Superiority? You're the one stomping around calling people "lame". If anyone thinks they're superior it's YOU!
I just have a personal preference of how I'd like to first listen to this CD, because a lot of the memories that I associate with albums/EPs consist mainly of the first time I heard them, and thus it's important to me.
The week the ep comes out I'm goin' down to my local indie record shop (having heard nothing but Dayvan Cowboy and Skyliner) and picking up the white vinyl. I'll proceed to bus home, cancel all appointments and drop the needle; I'll sit on my leather loveseat, alone with the TCH. One record flip and 27 minutes later I'll sit in total contentment and reflect on all the emotions I felt. I may then listen to it again. Truly a sacred experience that I would only reserve for BoC (mabye Autechre as well).
Romanticization of the event is entirely intentional. This is what I did for The Campfire Headphase and it was amazing!
Under The Coke sign is fucking incredible. It reminds me of a mix between Corsair and Trails. It's over way to quick though, I've been listening on repeat. This is a serious contender for one of my favorite "short" Boc tracks.

Didn't mean to stomp, sorry. And I stopped feeling superior when I was around 28.

"Dayvan Cowboy" was already one of my favourite tracks from "TCH"! On " Trans Canadian Highway" their are 2 very good new tracks! They remind me of the early BoC: " Left Side Drive" and "Skyliner" TREMENDOUS...
after hearing HFTL the red moon makes me think they are going to rerelease something. after all Twoism came out a month after hi scores or the other way around, why not another release?

yeah i do like the clearer version of skyliner deffo more in it and sweeter. but have to listen to LSD a few more times again, on first listen i was well grabbed!
under teh coke sign at the start sounds like an old in flight advert or something.
its lovely.

they are both very nice but well yeah skyliner sounds a damn LOT better on 320kbps quality the mastering of this track is very rich which makes it sounds superb.. love both of them tbh

You can hear all the the details so much better. I'm hearing things in this track that I didn't pick up on the crappy version.
