To clarify, it would be shallow to simply wait ten years if you have everything done already. Though I could imagine Warp making them do that for headlines and promos. I’m sure they themselves don’t care. I’d like to believe they finished their actual work on Sep 6th 2020

I'm with you on all that, just to wait ten years would just be silly

i'll take anything over nothing
They didn't actually end up doing that tho, they released it early. And thats the only time they've ever incorporated numerology into a release date at all AFAIK.
Idk, I'd like to think we'll see something in 2022, but I also wanted to believe we'd see something in 2021 and here we are, late September, without anything. It could be awhile yet.

i like to think they chose november 17 to release iabpoitc because it's the 321st day of the year, but that's grasping at straws at that point lol. and im not even sure about that because bocpages and bleep have different release dates
honestly i have a better feeling for 2023 than 2022, because of the 10 years publicity opportunity thing. it would be pretty funny if they chose to release it days before reaching 1 decade, just to go against what's expected
but hey we still have september 30. maybe they'll like a tweet or something. new retweet, perhaps? maybe i'm being too optimistic
That’s numberwang! You could be on to something there.
I’d love it to be a release for 2022, hopefully by then we won’t have turned into a typed out interpretation of this sketch! https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=xmBCh76_qWE
Well none of us are getting any younger and a shot of BOCViagra would go a wonderfully long way.
Seriously boys, My couple and sex life is in danger, the only other thing besides BOC that can do is BDSM
Small reason to have hope: This page. Beatink updates this banner on the top of the page with a featured artist. 3/4 artists were Warp IDM royalty: Squarepusher, Aphex and Flylo. Currently it’s at Flylo and hasn’t changed for any other artist. Not Nightmares on Wax or Mira Calix.
What can be assumed by this, is they only change it for the hugest artists on the label. So perhaps the next huge artist hasn’t happened yet for Japan.
This theory is as out-to-lunch as usual. But hey, it’s the speculation thread and really, what else do we have to go off of.

Thousands and thousands of posts about Boards of Canada, each more climactic than the last! Constant, dizzying, twenty-four hour, yearlong, endless posts about Boards of Canada! Every letter of them massively mattering to someone, presumably. See it all, all here, all the time, forever, it will never stop, the posts about Boards of Canada are officially going on forever! It will never be finally decided when Boards of Canada will release an album! There is still everything to post about, and forever to post about it in! So that's twoism! Coming up! Post about Boards of Canada! Listen to Boards of Canada! Listen to it! Listen to it! It's gonna move... Listen to Boards of Canada! It's Boards of Canada!
The next album is actually going to be a visual piece about us speculating about a new album. With an accompanying short about the life in a day of a twoism user after something gets posted on Instagram or Twitter by the BoC.
I’ve said this before, but to use a millennial Spongebob reference, we’re basically the fish fans who Kevin the Cucumber left in a hole, waiting for him to return.
And we go ‘Hey guys, BOC’s back’ every time they like a tweet. XD

I think BoCSet might be something like Catalog 3, Acid Memories, Closes Vol. 1, Play By Number, Hooper Bay and a bunch of Old Tunes volumes. They'll probably just add a bunch of songs that never made it into albums to stuff like an Old Tunes Vol. 3, etc. I'm pretty certain the Old Tunes that we have are just a bunch of songs that never fit into anything at the time, but they liked.

Imagine that as a collection of vinyl. Normally, probably wouldn’t drop that much on an uber expensive set. But honestly, to one day have that on my bookshelf would be worth the admission price.
Would be pretty rad if we got that and a new album. Best case scenario. We can only hope that’s the case, but eh, iff they release a single new track I’d be as thrilled
