tough one...i coudn't decide what to vote for. i mean i
haven't heard them do anything but same stuff all over
again, so to think they can do something else is just
unimaginable :)

Previous sound for me.
Tracks like "Everything you do is a balloon", "Hi scores"
and "Aquarius" is what they're best at :)

I want a totally new sound, I mean ofcourse it will always
be BOC style, but a new sound something fresh!

too many artists play the easy card - repeat the winning
formula. and then they lose all respect they gained from
liking them in the 1st place. although boc have a very
original and distinctive sound i love, i hope their new
album sees them progressing their sound somewhat.

then there are bands like Plaid who have gone into a new
direction with Spokes, and people find it mediocre, doesn't
sound like Plaid etc.

exactly what i think hehehe
i wish geogaddi never came out, cuz it made me lost a lot of
respect i had for their music...it was bacically the same
thing as mhtrtc. they would really have to put out something
amazing to make me start appreciating their stuff again. i
kind of doubt tho, they care about what i have to say :)

personally i would like to see them make music on acid,
while on a bad trip - with 4/11/13 rhythms, distorted
screams, eerie melodies, and danceable techno tracks! it
would also be very cool if they had a monkey screaming in
one of the tracks because it's the year of the monkey! they
should also name one of the tracks "yeVaL ynohtnA" and use
random backwards speeches of him, distorted to make him
sound like George W Bush, since they like to make pointless
satanic references which keeps everyone fascinated! also,
they should try to remix Merzbow. and use kazoos, dammit!!!
kazoos rule!!! =D really i'd like to see them go
techno/dance and sing along, Fluke- or Underworld-style.
with children if they want to. oh and a last thing - they
should use real boards of canada to make music, like, sample
the sound of a surf board surfing on a canadian sea. or use
them as percussions, knocking two canadian boards one
against another.

oh, and by the way, i listened to a few tracks off Geogaddi
again the other day and i liked it.

i wish they'd come with a decent album like plaid finally
did

for some reason

I like boc, but I want them to change a bit, like autechre
does, autechre always sounds like autechre, but still they
always sound diferent.

boc should move from their till now so much used style

I like BOCs sound so I don't want them to change. I rely on
other artists like Ae and Aphex to come up with innovative
sounds.

Otherwise no-one will be able to truthfully say "That sounds
like BOC" anymore.

i like the ideology behind boc, so i am looking forward to
their next album, no matter if happy hardcore, deathmetal,
hip hop, or polka

"i like the ideology behind boc"

> can you precise? which ideology?


 

offline blowfield on 2004-01-22 06:49 [#01043936]
Points: 572 Status: Regular



i mean, i like the way they are making music, i think it is
coincidence why they sound like mhtrtc or geogaddi, they
could make jazz, in their way, and it would be marvellous
too, i think.

ok...
(i thought you meant they had a precise ideology with their
references to satan, children and branch davidians =))

by the way have you noticed?

the aphextwin.nu layout is back when you choose "previous
poll results"! no more broken-linked pictures on a black
background!! =)
