After copying hundreds of minidisks for the last couple of years, I decided to start purchasing some real cds again.
No need for more AFX, I've got nearly all of his work by now.
So first on my list are Boards of Canada (I own that Skam EP) and a band called 'Four Tet', of which I have one live bootleg which sounds amazing.
Does anyone a) know a place with a (preferrably complete) discography of either, and b) feel like suggesting the best album(s) and maxi's to go for?
Much appreciated.

Maybe it would be easier if I knew if there are BOC cds which actually aren't worth the purchase. I know they are brilliant, but my wallet won't allow me to buy dozens of cds, so I definitely don't want anything less than brilliant...
Four Tet just one guy? Okay, that's a start... :)
Additionally, let me also recommend you people a cd by a Belgian guy called Anton Price. He's a drummer/programmer, and apparently more or less well-known as a DJ too.
Since last december he has a debut album out (a real one, not a mix-album) called 'The Collapse of the state vector', and i personally think it has some very, very good moments.
The AFX/µ-ziq/Squarepusher influences are apparent, but he's not aping them.
If you've ran out of ideas on what to buy next, this might be something to consider.
(it would be very eccentric for most of you to have a Belgian album in your cd rack - all the kids in the neighbourhood will want to come have a look at it for sure! You'll be the coolest guy in town!)

I went to Belgium on a school trip in 1997. We were staying in a hostel, and one night a bunch of local teenage nutters started throwing lit firecrackers through the open windows of the dorms while shouting things like,"Show yourself!" in hilarious continental accents. So I started shouting, "A freeze is coming!" a la Arnold Schwarzenegger in Batman & Robin. This confused them..

And yes, mr. Xanatos, we do make waffles. All the time. That and nothing else. All of us. That's what we do.

Where can you find boards of canada if you live in the U.S. I can't find anything except music has the right to children and that is prob my least favorite one. I have a lot of stuff on mp3 but want the actual albums. I'm mostly interested in online retailers you know of. Thanks

hi scores ep is still in print. in a beautfiul place out in the country ep is also available stateside. maybe my alltime favorite boc track is "eno test." it's one of their really early tracks (i'm talking like early 90's) but i don't know what it's on. in any case, find an mp3 of it, it's well worth it.

Glass: order them off of a record company, or try amazon.com, or even ebay.com
