That's interesting! I haven't seen that mentioned before. Also interesting that the publisher is Warp, as they weren't signed to Warp when they first released old tunes.
The BoC Maxima tracks are in there as well, but there are quite a few tracks missing from the official releases (e.g. Dayvan Cowboy). Only thing that makes me a bit hopeful is that judging by the work ID numbers, the Old Tunes tracks were added after the tracks from Tomorrow's Harvest. For example, New Seeds (885695173) is smaller than Music for Pylons (886476809) .

Warp has the rights to the back catalog I believe.
This is interesting. Any kind of hype is fun right now.
It sort of ties into Joyrex's cryptic comments about "we've started up, now we're on our way"
Now, he may have noticed that same thing that OP did and just kept it under his hat, which I think is the more likely scenario. It doesn't seem like he's had the inside track on BoC things in quite some time and he definitely jumped the shark with the April Fools joke a few years back.

Agree. I'd like stuff I haven't heard. I like the tape quality of the old stuff- adds to the feel of the era and reminds me of when I was that age, passing tapes around. I would of course welcome a proper release and to hear it the way they intend for it to be heard, but personally I'm dying for outtakes/unreleased stuff from 1995-now, or older tunes we haven't heard.
