>>130066323I pre-ordered the red vinyl, though I don’t have a particularly impressive vinyl setup. Just a simple setup I listen to records on Fridays when I work from home. But I just had to have it; I suppose I’ll probably download it as well when the day comes. So excited for this. I haven’t been able to get Tape 05 out of my head for days.
>>130066317So the album's called "Inferno"? Shitty name desu.
Never going to listen to this slop because OP is spamming it shamelessly
130066426 man mu really is the worst board on 4chan now. zoomer central
>>130066426Quick, someone inform Boards of Canada that this anon will never listen to their new album!! Perhaps they'll contact 4chan and urge the mods to do something about the ""spam""
>>130066426kek newfag detected
I can honestly say not a day has gone by where I haven’t thought of Boards of Canada at least once, since I was perhaps 12 years old. They sparked a fascination with antennas, radio waves, and signals that lead me after many years to a career in RF Engineering.
As a satanist I distance myself from the author's Reddit belief.
I’m gonna listen to this album when it’s released
>>130066541I’m gonna release when this album cums
>>130066426It is a general that stays up for several days. How in the fuck is that spamming, you fucking retard? All news pertaining the new album is all contained in these generals. Just shut the fuck up.
>>130066426Poor Newfag has never seen a general that isn't a goonfest l. Peak /mu/ would have given you a fit bitchboi
>>130066323Fuck I might have to get the CD now too, that looks nice.
Deep Time https://vocaroo.com/1mY2eZLIKJ4v
>>130066750It do but the only CD player I have now is in my manual transmission European shitbox.
>>130066768I bet a night drive to this would be fucking based, or just a short drive to a nice nature spot nearby and just chill in the car.I drive a lot for my job and have a shit ton of CDs as a result
>>130066761fuck is this??
>>130066761>>130066890That's 1Ga Kopelat by Piotr Kanabus. Decidedly not Deep Time.
>>130066362Feeling the exact same way, anon>>130066410Yes, it's called Inferno. >>130066768>>130066797Why not just use your phone to play the album in your car?
mmmm whatchu saaaaaay
>>130066929I will be using my phone to play it in my car, personal. I caint justify the cost of the red vinyl AND a CD. I’m going to assume the vinyl comes with a digital download, and I do have Apple Music.
>>130066514yo I know peggys cove when I see it, fellow scotian
>>130066929Cos I have a perfectly good CD player in my car and it saves faffing with Bluetooth or aux or whatever the fuck
>>130067063Coupla Nova Scotia Robots in here. Imagine if they played the bluffs.
>>130066973>>130067105And on that note, would yous say BOC has some good tracks for driving? If so, can yous name a couple? I'm curious. I'm thinking of creating a BOC driving playlist, maybe one for when it's sunny and day and one for when it's nighttime.
>>130067160Lots of great driving music on Campfire Headphase in the daytime
>>130066312Mukhinabaht & Staircase Whip
fragile schizo samefag thread
>>130067160>>130067215Yeah pretty much the entirety of The Campfire Headphase, it's almost like it was made witth that in mind. Dayvan Cowboy and Satellite Anthem Icarus just to name two.
>>130066426dumbass
Not liking the new album cover might actually mean you're a pleb. Sorry anon(s).
If you like every single song on an album, does that mean that album is a 10/10 for you?
>>130066312Sequoiahttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s3Q1B3cyo0A
>>130066309God I hate being a vinyl collector while also being a latin american and broke as fuck
>>130066309i boughted it. Looking forward to that booklet
>>1300681689/10 or 9.5/10, even if you like all the songs there might be parts of a song that you don't completely like or think that some songs might repeat a little too much
>>130066226 Leak when
>>130066309>>130068497That limited red is like $40, how broke can you be fag, thats pennies. Id buy it bc it looks nice but i dont even care about BOC, may do it anyway.
more like boreds of canada
So i listened to "tape 05" you brainless homos hyped for this bland slop?
>>130068887>That limited red is like $40That + shipping + import taxes is like two whole weeks worth of groceries over here motherfucker
>>130068942Where are you from in SA? I refuse to believe places like Brazil, Argentina, Chile, and Uruguay don't have record stores with these kind of records there.
>>130068923BBBOOORRREEE!BBBOOORRREEE!BBBOOORRREEE!
>>130068962Brazil2 of my 3 local record stores are filled with boomer shit and the other one is metal focused An electronic fan can't have shit around these parts
>>130068998is amon tobin popular there or is even he niche?
>>130069063One, I kid you not, only ONE of his albums got manufactured over here
this is extremely good news and i am very xcited i didn't even know new musics was in the works
>>130068962>uruguaykek, Uruguay has nothing, most barebones country on Earth. Argentina I'm not sure. Santiago in Chile probably has a couple stores that would get this sort of stuff but add in their sales margin and it's not worth it for people savvy enough to be browsing this thread. More suited for a boomer who doesn't know how to pirate things or use Discogs>>130068942Yeah this stuff is a pipedream for us. I live in the south of Chile and whatever, at least we have bombass landscapes to listen to the new album in
>>130069188Tard.>>130068932Genius
>>130069239>at least we have bombass landscapes to listen to the new album inCope
>>130066309Limited to 100 000 copies is still limited i guess
>>130066312Trapped
>>130069275
>largest fan communities for band/artist/style happen to be on Reddit>therefore it's Reddit I have bad news for you...
>>130069608Redditors of canada
>>130066426Reported
>>130069510ah... now its perfect
>infernoLaaaaaaaame. Bet its church le bad shit, man im so done with those shitty legacy electronic acts.
>>130069779party pooper :3no joy no whimsy, death at age 50 from lack of fun
>>130069779Judging by the mention of "an expanded role for speech soundbites", it's probably going to be an album full of David Koresh sermons.
>>130069779Tard
what is this kpop?
>>130069779its not church le bad, its cults AND churchs le bad
>>130069978Essentially, yesThink Girl's Generation, 2NE1, SHINee, real gangster shit
>>130066312forest moon, no question for me
>>130066312The first track that feels like the big bang of BOC choons
>>130066226did beatty do the art? saw he posted the video earlier but it wasn't clear his involvement
The big 3 are Aphex Twin, Autechre, BOC (the list goes on)>thinking Squarepusher belongs anywhere in the conversation
>>130070067Ultravisitor and Hello Everything are better than anything Aphex has ever done.
>>130070053duffy is from '89 and the leaked bit shows it already had that signature BOC sound. I can't believe one disgruntled/finanically hard up family or friend hasn't leaked da ting
>>130070067the big 3 redditors
If I had their old shit I would leak it to spite them for being proto-redditors
Reddit derangement syndrome
>>130068055It’s pretty funny to see fans with no artistic vision complain when [new thing] isn’t just a variation of what came before.
>>130070130>for being proto-redditorswhat reddit thing did they do before reddit?
>>130070509Sean Autechre confirmed they're from the future. They traveled back and knowingly willed reddit into existence through quirky sampling.
>>130070533isnt that a paradox. cause like, time travel is paradoxical?
>>130070429yeah I've seen of the fan edits. Dumb as rocks the lot of them.
>>130070429That's what I wanted to say. These mediocre fixes look like crap with zero composition. I'm not an expert, but it looks bad
It's like you had a shitty dream as a kid about going to your grandma's village to pick mushrooms, and then suddenly remembering that bullshit 20 years later. Nice cover
>>130066157Being a redditor definitely is a personality. Are you retarded or what. Also, currently outside waging enjoying the beautiful weather. Does that count as touching grass? >>130066058I am
The only thing I have seen be in so many other people's collections in Bandcamp are famous video game soundtracks. Even semi mainstream acts haven't come close. I was thinking the buzz wasn't the same with this compared to TH, but this album is going to chart if this is any indication
>>130071047BOC are pretty much THE reddit duo
>>130071102Fuck, that sucks. I never really cared more about them than the music so i never got into their persona or puzzle solving. This time when i got their new track recommended. I watched like 2 videos about them. A mini interview on bbc radio and the vhs tape side by side with the new track. Unironically, the next videos that got me recommended were one troon having a channel kinds dedicated to them trying to solve their „puzzle“ embodying what basically is reddit called nora. And the other one literally is a post op troon reviewing electronic music and a huge fan of BoC. I should have know then. I guess i like their music too much so i might just have to give a fuck. I also really want the vinyl. Guess i have to give in this time.
>>130071102shut your cunt
>>130071097>I was thinking the buzz wasn't the same with this compared to TH, but this album is going to chart if this is any indicationTH was already at 7 in the UK and 13 in the USA. Depending on how strategically they timed it around other releases, number 1 in the UK is honestly also possible now.
>>130070429Putting a cartoonish gigantic logo on your cover means having artistic vision?
>>130071223yes, the original still looks (which is great anyways) better than any of the shit edits i have seen posted.
The lack of reddit mentions in this BOC general is quite concerningPlease keep acknowledging the Reddit relevancy to BOC music, thank you
>>130071336You Could Feel The Upvotes
>>130071149nigga stop yapping and get their music4chan and reddit are pretty similar at the end of the day
>>130071375But i rather call someone a troon than an incel so i guess we are not that similar…ordered the vinyl anyways though. Thinking about doing a bonfire with my friends, put some sausages on the grill, get shitfaced and coked out and listen to it over speakers put up, which sounds quite redditish, so maybe we do have some similarities.>t kraut
>>130071401im clearly not the target of your trolling cause I dont understand who are you making fun of
>>130071401>rather call someone a troon than an incelwhy not both? :)
>>130071401coke and BoC seems like a very anxiety inducing mix herranon
https://youtu.be/u6gCmQ1dxek?t=967
>>130071556this doesnt happentake your medication
>>130066317shitty stranger things looking inner sleeve
>>130068497slave mentality
>>130066226Am I the only one who thinks this cover looks terrible? It looks like something you would make in your high school graphic design class. Why is the band name so enormous? It's half the image.
the limited red vinyl is no longer limited. F to the poor bastards who will eat ice soup for rest of the month.
>>130071575tourist
>>130071678yes, no one else has made negative statements about it.>>130071689I've only seen it referred to as the deluxe edition, was it displayed as limited yesterday?
>>130071708yes it was still limited few hours ago
>>130071708I knew it. I'm so idiosyncratic.
>>130071719ah fair enough. I'm fine with that desu,with a band this likely to have a healthy amount of physical sales there shouldn't be any artificial scarcity shit. Scalpers rekt
>>130066323Already snagged the red but going to cop one of these at my local shop when the time comes>>130071653Incredibly weak inner sleeve picture.
>>130071300I wouldn't mind a big logo but not that big, it's unnecessary and just bad design. It's clearly a flashy marketing strategy to have shelf presence after 13 years of disappearance.
>>130072039It's genuinely good design befitting the likely subject matter of the album
damn is this album really going to be another gimmicky 'narrative-driven' drivel like tommorow's harvest? and on top of it add some more apocalyptic spooks and religious cults filled with wackos wankery? art will never ever change anything in society and the world, man. just put out some banger tunes and stop with this silly stuff. hopefully the tunes will be cool at least but i won't hold my breath
this album has to be good because I spent $75 on the deluxe edition
I thought they were done making music. Shit I came out of /mu/ retirement for this
>>130068769I think you're right. I like/love every song on MHTRTC, but sometimes I still think some songs go on for too long. I'm downgrading my rating from a 10 to a 9.5. I honestly don't think I even have a 10/10 record if those are the criteria to go by.
>>130072097They're obsessed with the Branch Davidians.
>>130071689>>130071719Thanks for the heads up, gonna save these images and file a claim with my bank after I receive it and get it for free.
>>130068942Almost unfathomable for me to believe that you guys don't have a single national record store that can get most records. You guys have a population well over 200m, and are in the top 10 biggest economies in the world. Now, I know that doesn't mean you guys are rich, but still, I expect at least the whiter southern areas to have a record store. >>130069239>Uruguay has nothingI always have it in my mind that Uruguay is basically a European nation in SA.
>>130071719Pre order so big can't call it limited anymore kek
>>130072337>I always have it in my mind that Uruguay is basically a European nation in SA.Rural france is also "european nation"
>>130072306for false advertising?
>>130072451yup, if the edition is wildly large then i may contact a lawyer about putting a class action lawsuit together.
Scalpers are scum so i don't care if it's not limited anymore. I just want to stare at the red vinyls
>>130072480Fucking kek retards gonna retard
>>130072480For fucking 50 bucks? Really? Who is gonna take you seriously? The phone talk to the lawyer costs more than that
>>130072495it's about the principle, really. also if the case is filed in the right jurisdiction it'll be a slam dunk. the negative press alone will make it so that warp will want to settle quickly. >SATAN WORSHIPPING BAND RIPS OFF FANSnot a good look tbqh.
>>130072504Every physical pressing inherently has a limitation, and you can just use the regular return policy anyway. A completely hopeless waste of money, reddit faggot.
>>130070429That looks way better
>>130072658if you're a dumb cunt maybe
>>130072623My son, you don't need to sign your posts here
>>130072097>add some more apocalyptic spooks and religious cults filled with wackos wankery?This is exactly what makes them unique and why I like them. They have a lot of rabbit holes to go down and as someone who grew up in the shadow of a cult and watched a lot of public TV as a kid BoC always hits a special spot. >>130072120Yeah, the shipping was absurd. The record price for the special edition is fair, but I also paid like 18 bucks for shipping and I live in the US.
I don't know if the Inferno teaser is the Introit track, but it'd be a good intro to the album, I love how urgent it sounds
>>130072980I think the teaser is, in fact, Introit.Tape 05 is "Father and Son," maybe?I think we've yet to hear the single.
>>130071336/mu/ is so shit these days that you have a catalogue full of Sabrina Carpenter, kpop and other disastrously terrible dogshit, to sit around in a BoC thread and spam that its "reddit" when this general is probably legitimately the only interesting thing that has happened on /mu/ this year is so faggoty that I can't even bother with a better insult, kill yourself now, kill yourself today.
I would be so happy if "Spiro" somehow leaked
As a Redditor, I will use all my legal rights to hold Warp Records accountable for their misleading sales promises made at the expense of a Reddit-favorite music act.*holds up spork*
>>130073041/mu/ died when sharethreads diednow its just hiphop gossip and jacking off to pop stars
>>130073085upvoted
>>130069239>>130068497I found 3 stores in Chile and 1 in Uruguay. 0 in Argentina and Brazil. Do you guys know any of these stores?https://warp.net/stockists
>>130071336Why is BOC out of all bands ”Reddit music”? I thought being a redditor was about liking superhero cartoons, video games and other childish crap. I don’t know what those people listen to but why would some weird experimental electronic music be their primary choice?
>>130073235Because he's a terminally bored shitposter trying to start shit all the time
