I think "Hi Scores" is pure BOC. The purest most skill most goddam great BOC all jammed together. Oh and BOC at their best I have to say I think are better than Aphex. I been thinking this a lot recently what does the board reckon? |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
is hi scores their first ep? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
NO ! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
NO ! a) in a beautiful place and music has the right are much better NO ! b) there were at least 4 releases before hi scores, mostly impossible to find |
||||||||
|

haha ok wow you really mean it. |
||||||||

Hell no. The quality of tracks on it is just too good. I think to be honest some of the tracks are so potent that its almost exausting to listen to. I mean really they just have that "je ne se que". I really think at their best BOC are in a league of their own. And the consistancy in which they do it. I mean for every BOC release you just get quality and seriously impacting tracks. And just to think I poo pooed them when I first heard them. Mad totally mad. |

" And just to think I poo pooed them when I first heard them." lol i did too they definately grow on ya |
||||||||

morguean, Yeah mad completely mad. I remember listening to them and thinking god this is so boring. Well I was listening to Squarepusher at the time and to me he was the dogs bollocks, well he still is. But you catch my drift. Lol. |

The first track I heard by BoC was Pete Standing Alone and I fel in love with it straight away. I have been a fan ever since. |
||||||||

Its funny my little sister is a complete BOC nut and Autechre too. Totally into them more than Aphex and SP. But I never appreciated BOC as much until literally about 6-8 months ago. Sad eh! |
||||||||

this is one of the first BOC songs i heard. it had a great emotional affect on me right on the first listen. this is the track that got me into BOC. i luuuv it |

Hi Scores is very good but I dont think I would call it their best. I leave that distinction to Everything you do is a balloon. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
"Everything you do is a balloon" is on the Hi Scores ep. I am talking about the Hi Scores ep. |
||||||||

boc is great. any of their albums will do fine, although in a beautiful place ep is their best work. they make the only music i know of that i can listen to at any time, in any mood, and love it. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yes I agree. I think BOC you can put on any time and get into it. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
BoC is probably my favorite at the moment. i think Geogaddi is the tastiest. all their tracks are so Thick. like they crawl into my earhole and turn my brain into a milkshake. like a fucking citrus flavored milkshake. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
hi scores is indeed great... my favourite probably. but NO, boc will never ever reach aphex´s level imo |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I recently bought "In A Beautiful..." and "Music Has..." and I'm really hooked to "Music Has...," almost every track is just brilliant and works perfectly. I got into BOC by listening to "Roygbiv," because that line is so goddamned catchy. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
god damn Roygbiv is probably my favorite BoC track. i always listen to it like 3 times in a row when i listen to MHTRTC. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
"i think Geogaddi is the tastiest." yeah, this cd gets seemingly little attention from peeps on these boards (no pun). i like it best , all the BOC ingredients used pecfectly= sunshine recorder is a personal fav, and i think they use the children vocals to greatest effect on this cd. I have the triple lp edition and the artwork is amazing. overall better than there others IMO. Hi scores is bum ting tho ! |
||||||||
|

| |||||||||
|
|
see ya later sucks and so does that other one |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
you probably mean "je ne sais quoi" i like hi scores especially nlogax it's def. worth seeking out "a few old tunes" and "old tunes vol 2" on slsk |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Are they genuine though? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
that's the big question. at least some of the tracks definately are, and they're real crackers too, you can just tell they're real boc trouble is there's some dodgy versions going around with mis-labeled and obviously fake tracks |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
The ones i've heard from there are pretty dubious but forest moon is nice whatever really. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i love "hi scores", i found it a year ago marked down to $4.99 or something, w/the blue brail cover :0) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the june 9th video is great! love that ep |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the ep or the song? best song HAS to be kid for today mmm.... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i think their best album is Twoism. Sixtyniner and then Directine, played through a really good stereo system, are immacualte and almost ghostly tracks. Also up in the ranks for me are Turquoise Hexagon Sun, ROYGBIV, Dawn Chorus, Kid For Today, Everything You Do Is A Balloon, and I'm not positive if they're real or not, but Buckie High, Spectrum, Forest Moon and Mukinabaht are amazing songs from the demo bootleg. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Tough choice for me.....Hi scores is definately in my top 2 |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
mhtrtc is the king boc album. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
oh and in my listing I also forgot Rodox Video and Melissa Juice...two short but very ethereal songs. favorites. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
everything you do is a balloon, june 9th and nlogax are on this ep, that's why it's better than twoism and iabpoitc |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
IMO it is not theirr best but Everything You Do Is A Balloon is amazing. |
