This could probably pass for an outtake from The Maria Dimension or 9 Lives to Wonder-era Legendary Pink Dots. I've always thought the drums were underwhelming, though, and BoC's limitations at the time prevented this from being what they were probably going for. I'd love to hear what RDJ would have done to the track.

Funny because it sounds like it could be an outtake of Tomorrow's Harvest to me... hell I could almost see a reworked version of this show up on the next EP, if they release one.

I've never thought this song sounded much like Boards of Canada. They were definitely trying a new sound with this one and it worked mostly, but the percussion just doesn't sound good at all to me.

The drums that come in at 4:44 (in the slowed down version) remind me of the drums that come in at 3:40 in Basefree and 1:10 in A07. In fact, I'm fairly certain they used the same machine/technique for those three songs.
