I recognise those slanty towers from a recent holiday I had in Madrid.

That's it. They're the tallest in my country, I think, very close to where I live.

I made a huge 6 hour playlist of all BoC for me and my friend when we went on our road trip to Alberta, Canada. Perfect.
I assumed to place certain songs in certain spots throughout the playlist to fit moods, and succeeded. Whitewater was one of the last, and it fit perfectly.

The two trippiest times that I have listened to Boards was in the same day, when I went to Tokyo by airplane, and when I got off the airplane and took a YCAT bus to where I would be staying at.
The first experience I was listening to some other music before (Some alt rock like Cake and Gorillaz) and I was trying to get some sleep, so I turned on "In a beautiful place" and the weirdest thing happened. I don't know if it was the plane, or if my ears were just not tuned properly, but I heard the song about 20 cents flat. I was shocked at how out of tune the song sounded, and but I kept on listening, thinking that it was just me. About 10 seconds later the sound went back to normal, but hearing it on a plane was disorienting. It sounded like the most sickening tune of all time.
Then, about 10 hours later I got off that plane and got on a bus from the airport, and rode through Tokyo to Yokohama with The Campfire Headphase. It was the first time that I had been into another continent, and the first time I had ever been into a country that didn't speak English. It was really nice to listen to those chilled out tunes and digest all of the information from a completely alien culture. Some of the best experiences though were out in the Japanese countryside, where you can see human influence, but in the form of rice farming, mostly, and the sky had this wonderful peach color.
Also reefer and Boards go well on a Subway train.

I listened to 'Heard From The Telegraph Lines'. The world synced with my thoughts.

I recently traveled through Canada, from Vancouver to Montreal, stopping in each town along the way (well, almost each).
Playing Transcanada highway while driving up to the icefields below jasper was a revelation -
it all made perfect sense.
The crisp, high sounds & less muted-than-usual tones perfectly synaesthetically matched the snowy and icey surroundings, in a way that they don't match my (similar to scotland) homebase of Hamilton,New Zealand.
I'm convinced that transcanada, and to a lesser extent campfire headphase, is based on returning to canada many years later and seeing how their childhood memories stack up to the finished product - and combination of new experiences and childhood memories.
That's the way it felt like-
I may be wrong

A strong memory I'll always have is with Music is Math. I was driving home from a dropping off a friend at a casino in the middle of nowhere. It was late at night and ridiculously foggy outside, all I could see was the twisty road and a little bit of the dark earth to my sides before it was obscured by fog. It really felt like I could be in some gigantic space of nothingness, and I knew I had to put on some Music is Math. The song perfectly encapsulated that moment, and I'll never forget it, there was such a deep feeling inside of me I don't think I could even put to words.

I dubbed "Echus" onto a cassette tape and wandered around South Wales in the rain. Easily one of the most amazing experiences of my entire life.

Hey what's up, this is my first post. My first trip to Europe I climbed a mountain peak in Norway 4,000 feet above sea level. Geoggadi was in my ear on the way up, TCH (my absolute favorite) on the way down. Words fail to describe, but I can tell you I'm a better person b/c of that experience.

i'm in my fourth year of university, and i spent a few months during high school consistently falling asleep with MHTRTC playing through headphones.
I got to know by when i would fall asleep, and started the album at different tracks so I wasn't always listening to the same few songs.
The album feels especially burned into my head / important to me because of this, i think

couple of years ago whilst travelling through Japan, had Campfire Headphase on whilst staying in a Capsule 'hotel' - kept the sheer terror at arms length for an hour at least!
