Feel free to shoot me down again XD
See, I was trying to organize my thoughts to something similar...
They've said in the past that they've got "thousands" of tracks and a lot would "never see the light of day". What if that's what these tracks are? Something to keep the party moving, but not the end game something like a 40 minute mix would usually be.
Who knows. As much as I'm telling myself it's not BoC, I keep finding ways to find a connection.
I did see someone ask at one point if the social media "presence" has disappeared during this, but didn't see a reply. Anyone post anything lately that could be liked by them? Preferably Twitter...
I AM GOD. THE ULTIMATE RESONANCE.
There are a lot of different 'me's, you know. There's the mad me, when I get angry.

That was me actually asking about the social media presence. I don't think anybody checked and I'm not on them.
And yes, they've said specifically in interviews that they have hundreds of tracks in various stages of development and I can image that their sketches like these. Just them futzing around with tones and textures.
When you read in the interviews about how much work goes into a BOC track, you definitely understand why it takes so much time to make them.

And it seems all instagram activity has stopped as well. Which some people are arguing that its fake, but considering it posted the WXAXRXP promos the same time the twitter account did, and it was tagged in multiple promotional pictures, plus the formatting of the videos, I say its real.

PIC is a follower and somehow this doesn't get enough credit. The man shot the amazing Geogaddi cover and is a member of Hexagon Sun. He's not some random acquaintance of the bros like DJ Food.

So I decided to check their old releases' (Catalog 3, Acid Memories, etc.) tracks list, and I **think** if all this is real, the first track on this video
MIGHT be "Drone 18" off Catalog 3 because it has an almost exact run time of around 6:40 minutes.

I actually messaged PIC about the account, to no response.

Maybe I'm just going crazy or something idk
This mixtape in general sounds like extremely early BOC music, or at least how it's described. There's a lot of 80s no-wave and industrial influences. Sonic Youth type drones but with keyboards instead of guitars, extremely lofi, industrial beats, tape experiments.
However, I actually hear some bright synth lines and guitar strumming that point in the direction of future BOC.
Whether this is BOC or not, I want a copy of it! It's amazing! It's music made purely for the sake of making brand new sounds with no interest in commercial values at all.
