i haven't heard any recent news on them. are they coming out with an album anytime in the near future? when did geogaddi release? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I think it said in a Warp newsletter there is a new EP or album out this year |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
excellent! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
They started working on a new album last summer, but geogaddi took about 4 years after MHTRTC so don't hold your breath ;) I'd like an EP (like IABPITC) to tide me over till their next full length release. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
they are going to take a more drastic change to stay afloat I think... dont get me wrong, I love thier style... but while Geogaddi was different from MHTRTC, it was in a very subtle way... and alot of people took this as failure to progress... I think they need to do something on the next album that kind of catches us off gaurd.... because while I love what they do... if they keep up with the same forumla... it could get old :-\ |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
I like boc but I think they are too specific... like always around the same sound... its good and I love their releases, but it seems they are just interested in that particular sound. mhtrtc is one of my fav all time releases |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i read in an interview that they were working in a new sound, but because of fans pression they decide to release geogaddi keeping a similar mhtrtc style. im sure their next release will be totally different, more "natural" sounds i think... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i would imagine that any new BoC will have clear threads tying it back to every other piece of music they've released... while still managing to break new ground, much like Geogaddi (which DID break new ground and sounds relatively distant from past releases) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
uhrmm they said in a recent interview that they were taking it back to the old sound, more analog minimalistic sounding twoism style.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
at the moment to me BOC arre the most exciting electrronic arrtists out therre, but as zeus said, they could become borring |

Boring Old Canada |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
if titsworth's site is to be believed, the next album will be all new material recorded after geogaddi, nothing recycled from the early to mid 90s but i think the most definitive explanation was just provided by pOgO |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
canada ain't boring. have you SEEN the mooses here??? damn... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i gotta say, Canada is a place i'd love to go visit. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
canada is beautiful.. well, mostly. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
good dope in vancouver. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i heart canada |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
canada does look very pretty =oD BOC are boring though |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Canada is great, as is Boards of Canada... they use our name well! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
glad i'm not the only one who thinks they should evolve...!! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
good shit never gets old BOC is timeless imo |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yes... im not saying that thier current songs will get old... its just that, they cant keep doing the same thing... its like the beatles... I wanna hold your hand was, is, and always will be a great song... but what if the beatles just kept writing songs in that style? it would have gotten old... they progressed... kept their beatles sound... but expanded on it.... now there is even more music to love by them... and for different reasons. make sense? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
boring, how so? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
except boc is way more talented than te beatles. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Talent is relative, you can't really boc are more talented than the beatles. the way boc produce stuff is very different. They are both incredibly talented in completely different ways. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
imo boc is more talented. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i keep playing geogaddi and i still don't really like it that much. but i'm sure they'll be happy with the 20 quid i paid for it. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Geogaddi is fuckin' dark in comparison, to every thing else they've done so it's understandable. I love it though!!! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i don't really like twoism either. but i love the 2 eps, the peel sessions and mhtrtc. i don't usually see things in such black-and-whiteness, i swear! :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
see. twoism is my favorite. *shrugs* |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
twoism is real nice... simple melodies and percussion, but real sweet! Geogaddi is great, I enjoy it more then MHTRTC... and ABPOITC is just amazing!! I as well hope they change their style... I love their music, but I don't want them to keep repeating the same thing... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
I think Boards of Canada should have dissapeared after 'Music Has the Right to Children'. Just upped and vanished. |
||||||||
|
|

Canada: home of The National Film Board of Canada i used to watch the NFBOC nature documentaries from the 70s when i was a kid growing up in poland quite a lot, so that classic synth sound (which BOC call their 'secret weapon') is permanently engrained into my brain - i'm glad BOC carries the mantle of that sound into the new millennium, because it really does deserve to live on - i loved those nature documentary soundtracks! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I only really like 'happy cycling' and a few of their more 'techno' tracks. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
oh jeez, Twoism is ace If they keep making good music like MHTRTC, well, I'd be the last to complain, I can't see it ever getting boring. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ouch, i am so happy with geogaddi, i can still listen to it (well, not for the weeks straight that i did when it came out, anyway). i think it is more edgy than their previous releases, but i wouldn't mind them changing it up a bit. i've got faith, i'm sure anything they release will be great, and i can't wait. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
right you are. boc is my favorite thing right now they are great to turn way way up with all the windows open while you're doing your laundry or any time really |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
if opheck heard you say that, he would ban you....... |

NeoExmnist that was directed towards you |

I didn't mean it in an ouchy way. I really like Geogaddi too.. I just meant that it would have been really neat-o if, after release, they just dropped out and returned to their rural life. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
this fall is what i heard. the new album that is.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
still think "geogaddi" is a beautiful album from start to finish.there's a new BOC remix on the new Boom Bip 12" too. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I like boc maxima much more than mhtrtc...i like most of the songs on mhtrtc but rue the whirl sucks though imo. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I like the end of rue the wind with the reversed synth line with delay the best part of the song. iotherwise it's nothing special |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
No? Rue's one of my faves off mhtrtc, and roygbiv is Fucking awesome as well!!! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
nod, rue the whirl is real nice! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Rue the Whirl is amazing. I don't want to stir the olt tunes pot any more than necessary (apparently a lot of em may not be boc...) but 'Sir Prancelot Brainfire'/'Dave came to Mana'h'im(sp?)' (the one that sounds like the theme music to a 70s cartoon) is simply one of the best pieces of music i've ever heard Also Zoetrope... amazing stuff. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Sir Prancelot is a seventies cartoon (or eighties?). ran on bbc i think.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i dont think boc are capable of anything radically different from their current style... the way i see it, mhtr2c was good, geog was more experimental, and a new release would be the same but even more experimental....at lease thats what im hoping for... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i was watching this documentry on PBS about a month or two ago... on radioactive and biological warefar, with terrorists... and almost ALL of the music was BoC just a little fun fact for ya |
