Be on the lookout for different albums/tracks/lengths/content as everything is released. There may be several different versions exclusive to different sources/locations. The LDLP may be a unique legnth/content. Same with this Live Trans. The 6 codes/times/album drop locations may be unique albums. The pre-orders may differ too, even differences in downloadable tracks!
Please keep your eyes open!
My Bleep MP3 DL of RFTD = 4:47
My reserva DL of RFTD = 5:18
I'd highly suggest record (but please don't leak) this full live trans. as it may be unique/special content/play time that will only be offered this time.
I'd also highly suggest joining everybody on the live listening, you will still keep your original release date plans. You will still enjoy it- the epic trans. won't ruin anything. Be positive for both.
If you MUST not listen, may I beg you all to (at the very least) to have 1 boardsofcanada.com tab open with the volume off? We should want to set record attendance! Even if it crashes the server! We should make a footprint to encourage the powers that be to take BOC more seriously and create more opportunities. Pre-oder-platinum guys!
Side note, please, please
everybody,
don't leak, post, share ANYTHING for at LEAST 3 weeks after release date! Not even the 3 tracks from LDLP. Ensure that the ony place to acquire new material is through BOC or sales alone.
Please do everything you can do to encourage sales for BOC/Warp.
If not to make BOC rich, do it to impress the powers that be, the guardians of doorways to greater future opportunities! They are watching.
So, stand up and be counted at the live trans, look for alternate versions, record everything, post/share nothing for 3 weeks after ORD. Let BOC share/leak, take the rest down.
Just my 2c. First time joining/posting. BOC changed my life 2003. Heard about TH 27th 4 AM in Las Vegas no gas for 1.5 hrs to LDLP.ustreamed with u
Pawned my car audio system next day to pre-order lol. Sick Times
Love you all, my friends!

I'd love that actually.

Thoughts?
Agreed. I'm thinking both brothers saying in unison "hi, we're boards of Canada. Hope you enjoy the new album" in a cheesy, radio insert type way. Seriously, what if it's a special mix with all sorts of out takes and linking material? Oh man. In our dreams guys.jcotteri wrote:I'd love that actually.

followed by the chinks of pint glasses and a simultaneous cheers.

Who cares? It comes out in Japan literally 24 hours later - at that point, you'll have some crunchy FLACs of the real release.Weekend_Warrior wrote:Is this really a good idea being so close to the release date???
Surely, this stream will be recorded, edited, and flooding the net in a matter of hours
It's highly likely someone is going to record the stream when it happens and upload it. So if you can't handle it anymore you could hear it after work, or just wait until you get the album. I'm not sure what I'm doing yet, I'll probably give in and listen to the streamthinkdontpray wrote:ok what the fuck is that guy smoking because i would love some of it!
so this stream, its a one and done type deal right? i will be working so i wont be able to listen but i kinda just want to wait till the album is in my hands to hear it
The needle that etches the first dubplate can't cut the 90° angles of a digital waveform, so it ends up rounding off all of the peaks and edges and creating a sinusoidal, analog groove, even if the original sound was entirely digital. I was really surprised when I heard my first track on vinyl because it sounded so much warmer and more brilliant than the sounds I'd just had mastered.Ottomatik wrote:Does vinyl really change how the record sounds?BunnyRabbit wrote:My first vinyl listen will be special however I first hear it.
awwww man. Yeah.BunnyRabbit wrote:Ottomatik wrote:Does vinyl really change how the record sounds?BunnyRabbit wrote:My first vinyl listen will be special however I first hear it.
Well, yes. All formats sound different. But so for that matter does every listening environment. The mastering for vinyl will be different to that for CD. The engineer will change the sound to optimise for vinyl. In my opinion vinyl sounds best but pedants argue about which is actually better. If there was a 96KHz 32bit version of the release it might be better.The only best there is is how BoC heard it in their studio as they mixed it down. Everything else is a necessary compromise.
