You can't send a letter to their studio or whatever. That would be the only way to actually communicate with them. They don't post anything on their facebook, twitter, etc. Warp knows just about as much as us unless they are hiding something, so you can't really communicate with Warp about it either.
Maybe if you searched through all the Pentland Hills you'd find the Hexagon Studio and you could ask them in person.

Are Hipsters the problem.
OK, I'm being selfish and I know I am. I didn't realise that BoC had become popular with the current "Hipster" trend. I can't help feeling a little resentful of this, as I hate the idea that BoC may have become more popular just because a bunch of fashion victims have been told they must like BoC.
This is both a cynical and selfish attitude (and my evidence for this is somewhat shabby) I know, everyone should be allowed to enjoy BoC regardless of how they found them, but it still leaves a bit of a sour taste in my mouth.
I can't help wondering if the album delay is because the Brothers feel a little of that same resentment - given their propensity for avoiding the limelight.
Flame me, I probably deserve it.

Re: Are Hipsters the problem.
'Hipsters' as a descriptive trend goes back to the late 90's. And if anything the Boards becoming more popular is their own doing, given that The Campfire Headphase was accompanied by a single and numerous press interviews. Plus the album itself is a bit more accessible to a mainstream audience (in relative terms).Will wrote:OK, I'm being selfish and I know I am.

No need for flames, just context.

Seen on WATTM:
"Twoism.org almost ruined BoC for me. Before going to that forum, I never associated the music with wimpy dudes and Peter Pan syndrome."
Hilarious
