Off the top of my head; Doves apparently tried to get BoC to tour with them, Radiohead were full of BoC (along with other Warp artists) c. Kid A, Beck is obviously a fan...

You're completely right!! Dandelion Gum has a few beautifully produced vignettes that are pure BOC.

I would assume that whomever produces the tracks for her album, just found this song them self and then made her sing over it. i doubt she is actually a fan of boc.
