Went to multiple records stores in Montreal, including the biggest independent one (33 Tours, which had a small set for Record Store Day), and asked the guys if they saw the BoC satellite, but none of them had any idea about it.
Oh well... Canada's off the map of Boards of CANADA, it seems :p

Keep up the lurking, out there, chaps! :)

And thanks a lot, especially to Krs for confirming this is real. You made my day, man!

OK, so assuming this is legit (it's more fun that way), where do we think the other copies will turn up? I don't suppose Warp would distribute them all at once as that wouldn't exactly build the drama. If this is the only copy in the States, as the store said, where will the rest show up??

London? Edinburgh? Berlin? Tokyo? Sydney?

Has there been any audio file uploaded besides the YouTube video?
I hadn't seen a link anywhere.

Undoubtedly London. Strong chance of Edinburgh. It's interesting that the first one arrived in the States? mixing it up a bit.

That's what I was thinking. They obviously favor Europe...

and maybe there are no 5 other records and the missing parts will be transmitted elsewhere, twitter, youtube etc, or they will release one every week from now till then which would give us around 5 weeks taking us up to early June, 6.06.13 perhaps, the 7th release been the album itself of course.

we should make a new thread with a more organized method for searching for the remaining records. make a list of all the major record stores in some of the suspected cities, and make little check marks next to them to keep track of if and when they've been checked, or something.

i would make it, but im in the states and i wouldn't be able to update a thread in the wee hours of the morning (when itd be normal hours in the rest of the world)

Anyone else see the search for the other records heading in this direction?

In the meantime...
