Re: Rate the Boards track above you
completly frustrated by the outro, Music is Math is for me one of the very classics boc has delivered and deserved a less brutal end... however, magisterial. 9/10.

Re: Rate the Boards track above you
9/10 definitely a great early sound. It's always sounded like a less mature version of something off of MHTRTC, like Telepathic Workshop.

Yup, great little track that eases in and out. I prefer the drum beat over the melody, it sounds like robots working in unison, bery charming sound. It's Too Orangey isn't too bad either, adds that extra 0.5 to the score.

Re: Rate the Boards track above you
If someone were to ask what an average BoC track were to sound like, this would be one of my go to tracks. It hits all the typical BoC notes with that BoC flavor, yet it doesn't really seem to do anything special. It's almost just "yet another BoC track." 84 Pontiac Dream is another really good example of this.Skimming Stone wrote: Magic Teens
So, being average, it gets a 5/10.
To tie in with other happenings in this thread, the next track to rate will be Telepath.

One of my favorite short tracks on TH. It's not particularly interesting, but it does have a neat feel to it. 8/10ScienceGuy wrote: To tie in with other happenings in this thread, the next track to rate will be Telepath.

Re: Rate the Boards track above you
9/10. Instant classic for me, although I have been finding Skyliner a bit more enjoyable recently. It's like the relaxing wind down after Dayvan Cowboy.Cosmic Manta wrote:Left Side Drive

Re: Rate the Boards track above you
10/10
Beautiful, beautiful piece. Seems laconic on the surface but in reality is one of the toughest BoC tracks to figure out underneath. I particularly love the bit where the low, deep strings come in below whatever the fuck all the other instruments are (Hey Manta, any guesses?). If there's a 9 minute version out there I am slowly dying inside each day that I don't get to hear it.
Whitewater or Red Moss (take your pick)

Re: Rate the Boards track above you
There's a bit during the middle where the drums drop out, and you can only hear the strings. It sounds like they took a string sample from some old keyboard, ran it through a distortion pedal and then into their sampler. It also sounds like it's drenched in spring reverb.Jango9 wrote:I particularly love the bit where the low, deep strings come in below whatever the fuck all the other instruments are (Hey Manta, any guesses?).
If we're thinking of the same sound, the deep strings are just the patch used for the other string chords, but played in a lower octave.
The synth bass sound that comes in at the beginning is most likely an SH-101.

Re: Rate the Boards track above you
I'm picking Red Moss, which I've really started to like lately. The drum beat is funky, the main synth line is funky, those little flourishes that come in are funky, everything about this track is funky. It's a great tune to blast as loud as possible in the car.Jango9 wrote:Whitewater or Red Moss (take your pick)
Though it's really good, rating it against other BoC tracks probably results in a 7/10
Next up is one of the two new remixes we got this year: Sisters

Re: Rate the Boards track above you
Really don't like Sisters to be honest. It's missing the BOC headspace for me personally.ScienceGuy wrote:I'm picking Red Moss, which I've really started to like lately.

Re: Rate the Boards track above you
8.5/10. The Why remix is great because the vocals are so out of place and off beat, yet they somehow make it work with the track. i really enjoy the horn that drops in the background of the track, well, at least i think its a horn. also, the last 2 min of the track are unbelievable with the the psychedelic background effects and the tribal drums

I love the Midas touch remix so much. Everything about it is just so clever the way they've changed it. They could have done a bit more with the ending though.
Dandelion. I wanna know if you guys like this interlude

Re: Rate the Boards track above you
I certainly do. It's not my favorite Geogaddi track, but it's still really good. Kicks off the best section of that album IMO (lasting through TSWN). Also really good backwards. 6/10Headphase wrote:Dandelion. I wanna know if you guys like this interlude
Next up is a really good old tune: Heysanna Hosanna
Welcome, my friend. These are my people; now they are your people too.
Re: Rate the Boards track above you
Heysanna Hosanna, 2/5. Its just one of the hexies showing off the Webber song he'd been practicing that month. A suprisingly difficult little tune to play well.

5.9.78. 10/10. Probably my favourite rarity. One of those classic boc tunes that takes you back in time / puts you in another place.
