Reviews say there/he/she (doesn't know) is influenced by Boards of Canada. Can you hear BOC's style in Mum's music?

it's like glitchy ambient stuff, kind of like BoC i guess.
i started off with FWANO and it's too good, their earlier LP doesn't have as much singing, which disappointed me. but it's all really very good. their remix album is awesome, got 2 mad µ-Ziq mixes.

i think they have their own unique style, although it's fair to say that there's a bit of BOC influence in their music, but it's two different sounds in my opinion. both great in their own way.

everyone is influenced by eachother to some degree from completely unnoticable to obvious and it can be conscious or unconsious, and some see more boards in this band than in that band, or more pink floyd in this group or that group so it's often fairly subjective. i can see similarities between boc and mum, but they feel completely different. i think the people that make these comparisons, like saying sigur ros is biting radiohead (lol) don't actually feel the music, but listen to it with inhibitions about really getting into the emotional/spiritual experience of the undercurrents, found in between the notes, so to speak.
Both full length albums by mum are wonderful and worth the money.

in lesser words, but to in fact make more, superficial is how i would describe the comparisons.

their first lp, "yesterday was dramatic, today is ok" is far (and i mean FAR) better that "finally we are no one"
