Wow, just stumbled onto this thread accidentally! A little late to the party but never mind. According to itunes I've heard this song 67 times and I've never heard Noatak (although I do like the theory). I've always wondered what the "cigaretto" was all about. I think the song should be titled:
STOP THAT! Don't put it in her eyes

Speaking of unknown live tracks, the 11 minute closer to the Live @ Warp 10 set is brilliant,
One of my favourites of their unreleased material.

i was just reading up about this song on bocpages and it says,
"Track 6 was used exclusively as a loop on the Boards of Canada webpage circa 2000 and 2001. It can now be found here" 'here' is taking me to

but for me, that link doesn't do anything. could someone shed some more light on this for me?

Also tried it a week ago or so and it didn't work for me either. However, the loop's included here:
(somewhere within the first two minutes, if I recall)

0:55 on the loop is the excerpt from ATP track 6... Brilliant little signal-like vignette preceding the track discussed in the OP - and I've always felt those two (6 and 7) complement each other very well.
The two tracks side-by-side form a favourite moment of mine.

have you heard machinedrum's edit?
I think it would make the brothers proud. He beefs up the shotty recording that was available, doesn't take away at all or add any bullshit. He did a great job, IMO.

At 3:58 in that track you can hear the vocoded voice say "you cant control, you can't stop me"
I've always liked to think that it wasn't just a sample and one of the bros said that lol.

The electronic voice bit besides "See The Rainbow", sounds like "when will it stop?" to me.

I think the remark "What does it mean?" Is poking fun at this maybe?
"Double rainbow, all the way across, what does it meeeaaaannnn?"

I've got to say, This quote has been bugging me for years now! I think this must be a clue to the name of a track, or a clue to something..
Mdg knows an awful lot about pretty much any track/sample we throw at him.
Maybe we just need some fresh eyes and ears to investigate
Edit: I remember a couple of us debunked the sample in this track to be 'electric star' or thereabouts and not 'Noatak'.. But that doesn't prove that this track isn't Noatak..
Sorry to bring up this long dead thread
That's all I've got to say!

In the context of the sample "See the rainbow" from ATP07

From the track Apperatus: "It formed a distinctive pattern of interference - That pattern" "
What does it mean?"
Is there a link between ATP07 and Apperatus? Is a rainbow effect due to TV interference? And what does THAT mean in a technical context?

We have the same quote in blue referring to ATP07 and Apperatus
We have the rainbow sample from ATP07
In Apperatus they are talking about a distinctive pattern of interference
And that is a distinct rainbow pattern of interference
