You copy all of your Boards of Canada albums on cassette tapes so the old material is closer related to the "Old Material".
That's exactly what I did with BoC Maxima a few weeks ago :P
Haha OMG I just did that this week! I even added the bonus tracks that they had on the end from someones scan to make it more similar.

On a side note, I was wondering where the breaks were on the vinyl versions of the albums? (MHTRTC, Geogaddi, TCH) I've been trying to find out so that I can Make these into cassettes as well.

I've got two BoC shirts that I where all over... 1 green knock-off one from eBay, and official black one I got recently. I get comments all the time from the most random people... BoC fans love calling each other out! I tend to wear a lot of band shirts (I have 8 different Radiohead shirts in active rotation...) and they rarely get any comments compared to the BoC shirts.

Yeah, I've got the brown nuclear family T-shirt for summer and a black BoC hoodie for winter. So I'm covered all year long.

My halo 3 icon was a turquoise hexagon over an orange background shaped like the sun with sun rays extending out from the center. It's not that nerdy I suppose, nobody ever mentioned anything about it though. Probably too subtle of a reference.

when you make your completely disinterested female best friend a two disc boards compilation with a hand drawn cover, painstakingly copied outfrom an image of their logo on bocpage, with 33 tracks spanning their whole career, loving packaged in a turquoise jewel case...
I think she listened to it once
:roll:

Actually, I just decided that if I ever got a BoC tattoo it would be located behind my ear by the base of my skull (Or in that general area).

I was Thinking maybe it would be a turquoise Hexagon.

I actually made a 4 disk, 40 song compilation set as a birthday present for my mother but I haven't had the chance to give it to her as I never see her that much so it just kinda gathers dust next to my bed.
