But they released Trans Canada Highway after that..

Trans Canada Highway is one of the most underrated EPs EVER!!!!!!!!! Ive listened to that EP thousands of times! HIGHLY recommended!!!

Just listen to LSD.

Left Side Drive is fucking brilliant. You know that fugue-like part around 4 minutes in? It's in the same (rainbow) vein as the ending of the Last Walk Around Mirror Lake remix. I love that stuff.

yes exactly! and that last bit of the track after that part is like wtf! what happened, where am I!?

trans canada is uber underrated,album of skylineresque tracks wud be fly

Skyliner does rock.

Re: Left Side Drive - Wait, can someone explain to a dude with virtually no classical musical education what makes the part at 4min fuguey? i would've described it as "those squishy synths that shuffle their feet".

While you take LSD..mwahahaha!!

Agreed, Trans Canada Highway is filled with Kickassery. Under the Coke sign is one of my favorite short pieces.

I only just realised that the names of The Campfire Headphase and Trans Canada Highway both have the acronym TCH... perhaps the beginning of a series?

I hadn't realized that either... wonder what the significance is.

On the other hand, I completely agree with this.

The ones on Trans Canada Highway have a completely different feel to me, with the longer ones more percussion based and the short ones very minimalist. It's much colder than Campfire Headphase (which is apt in several ways).

I personally like to think that Trans Canada Highway is some shit they did after the fact while releasing Headphase, 'cause they were still all inspired by the path they had taken musically, and then they went "Oh shit, that would have been so killer, too bad we already released Headphase." So they just put out the rest as another record.

Yeah?

Heard From Telegraph Lines - I always melt when i listen to this track, it's so gorgeous

I think its tracks that didn't fit The Campfire Headphase, by no means leftovers as they are as good as music can be! Wonder how the new records will sound and when it will be released...maybe a december release date and they will announce it next week! :O how about that?

We can only dream!
