Originally a cassette release, that was later burnt to a handful of CD's seems to be the case.
The original Boc Maxima DAT was used to produce some cassettes originally in 1996 and then was used to produce CDs several years later, in 1998 or 1999. There were only a handful of CDs produced (in the ...

So there's a CD rip now?
What was the cassette rip that SamaAmDJ shared back last March?
Was this release originally a cassette, or tape, or both?

I'm confused! But this is still amazing news, obviously.

Exactly.
Then they chill out, drink some fight milk and kill a load of rats with a big baseball bat.

But on the other hand, I kind of don't want blind-eyed demon children on my wall, you know? They're not even *my* kids.

I might work on some creepy demon-eyed artwork starring my own daughter. I guess that would be ok?

On the other hand I do have a really nice photo of her in front of one of the ...

Bits of paper and old photos, stuck to a cork-board, all joined together with bits of string.
Obviously.

Very nice!
I ordered his book recently, off the back of the BoC collaborations. Looking forward to gazing at that.

mp3s are the future dude! Own your music files and be dependent on nobody.

Yo dudes, enjoy.

I think some people could tell the difference.
I probably couldn't though. Too much horrible tinnitus.

I hope it's real, maybe we'll get the rest of the album soon.
Incredible stuff happening this year.

The real 6th album is the friends we made along the way...

Calling Christianity barbaric is hilarious.

Christianity is probably the sole reason why we have any freedom or peace anywhere on earth.

The Bible, churches, perversions and corruption of power are what caused atrocities throughout history. Not the fucking teachings of Christ.

It's not that ...

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]

Out of curiosity for anyone who already received their tape, do you know what formulation the tapes ...

has anyone managed to find the introduction/chant that played before the album yet?

I have a video of it sent my a fellow member, but the audio of the chant is next to impossible to make out and it didn't record the whole thing.

I'm sure there is a better recording out there... anyone?

Here's ...

Yup, you caught that as well? On my very first listen (during the YouTube premiere) I noticed that the Introit notes are a palindrome. But I'm a sucker for the backwards stuff.

I imagine that melody was made using an up-down arpeggiator, so any combination of notes put into that would be a ...

I love a good tape machine, but I would avoid anything new like that (though it does look nice). There's only one factory/design of cassette mechanism and they're all a bit cheap and rubbish. I certainly wouldn't pay much for a new one.
Get a vintage deck if you can, there are always people throwing ...

Also, it's possible to grab the merch without making a purchase!

They did get it right with how they went about the Listening Party invites. I was surprised. They completely circumvented scalpers/casuals and filled those rooms as properly as they could have.

I totally agree, but weirdly there were a fair few empty seats near where I was in the London session ...

It's just a few keyrings, stickers and posters.
They're not chopping down the Amazon for these, I presume.
