I'm tentative

Im keeping everything crossed but what do we have to go on that it's BoC related? The rainbow sounds are Enya and the story was posted by Odd, Is there a BoC connection I'm missing here besides the Boc pages story being reposted? Could be a false flag disinformation campaign by deep dark elements. Imo we need to have a hearing in congress to get to the bottom of this

Looks like we got an pre-announcement announcement.

"WTN702 @OddNosdam71 clear 7"/DL pre-order details to follow. End Is Important / Here To Know"

Curious if "End Is Important / Here To Know" is the tracklist (side a / side b), or if that's some random slogans to theme the release. Putting the titles at the end of an announcement is a weird format.

It says more details to follow, so whether BoC is involved is still yet to be determined. The common theory has been an Odd song on side A, and a BoC remix on side B. Here's hoping that comes true, but if not I'll still probably pick this up because the snippets sound awesome!

Nevermind that's most definitely the tracklist.

Looks like no BoC involvement unless there's a "(feat. Boards of Canada)" on one of them.

Again though, these tracks sound awesome! I'll pick this up for sure if I get he chance.

Maybe Odd got the wrong end of the stick and thought the Boc community were getting hyped for an Odd release.. Or he's riding the BoC hype train for the publicity. Not something I would imagine him doing of his own volition, But it was kind of offered up to him with that BoC pages story and he went with it.

I still think the whole thing is a bit of a reach.. Odd shares a snippet of some music on his insta and for some reason we thought it was something to do with BoC :/

Hopefully the bros contributed a track but if not I'm not really surprised that it has literally fuck all to do with them

What about Marcus liking it? And Odd and the record company deliberately interacting with BOCpages'stories

Though I think you're better off asking Mr. BOCpages themselves than me.

That said, if we've been stargated, so be it. At least Odd is selling us something awesome and if it's Marcus endorsed, double the reason to check it out. And personally, I will take a new album over a remix anyway

Fair points, Also no name on the cover doesn't mean they aren't featured either going by previous remixes.

I want to believe

Couldn't there just be a remix of BoC that isn't on the tracklist?
People bring out entire albums without remixes, and then release a few remixes afterwards all the time right?

So the track list seems to rule out a BOC remix but it could still be a BOC co-production?

Can you dudes just let Odd Nosdam have his release hype without leaving him feeling like a second fiddle to someone that isn't involved in his artistry.
Yes, BoC may have a remix but damn, if that's all people want from him that's gonna feel rubbish. For people to analyse and give more credit to the remixers input than the actual artist, it shows a lack of care and though for others.

It does not sound like BoC so let Odd Nosdam have your praise for his work, if you like it.

A BoC remix is literally all I want

Forgive me for wanting my favourite band to release literally anything.

BoC or not, the songs sound great. I'm definitely going to pick this up no matter what. You're right we should give Odd his due for these tunes instead of only caring because of the slim chance that a band he was associated with 18 years ago is involved, but at the same time, you can't deny that Odd didn't help the situation by sharing the bocpages story which was only made to speculate on whether BoC was involved.

Plus it's still not confirmed one way or another... And, either way, this is generating hype for this release. I definitely wouldn't have known about it if people hadn't shared that snippet thinking it sounded like BoC.

I'm on Team Biz with this argument. Odd and WTN records called attention to this music by reposting BOCpages several times. Either they're taking advantage of the free publicity, (Fredd has 5000 followers and Odd and WTN only have 2000) or it is BOC related.

That said, I just really dig the dope remix of Enya. It sounds like Macquirie Ridge to me so whether it is the boys, or it's Odd, I want the track. It will be a good Headphase fix for me!

Wait, is it an actual Enya song we hear? I thought everyone was saying it just sounded like Enya.

It's probably a well utilized sample of Enya turned into an idm track. At least that's what the youtube link on the first page sounds like to me

Man was so hyped for this on Friday but it came and went. Hope we here more news soon.

If I was to put out my theory on this, if it is BOC related, it might be a production job by them like the Sexual Objects single in 2009.

Looking forward to this 7", it's surely nothing to do with Boards of Canada and the like is clearly Marcus Eoin supporting his friends new release.

I think it sounds an awful lot like the chord progression in Olson. Yeah there is some similarity to Aldebaran but I think it's just because it's using a similar synth patch.

I'm still puzzled why bocpages was involved this much by Odd and the label if it isn't BoC related. They know my bocpages accounts don't promote other people's work. Since the beginning I've chosen to keep bocpages strictly BoC related. Oh well. I still have hope there's more to it than just leverage of my account for self promo.

Update: it's basically an Enya remix lol. I'm done.

You are responding to a thread in the Boards of Canada section of a Boards of Canada fan site.

I'm definitely excited for new Odd Nosdam, but that's not the subject of this discussion. This thread is about whether or not the Nosdam post was BOC related.

Feel free to start a Nosdam thread in the This Random Sound section.
