I was listening to "founded" this morning on my drive to work and have to say this might be one of my top 5 favorite tracks ever. I say this because every time I listen to it, I get chills. The fact that it is so short also adds to its appeal.

Founded is my favorite Plaid track. It's one I play ...

Haha that's incredible

10/10, I think this is BoC at their best. I think I remember reading an interview in which they described this track as a cacophony of flute samples bounced back and forth between tape recorders. If that isn't cool enough, the track has some of the best ...

I had a bit of a jaw-drop moment when I listened to Poppy Seed for the first time and heard the same sample from 1969, I assume that's what you're referring to. Two really great tracks.

Nice, I've heard a few good interludes on NPR: Radiohead, Grizzly Bear, Four Tet, Aphex Twin, Ulrich Schnauss, can't remember if I've ever heard BoC on there.

sounds interesting, I'd love a link. Learning the hard way is what I want. I started reading a bit of Programming Principles and Practice by Stroustrup today, doing a few exercises. Its quite in-depth without getting to confusing, though the first few chapters where really really basic. I hope it ...

I've been experimenting lately with modern programmable-pipeline graphics methods. Below are some screenshots of the canonical Mandelbrot fractal rendered from software I've written. For those that don't know, the Mandelbrot fractal is a two-dimensional set in the complex plane represented by this ...

I love Uviol! What do you hear in it that makes you think of Oversteps? I can't quite make the connection.

I don't know all the details, but I think the act forces some businesses to spend more on healthcare benefits for employees. This hurts some small businesses that don't make a lot of profit because it makes employees more expensive, and some of those businesses will have to let go of employees just ...

Really good stuff, sounds like Exai with less focus and restraint.

tac Lacora: Exai + Gantz Graf
M39 Diffain: Exai + Untilted
Osla for n: Exai + Confield

I wish there was more material, imagine getting an 8 track EP/mini album of discarded Exai ideas. Definitely not complaining though.

Still ...

What do you know, released early two days later. This EP is fucking awesome.

45 second previews of the tracks have surfaced, they sound pretty wicked.

where?

Someone posted a link on WATMM to some Japanese record store which had made the previews available. Unfortunately the store did so without authorization, so they have since been taken down.

I hope Warp releases ...

the release date was 2013/03/04

Not only that, but the columns in binary sum to 11234, 11 being the album number and 234 being the catalogue number (WARP234). Here's a different spreadsheet .

I'm finally getting into Plaid I think. I went through Rest Proof Clockwork and Double Figure a few years ago, I got Scintilli when it was released, I watched Tekkon Kinkreet, etc, etc. I could tell Plaid had some seriously good ideas but I couldn't quite get into a lot of the music.

Recently I ...

If I had to speculate, I'd say it's just BoC fans looking for similar music. How about a link to the topic you're concerned about? Thanks!

I'm really digging this too. I liked Lone best when he was doing Kids In Tracksuits and Lemurian stuff, and I kind of lost interest at Emerald Fantasy Tracks, but for some reason I'm really into this. 1:04 - 1:36 is too lush.
