Funny you say that, because when I was first getting into them in highschool I would visualize wooden boards when I heard their name. I like your concept, returning to nature/home in two places simultaneously…

Nowadays, in addition to the prevailing themes, I like to think of it as slang for a ...

Last Halloween I put out an album of sampler music, but I forgot to put it up on here. Enjoy, homies!

LOATHELESS


Next album is currently in the works

Until then these new OPN tracks really are doing something for me to fill the void. At times almost remind me of Secede in their style of sound collage, while all emotionally rooted in OPN's earlier stuff, yet way more refined, like he's utilizing his skillset from the years of making movie scores ...

The trax are sounding nice thus far, but I’m still gonna need that new BoC!

Lifeworld seems to be the belter of these first 4 pieces and I’m already losing interest. It has a lot going on, but I feel like it’s missing the sense of development that the R+7 hits had — without that feeling of going on ...

Yeah, wow, I never noticed the similarity either. And they’re two of my all time favorite tracks…

Pretty amazing to hear the Julie and Candy drums isolated. What a groove. I do find it somewhat remarkable that the AI can do such a good job of deciphering what the “drums” even are — J&C always struck me as a pretty surrealistic piece of music where each sound is so alien yet so organic

Thanks for the bump what a beautiful song. Do you happen to know how he prepared those machine heads so that its back in tune when twisted back? (those two are pointing perpendicular from the others)
I’ve heard people call them ‘hipshot tuners’ or ‘detuners’:

Michael Manring utilizes them ...

Set sail towards Winspit

Not a controversial boc opinion but I don't want to create a new thread. I was reading "The Last secret of Pop" interview ( here ), and a line goes:

Mike is Michael Sandison, 34 years old, father of a one year old daughter. Visibly tired. Suffers sleeplessness and depression.

Is this a ...

Dreams... and false alarms...

It's pretty stunning to hear these potential origins of my favorite BoC sample all these years later... I too had assumed it was either just the brothers' Akai-ized acoustic jamming, or a Kainai Nation field recording...

Props to Zoso & 22 for your good ears & sample spotting stamina!

Thanks everyone for your kind words! It is such a pleasure to know the path to this peaceful meadow of the internet where everyone is listening for the subtle sounds... I appreciate all of your support – thank you so very much for ...

Ah, just missed the livestream! Looking forward to enjoying the playback this evening...

pic (peter iain campbell) told us to sit tight. imo, he is just as good of a source as MDG

That might be the only thing that makes me believe. Even though it was said last year.

The other signs aren't looking so good. Still, I want to believe that there is something right around the bend ...

The way that it's riffing on the one chord progression except for the intro and outro does make it sound a bit like a jam of sorts but I dunno, there's too many interlocking parts for it to really be a jam, I don't know. I'm really thinking closing credits of a film, and its position toward the ...

My heart goes out to all those that have had friends/family/themselves affected by the virus thus far. I've been keeping some tabs on this thread here & there and I hope that any Twoism users who personally contracted the virus are continuing along the road to a full recovery. My family & friends ...

When it comes to resolving sleep issues, exercise is definitely one of the first thing that comes to my mind -- do you have any sort of exercise routine in your life? On nights where I have trouble sleeping I often feel like it's related to not having used up enough energy during the daytime to feel ...

Thanks for posting, Mexi!

The above video is a little glimpse into last year's reunion in Canada. We're heading out once more in a few weeks, but with live visuals & an 8-channel speaker system in a proper hall. For anyone out in big ol' Alberta...
