01. / 02. Introit / Prophecy At 1420 MHz

[el Cerebro]

It’s barely audible.

I also might be hallucinating, it has indeed been a psychedelic 36 hours.

[Skyraider]

My only real observation is that the voice heard throughout the song really harks back to the tone, style and voice of Sark in the original Tron movie.

Sark? I’m hearing MCP more.

Total brain fart on my part, yes! MCP, sorry about that

Prophecy reminded me of this one:

Somehow Prophecy also reminded me of this track by Ulver:

Quick google says "introit" is Latin for "he enters". I'm sure someone's said so before, but I can't get it out of my head.

I was giggling this time it was some metaphor for detroit. I know how awful that place is but, to feature it as the opening to the inferno? To good

[Den]

It means to enter but it is specifically referring to the psalm or hymn that is played as the clergy enters Mass.

[Mexicola]

'Intro it'
Surely? Like Ready? Let's go.

[Den]

I like that too.

The mmmm Mmmm MMMMM at 1:02 in The Color of the Fire similar fragment to the part of the melody at around 28 seconds in Introit.

I noticed that immediately as well. Also the synths around 3:30 (of the video) sound like a pitched up 'Semena Mertvykh' to me.

Maybe it’s intentional - of all songs The Color of the Fire in the first track of Inferno.

I wonder what the speech panned way deep into the left ear is saying, right when the flutes begin. The tone sounds like a NASA transmission.

It is killing me that we haven't figured this out yet. I ran the .WAV through a stem splitter to try to isolate it, but turns out AI isn't smart.

[Skytree]

You guys see this?

Truly commendable sleuthing work. Just asked my brother about this. He has a religious studies PhD from Boston University and has worked directly with Dr. Nasr, both on research and at conferences/events. There is a reasonable probability he attended this lecture. Will report back with any interesting observations he has.

He is not a big Boards of Canada fan but very open minded and musically inclined - in fact he is directly responsible for getting me into electronic music at an early age. Most of our conversations circle back to music, God and consciousness. I'm hoping this piques his interest and we can nerd out together on it! If not there's always Twoism...

P.S. My brother's research specifically involves how music directly links the human body and mind to religious, spiritual and collective experience through ritual. He really should be a Boards fan but I digress!

Berlook November is all i can get from isolating it with eq. Sounds like the same voice as telepath, so its probably them messing around.

Here is the audio isolated:

When I get some time I’m gonna see if I can get it isolated even further in Audacity. I do firmly believe the tone and feel of it screams NASA, or ATC / pilot audio, etc.

Your brother’s research sounds fascinating, it would be very cool if he attended this lecture.

Imagine being that guy in the audience. 20+ years later your questions are BoC lyrics. Fucking WILD!

LOL

Let’s hope it stays that way…

Here is the audio isolated:

I’ve listened to it dozens of times and the voice immediately sounded familiar to me. I thought I recognised a voice often associated with 80s anime (Albator, Goldorar, etc.) and French film dubbing. Maybe the voice of François Leccia.


As for the sample, I hear: “Tetrum… incantatoire”.

“Tetrum” is a form of the Latin adjective teter (or taeter), meaning hideous, abominable, repulsive, dreadful or foul.
Incantatoire is French for incantatory.

PS. The dots seems to make a heart shape, then it rather make a circle that looks like HAL from 2001 A Space Odyssey.

[Scories]

Or maybe : "Hé Tron, prends garde à toi" (from movie Tron?)
"Hey Tron, be careful"

Still sounds like French to me.

This just popped up on my YouTube feed so apologies if Im late to the party and it has already been posted on here by u/nomis_j. Interesting overlay, lines up pretty well
