While Im in the middle of a phone call talking to my councellor about my music addiction, these are the cds I got today:
Manitoba: Start Breaking My Heart Squarepusher: Maximum Priest
If any of you have that Manitoba cd, what's that child sing at the end of Happy Ending? "You just have to get one"? I don't know. Its so halarious.
By the way, what's with all these Canadian artists going really 'kiddie'? It's really weird and Im getting scared. Boards of Canada naming songs after kids and kid activities...now Manitoba.
Good stuff.

Well, Canadian inspired...or something to do with Canada.
Is Manitoba Canadian?
Where are BoC from and where are they located?

Freeworm also sounds Canadian...and IS a Canadian I think....but he doesn't base his music around kids.

yeah, they're from Scotland, or Ireland or something... the British Isles anyways... but they did live in Canada for a time... and were obviously inspired by the national film boards of canada...

No kidding Funkmaster. BoC so resembles Canada and the feeling of Canada its sickening. The sound of BoC is so 80s too...like I can go back to Expo 86 or something in my mind even though I don't think I went...

Ever SEE one of the National Film Boards of Canada films?
They have this eerie feel, really retro... used to watch nature films in school. They had this somber, melancholy, MAGICAL feel... like BOC.

I just remembered I used to watch Natioinal Film Board of Canada cartoons. Some have really scared me but here are some I really hope the rest of you Canadians can remember! Would love to reminise:
(These are past old 80s cartoons from NFB of C)
That logger guy. Someone sang and this logger was was on a log going down this stream and other rivers. went over a water fall...tried his best to keep on top. had a girl on with him I think. Animation was pretty crude but good. It was a short...like a music video for the song.
A little boy and girl really loved speghetti and this old lady named Straganona came over with a magic pot to make speghetti with and every time she'd say "Straganon says start eating". at the end the little boy and girl, after having watched her and her magic, made the pot make speghetti for them using the right command. Well the pot kept making speghetti over and over and over till it flooded the town. Straganona got back and saw what had happened went to the house clearing away the speghetti with her magic. she went up to them and sad "Straganona says start eating"
A chinese one where some guy falls in a well...animation was really harsh. can't remember much of it.
Anyone remember any of those?

Yeah, I loved that log driver guy... I remember that.
Those little films have this odd feel... can't explain it. The crudeness is so endearing or something.

Boards of Canada are from Scotland you ignorant cunts. Jesus, buy a fuckin map will ye? Ireland or Scotland or somethin?? gimme a fuckin break. fuckin twats.
Naw seriously now, they are based in Ediburgh. They are teuchters from the Highlands initially. Because they are based in Edinburgh, I reckon they are proper sacs. Just a city rivalry thing heh heh. :D
