Trapped and Midas Touch have never felt like real BoC songs. They're kind of funny, but not songs that I listen to seriously.

I will not allow Surfaise to be eliminated so early. It's too good.

That is an odd one there. Midas Touch is my favourite out of all of these tracks, and I've heard others say the same. I think I recall mu-ziq saying that it was the highlight of their career for him in an interview haha.

Trapped and Midas Touch are superb BOC tracks. Just as valid as Broken Drum, Good Friday, Dead Dogs Two.

To take the acapella track and recreate an entirely new BOC backing track is absolute aural bliss for me.

I prerfer BOC's versions of the above tracks to the originals by a long chalk.

I could listen to an infinite amount of tracks by BOC recreating backing tracks to other peoples vocal tracks. I would't mind a vocal BOC album actually, with actual songs and guest vocalists....

I'd actually probably enjoy a collaboration between Boards of Canada and cLOUDDEAD, besides the Dead Dogs remix

Yeah I don't understand why it has votes up there with Trapped + Midas Touch (whose high number of votes I do understand!)
...what subtlety?

Trapped brings back nice memories of being trapped in a Burger King parking lot by traffic, just as that song started playing.

That doesn't surprise me. He has some strange taste, despite how good his own music is.

AFOT Trapped is more enjoyable imo, although I appreciate the added complexity of the Hell Interface version. Midas Touch is an amazing remix.

Sad Soylent Night went out so fast, it's so wonderfully bizarre.

I think we can agree that all 4 tracks can be eliminated here. No point in prolonging the inevitable agony...

No sympathy for The Story Of Xentrix? Really now, Twoism?
If The Campfire Headphase was a butterfly, would Acid Memories be the caterpillar?

I think it's obvious that the winner will be Korona, XYZ, or Happy Cycling. But which one of those three it will be is a mystery.

I can't imagine Orange Romeda beating Happy Cycling, XYZ, and Korona. It isn't anywhere near as developed as those three.

I've seen a lot of people commend OR in the past, so idk. It's possible for it to come out on top.
