Haha, aye, working for me now.
Must be a new site in the pipelines and the bleep page put up as a redirect until it's fully functioning. For all we know the BoC Bros. could be building it themselves and made a boo boo.
Would love to see/hear more new material, possibly an addition of a tour section (ooo yes please) but don't want to get my hopes up too high, haha.

It's probably only working for the UK/Euro folks, cause over here in the US of A it's still borked.
Edit: Now it's working, and I'm getting sent to Bleep

There's no reason for them to entirely delete their website. I mean, the hexagon album website had Bleep links and all that. I think that they are creating a new website and that the Bleep link is just a portal for new listeners. Or they just thought 'the heck with it' and deleted the website.

Welp, at least we got the entirely legitimate Magic Window EP which they definitely made out of the deal.
Somehow each time we've got our hopes up about something lately they've somehow found a way to undercut even our least interesting conclusions. By comparison, the Mr. Mistake remix came out with no warning whatsoever and was excellent. I think the message to take away from all of this is to never get excited about anything ever that way everything exceeds your expectations.
What a nihilistic view on the world. Hey, wait a minute...

This has to be temporary. Else it's a rather commercial move!

Perhaps then, the lengthy downtime was simply to do with DNS propagation across the internet? It can often take a while when making a change like that.
It surely must be an interim solution while something new is being whacked together.

That's a good point, it can take a day or so to propagate sometimes...

That's just the original design done by TDR. It was probably too expensive so they went with their own design.

It doesn't make sense that they'd need any down time or anything temporary to build a new site. That's not remotely necessary the way modern web development works. I'm not complaining--no harm done. Just doesn't make sense.

To be fair, boardsofcanada.com pretty much always has been a very extensive bleep redirect ever since campfire.
Lets just keep refreshing. Something is bound to happen.

Looks like warp dropped the ball and HS have been left to pick up the slack. It's back on the same server as the old website and the other HS domains. I tried putting that server in my /etc/hosts yday and it just redirected me to
http://stash.warp.net/boc/tomorrows-harvest so this has been a quick hack job on someone's part. I strongly doubt it is intentional but I also doubt there is a new website ready to go up, otherwise why not just put that up instead of bleep?
