If it were BOC I’d have expected much more music to have been released on YouTube. Surprised whoever it was shut up shop like this. Bizarre.

I wasn't around for the ARG leading to Tomorrow's Harvest way back when, but my impression is that BoC knows they can't do anything quite like that again. I ...

There's something unnervingly captivating about this thread, and the uncertainty is corroding me. I wish whoever made these things would just identify themselves already.

Two things:

(1) Is anyone else getting a particularly sinister vibe from the Eleven Missing Tracks video? My mind goes to a bad place whenever I see a video with no provenance whatsoever with creepy visuals, and it really puts me on edge, wondering how it was put together and whatever happened to ...

I like austere covers with dreary colors:

Sometimes if you create music constantly it’s hard to see it objectively. It’s possible to create a large body of work and then to listen to your own music years after you’ve recorded it. When it’s been forgotten you get a new perspective. Tracks you liked at the time sound disappointing, ones you ...

I don't know if classical music is much to anyone's taste here, but somehow I get the feeling some of you might like this. It seems to give people a haunted vibe of nostalgia for times they never experienced. This composer is sometimes referred to as "the first minimalist."

Is "Remy" an acceptable girl's name in English, or would it be "Remi"? Both? Neither? This has been a pressing question for me.

For what it's worth, Wikipedia lists both men and women with the names Remy or Remi. It originally came from the Latin remex , "oarsman," which was a masculine noun. The ...

I'm not sure whether it will help anyone else in this thread, particularly because I consider myself a bit of a stranger here, but I try to remind myself that uncertain things remain indifferent to any of our attempts to impose certainty upon them.

Just rediscovered this hauntingly beautiful Macedonian song, "Zajdi, zajdi, jasno sonce," by Aleksandar Sarievski. To put it briefly, the lyrics observe in sadness how both the singer and the forest grow older, though only the forest grows back new leaves.

Tatsuro Yamashita - Sparkle (1982)

Everything's better when I listen to this, despite everything.

Caroline K (1957–2008): Animallattice (1987)

An algorithm recommended this artist to me a few years ago out of absolutely nowhere, and I'm still not sure what I was listening to that would have warranted the recommendation. This fan-made video, I think, is as unsettlingly vague as the music ...

Hello. I've listened to BoC intermittently since 2016 and for nearly as long have lurked around these forms, also intermittently. The new documentary, "This is Hexagon Sun," popped up in my YouTube recommendations recently and I figured I'd wander back into this distant musical hinterland. I have a ...
