Boards of Canada Sleep Mix

clearcut · Post by **clearcut** » Wed Apr 22, 2015 4:05 pm

I decided it would be an interesting idea to compile the majority of BoC's ambient tunes into a mix and see what the result came out like, for my own purposes. I thought the result was a really relaxing mix that would be really nice to listen to while going to sleep, so here it is.

The reason why almost all of the tunes are in a different key is because since I initially made this for myself, I tuned down/up the tunes to the key signatures that send a shiver down my spine (b flat, f sharp, d sharp minor etc). All of the tunes have a bit of reverb too just to make them more fitting to sleep to. Enjoy!

very cool, even though it will probably get pulled for copyright

Last time I tried falling asleep to Diving Station, You Could Feel The Sky and Beware The Friendly Stranger, bad things happened.

I recommend trying to fall asleep to the Kid for Today.
The male voice near 2/3 may be creepy when half-asleep.
Good list, good idea. They constantly are with me when I'm not awake

up the marchbank and hiscroes definitely win the most points for nostalgia.

quick question: why on earth does up the marchbank fade out? it seems like it's gonna segue into nova scotia robots then just fades out.

Nice!

Do you think it would be possible to upload this mix with a tracklist to www.mixcloud.com ? That way I could share it to bocpages AND add it to this section on bocpages.org : http://bocpages.org/wiki/Fan_Community#Mixcloud
