Boards Of Canada have always talked about a respect for Stevie Wonder's music.

In one of their untitled tracks at all Tomorrow's Parties, listen to this sample at [00:36].

In an episode of The Cosby Show where Stevie Wonder guest starred, he used the same sample (at about [03:18]).

for the longest time ive heard a voice midway through sixtyten. so i looked it up on boc pages to see what others thought, and it seems that nobody is quite sure


to me, it sounds like the voice is saying. Get Off Of Me.


since what i just posted probably isnt new to anyone.

here is something maybe not everyone has noticed
if you listen to the beginning of melissa juice. you can hear the opening notes being played at a really really low volume, just before the song begins at normal tone.

When I first heard Sixtyten, I thought that sample that is said to be either "It's alright" or "You know a way" was actually saying "hey, yo wait".

just so we're on the same page. even though i dont think your referring to my post, just the song sixtyten

the sample i am referring to can only be heard once or maybe twice in the entire song, its not one of the main samples that most people discuss..

the main samples in the song, to me. sound like.
"Watch It." "Go."

I always thought the sample after the heavy bass part in Sixtyten (See 02:54) was saying "Charlie" if that's one of the samples you guys are referring to.

The Sixtyten sample is covered here and may surprise. Kudos to DDRPwnerer, no way I'd have caught that!

the sample i am referring to to is at the 2 minute mark, and again at 3:29

the sample you referred to, i've never noticed before until now.

Opening the Mouth (Geogaddi)

Still haven't figured it out, but I am almost certain that it contains a female vocal sample. I would really like to know what she's saying. The sample is obviously distorted, but even after reversing the audio and altering such elements as pitch/speed/etc, i still have had no luck.

Anyone else notice it?

Yeah, I could've researched a bit more, but I guess I just wanted to participate in this thread.

Apologies all around!

Just did a HUGE article on "1969" for my blog. Sweeped over the production guide to the song. Definitely an eargasm. :) http://2020k.wordpress.com/2011/05/01/f ... nada-1969/

In The Beach At Redpoint, I was listening to it the other day in my truck, when I noticed this hi-hat/snare sound that fades in, stays there for a while, and fades out, playing very fast.



It first comes in at 01:23, then gets quieter around 01:50. I had never noticed it before.

It's weird, I saw that cosby episode like a month ago. Never would have connected the two. See... even when you find a BoC samplesource, you probably wouldn't even notice it.
