Story behind BOC - Olson

1st a little intro:
One day i was watching a documentary on discovery about drug
testing on civilians in 1950-1960, in this period the CIA
took civilians from the streets to give them some drugs(the
victoms didnt know that they were a test object),.....
Then they talked about a person called Frank Olson,. he was
just a normal happy family man.
The story goes like this----» they put some lsd in his
contreaux, he went crazy because he didnt know what was
happening, this feeling lastet for days and finaly he jumped
out of a window and crashed on the street.
When i saw this i realised that the song Olson has something
to do with it, i desided to listen to the song.
When i was listening i had a strange feeling because the
"happy" piano song has a sudden ending, at that time i got
MEGA goosebumps.......
I quess you understand why i had this feeling.

I also did some research and found out that all this
experiments of the CIA were taken in Novia Scotia!!

The title Novia Scotia Robots explains a lot...!!
M9 = a name of the secret projects of this period!!
June 9th is also a date that is used in this project!!

Sorry for my bad english, but i quess u all understand what
im talking about

"Olson is the surname of a family we know."

1969:
Mentioning of Branch Davidians.
Track length is 4:19. The Waco Massacre occurred on April
19, 1993, or 4-19-93.
1969 was the year of the Manson Murders.

one probably shouldn't put too much into this - after all,
it's just music

good work, boc's music is just dripping with acid, religion,
and sexual refrences... speaking of which, I'm getting some
acid for the first time in over a year next week... I'll
hafta listen to lots of boc... w00t!

Thanx Nano ]: )

And the title of Eydiab, the first best song of Boc i have
ever heard has something to do with it,...
See it like this---» Everything you do is Air(inside the
balloon), and air is nothing, so Everything you do is
nothing,
Put this in the story from Olson and u understand

i think we might want to create an underground boc-militia
with the sole purpose of tracking down these jewels (not
*those* jewels, moron..)

I'll provide the chemical weapons if you got the gats!

And don't rule out tracking down *those* jewels as well...
this may be the only way to get the information we need out
of them ;)

most of BoC's track titles are influenced by The Incredible
String Band's. They had tracks like: Turquoise Blue, 1968,
Koeeaddi There, Whistle Tune, Dandelion Blues...
Boards of Canada always talk about them.

M9 is also the name of a motorway near where BoC live.
Around the time M9 was made alot of their music was made as
"tapes to listen to in the car, without caring about other
people getting to hear it..."

Not saying that Aesthetic's interpretation is wrong. Just
posing a different one. And yes, I also read Olson was the
surname of someone they knew.

Kaini Industries is a company that was set up in Canada on
the day I (marcus or michael I presume) was born, to create
employment for a settlement of Cree Indians.
