Tomorrow's Harvest REVERSED - Almost as good backwards

[hamhax]

I did this last night just for fun, but check it out if you're interested.

As expected, a lot of it works very well the other way around.

Except for the tracks where backmasking is employed, I find the trend of reversing them pointless. It reminds me of that one character from the movie Half Baked: 'You ever see the back of a twenty dollar bill... on weed? You ever check out the stars? ON WEED!' etc.

EDIT: I'm sorry, I didn't mean to come off as rude and make you feel unwelcome with your link. Tomorrow's Harvest definitely has a lot going on 'under the hood'.

I mainly just posted it so it would be available to anyone curious enough to check it out. I'm in no way implying it's something special or contains anything worth checking out, but simply "there ya go."

Tomorrow's Harvest backwards, lol.

Link doesn't appear to be working...

Red team go! red team go!

Agreed. Just because you CAN reverse it doesn't mean you necessarlily should. Obviously the backmasking is worth it but apart from that it just seems odd when you can listen to it as it was meant to be heard.

Perhaps I've missed something discussed elsewhere in the forum, but here goes... I think the whole reversing thing may be being looked over prematurely.

Warp themselves tweeted a reversed version of RFTD:

Unless they did it as a red herring, it seems a bit odd that they would post about it if it had no meaning. From what I gather Collapse sounds pretty much the same backwards and forwards, and there's much discussion about what that might mean.

There's also the fact that it actually sounds pretty good reversed. A lot of reversed stuff sounds like total garbage.

[euue]

yeah but sometimes reversing a song makes it way better

A lot of the tracks do sound great in reverse. Almost like the melodies were structured that way.

Whenever a boc track is put into reverse it only opens more doors of discovery. Whenever i do it i find a hi hat thats been reversed or even a snare. boc is worth it when it comes to finding all of their sounds. to me.

probably gonna make a Project file on an Music Editor and Play every Album track backwards...in proper order starting with semena mertvykh and ending with wildlife analysis

Reversing Boards of Canada songs is always worth doing. There's a lot of interesting stuff in there.

I actually think the reversed version of Dandelion is one of their best melodies.
