I've gotten really into Mina the Hollower. It's one of my favorite new games I've played in a while. People are saying it's like Zelda: Link's Awakening meets Castlevania and Dark Souls, which is fairly apt, but I think it also feels a lot like a masterfully expanded version of what the NES/Gameboy ...

I wish they made some of the other artwork from inside the booklet available as posters. This would have been neat:

It's funny to look back at this thread that I started...certainly was polishing off bottles left and right back then.

Lots can change in 20 years.

This year will be 8 years sober for me. Needless to say I enjoyed this stuff a little too much.

Or they could pull a "The Tuss" and release things secretly under a different name.
Exactly what my mind went to was, "The Tuss"

It has probably already been mentioned. So apologies. I think it is possible we could see future releases under an alias. I think the flexi disc is a hint at that a little. Not saying we wont get something else released by "BoC" proper. Maybe older catalogue stuff. Something just tells me we will ...

It's possible they've had "finished" iterations of lots of this music for a decade or decades and have just waited for the right alignment of track iterations, references/hidden messages, album framework, and time in history. So by the time they put this out, it's got all of a rich text (the ...

Some of this has its origins in exploring if there was anything in common across all BOC tracks that "are track 2," or "are track 6," and so on, if that makes sense, since it's common for track 1 to be an intro track. I didn't dig too deep, but the answer overall seems to be "not really ...

When LP6 comes out we will do a 6x6

What I have attempted to accomplish here is pull five tracks from BoC’s five main LP releases that thematically build from the "ashes" of Inferno. Songs that show some lighthearted optimism and a more ominous side. I have tried to include a mixture of tracks without percussion of any kind and beat ...

A beautiful place out in Portland.

Only reinforcing my desire to return to the Pacific north west! It is absolutely amazing. I have been to Seattle before but, never Portland. As much as I love Seattle…Portland is ...

You are living in my holiday!

Have you been before or have plans to go?

Ah yes, Portland, Oregon. First time here.

A beautiful place out in Portland.

I actually have this one on vinyl. Can’t remember where I found it. It has been several years ago.

Do not own any official BoC tapes. So I had to snag this. Thanks for the heads up.

This the only official Boards of Canada cassette tape properly released!
[not including rare Japanese promos]



Precisely. I made some bootlegs for fun back in the day. Mixes of a bunch of their tracks spanning ...
