I'm pretty sure they played the instruments themselves in recreating it. So it's not source material, but it is a part of what resulted in BoC's Old Tune though. Also, definitely share them files with us, dude! I'd love to gander at what you have collected.

I thought it was all sampled from this : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nf1HmWmaCZc
They just added a high pitched synth line and the speech from sixtyniner.

I remember having a load more sample sources and misc. stuff that I can't find right now. It's frustrating because I remember listening to them all... I also have many strange remixes and covers - not sure about the copyright on those so I didn't throw them in the dropbox.

Most of these were already in 747's folder but there's a few extras in there. it would be great to get them all organised and in one place.

Thanks for contributing to this, Omikron! Please do find those other sample sources and misc stuff your referring to, cause I have all of the stuff in that tar file and desperately want to expand my collection. I love that you have conveniently combined the two website flash files named 6f or something like that. I'm talking about the file you have called "Music70 Loop Sample 2006". Saved me the time of combining them. You gave the song at a good length too, which is awesome. Or did you record the website itself instead of combining the source files? Cause I still have the source files somewhere if you don't have them and want them.

And yeah, that youtube video has got to be the original rendering and the file I included is a reworking or something. But they're the same song. And it does indeed sound like BoC directly sampled it and added some stuff. I'm definitely ripping that youtube video and keeping both.

Come on twoism, share your misc stuff and sample sources, but keep it within the forum rules of coarse. Omikron's on board already. Tickets are free and the ride is awesome!

I'll spend a good amount of time tomorrow searching and organizing my files to share. I'm gonna re-read the forum rules to make sure I don't break em. They're simple rules and I already know em pretty well, but I want to make damn sure I don't leave any risk for mistakes.

Mods, I probably don't have to ask this, but please keep a special eye on this thread just in case. I don't want to get into trouble here, and I definitely don't want twoism.org itself or any other members to get into trouble.

Found what I was looking for, big folder of sample sources organised by the BoC track they appear in

https://www.dropbox.com/s/4xmcdejyjplw9 ... s.tar?dl=0

I'm sure all of these are well documented by now but it took me a while to track them down

Awesome! Thanks, dude! Some of those I never ended up downloading for myself after we found the source, and now I have them.

Hey, sorry for the delay, friends. I've been pretty busy lately. I'm currently taking care of my folks house while they're on vacation. Once I'm back at my flat at the end of next week I'll get the files uploaded for your enjoyment and convenience. Thanks for being patient.



...that last sentence made it feel like I'm running a big business with trained customer service here lol. It was sincere though.

BoC Web Loops are a lucrative business if ever I heard one. Approach the dragons with it:

Any news on the files, 747?

Hey, sorry, I've been horrible at remembering to do this. I have some free time later this evening. I'll get at it then and upload it tonight.

I feel bad for you guys waiting so long so I quickly whipped together what I've organized off of my hard drives and uploaded it.

Here's the link: https://www.dropbox.com/s/6pbm4y3s42sfo ... m.rar?dl=0

I'll keep looking for more pics later. Sorry again for the delay.

I'd love to know the source of some of those pics. I'll ask specifics later.

Just posting the original-decompiled audio files from the old Music70 website.
I don't think someone uploaded this already. Download file

Has anyone tried to decompile all the shockwave files (.dcr) from boardsofcanada.com? I failed terribly...

Hello Matoseb, and welcome.
Those two files haven't been uploaded in this thread, but a few of us already had em. I grabbed them from the site while they were live along with some others here. I had only recently (in the last month or two) stumbled across them again. Cosmic Manta had me realize that it really sounds like a tribute to the soundtrack to Day of the Dead.

Hi, thanks 747!

I'm still looking for the other original quality samples (like this one). I don't know how Omikron got them (all I can find are shockwaves files nearly impossible to decompile) and if they are uncompressed (I'm pretty sure they aren't).

Also when was "Flutes" originally posted? I tried to find it on the Wayback Machine without success.

Oh my.. Flutes was on there around when I finished high school I believe. So around 2004-2005-ish. The dropbox link earlier in this thread to the website sounds are still live. Here it is again: https://www.dropbox.com/s/so3bcj6ywsqqo ... s.rar?dl=0

Flutes is simply a sample from the 1963 version of the film Lord of the Flies. Listen here:

I haven't seen higher quality versions around. Would be nice to have a shockwave hacker in our midst. I think it was a watmmer who pulled the sounds out of the shockwave files years and years ago. I don't remember in the slightest who it was though.

Alright, after a lot of digging I found pretty much all of them.
I'm still missing flutes in original quality and maybe some others, let me know.

I uploaded them on archive.org:
- Boc web loops 2002
- Music70 web loops
- Earlier boc web loops

Nicely done!

Thanks

I found two new web loops in original quality!
- fs2, also commonly known as "flutes". A sample from the 1963 movie Lord of The Flies.
- tb3, from the track A is to B as B is to C.
I updated the archive.

Awesome. Thanks! I had no idea the old website was so interactive. Makes me really sad they took it down.
