blasphemy! although, spokes is... but it's not representative for the rest of their material |
||||||||
|

All the Plaid I heard just made me decide not to listen further. I didn't think it was as *boring* as BoC, though. Just less pleasant. |

Oh good news about the album, i'm looking forward to it all. Do we know whether this will be all new material? Or a collection of older material like Goegaddi. Titsworth? Surly you with a site as mindbendingly excellent as it is would know! |

Great news, and I hope it's better than Geogaddi. I bet it will. It's gonna be so damn ILLBIENT, baby! |

all the exclusive info i've heard about the new boc album is out of date now. i was told they'd release an EP last september and an album this past january. obviously neither happened (except for the single pressing they sent joyrex... email him about it!! ;) ). the only other thing i know is something archrival said he read in an interview (which could be his way of saying he knows something we don't, since there was no interview i know of), that they were taking it back to their old style (which doesn't mean "old recordings"), and then stuff that people like core and joyrex have said, that they're going for a FRESH sound (and absolutely no old recordings), which is a direct contradiction to what archie said. so really it's anyone's guess. |

If you dont like BoC, you have no soul....sorry |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
that or you know what truly soulful music is and can't be bothered with BoC |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i won't bother with it |
||||||||
|
|

"illbient" The use of this word should result in a ban/homicide. :P |
||||||||
|

autechre is the most boring act. they'r elike boc but dumb |
||||||||
|

I've been told it will be their most "fresh" material to date and will really surprise fans... I think they will raise the bar considerably with this upcoming release, which I would reckon is going to be Feb/March of next year (they usually announce 5-6 months ahead of time it seems). If the recent rumours of them going on an extensive live tour are true, perhaps this sound is more akin to a traditional band with electronic elements interwoven. That would be wonderful, IMO. |

thats what they all say nowadays.. but i hope you're right i wouldnt mind another mhtrtc tho.. |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
Well as long as they keep writing the truly emptionally engaging music then i'll buy it and most likely love it. |
||||||||
|

What was the name of the program that someone here had, that could record anything played by your computer, into MP3s? That music70 sample is sooo nice. I had it on my old HD.. anyone? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I'll remain open minded till I hear it, but I really hope they don't change so dramatically that it no longer is recognisable as them :/ |

geogaddi's my favorite release from them. it's sort of a bumpy ride from start to finish. there's lots of pleasant headfuckery, and most of the tracks have tons of layers to focus on. it's quite diverse as well. I can see the next one being quite a departure. I'm sure it'll still sound like boc though. |

paco: mail if yer still interested |

BoC is kinda boring, a few good tracks they have |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

i am happy about this news - but would it kill them to give us a bit MORE information? i already figured they'd release something new next year anyway. :S Geogaddi is superior to MHTRTC - it's more layered and thought-driven. i believe they will get better and better as time goes on. |

It's tempting, I'll admit that.... cheffe1980: sorry ;) |

i trust thet BoC will once again make a mindblowing album. those that say BoC (and autechre) are boring haven't LISTENED to them. |
||||||||

For me, BoC is the most pleasant music to listen to. I could pour gallons of that sweet aural honey into my brain pudding and my spongey gray matter would just keep slurping it up. It's like dissolving urea in water; it is practically infinitely soluable. I find BoC to be extremely organic in texture and sound for an electronic act which is a refreshing contrast to much of IDM which is often quite sterile, cold, and artificial. I fully understand why BoC are considered by some to be boring. They seem modest in their music production, tending not to concentrate on intricate sequencer trickery, and erratic meticulous drum programming. But I don't think that was ever their intention. This music is just extremely nice. The kind of stuff you can put on the stereo and just go "ahhh.. yeahhhh.." and nod your head. It is often so subtle and non-abrasive that it can be played in the background and totally ignored. But it is also quite rich, listened to with my eyes closed (preferably on a good set of headphones) and fully absorbed. This is why I love BoC and this is why their's is the music I listen to most regularly. and so, yes, i am eagerly awaiting any new Boards of Canada release. |

warm is not the same thing as organic... putting some fuzzy retro filters on your synths and writing pretty melodies does not make music organic; using live instruments does. BoC are great at what they do, btw. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i am not confusing warm with organic. I just meant that BoC sounds like something natural and not synthetic. I realize that technically organic means "live instruments." But i wasn't looking to discuss semantics. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
what about BoC's music sounds natural to you? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
all of it. lol ok. i guess to further illustrate my opinion for ya's: To me, BoC's music sounds like it was made by a warm blooded animal. It has soul and color. In my head, it produces images of nature; Sunlight breaking through gaps between the leaves of trees; Forests changing color and shedding their foliage; Little streams pouring over mossy rocks and collecting in tiny pools to be gently warmed by happy mr. sun. I guess this is what i love about it. The fact that i know that it was made using electronic equipment and computers but it doesn't sound so mechanical and antiseptic. when i listen to Autechre, for example, while their music has soul, it always seems very synthetic and artificial to me. That's cool, i like it, but it's kinda like, i'd rather cuddle with BoC's fuzzy kitty than Autechre's pointy robo-bug. know what i'm saying G? |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
absolutely. i envision nature when listening also. |

maybe all the squealing kiddies... |
