I agree with Joebot Kill somewhat not that unfathomable...

She is P rocks as well.

I love She is P, very catchy little melody - the fact it appears early on, on 2 of the tapes, suggest to me they were pretty keen on this track back in the day.

when i hear orange hexagon sun the melody reminds me of aphex twin but i cant think which tune it is.

anyone else get this?

I love Boards' old work. Recently I've been listening to it more often than any of their releases on Warp. My favorites:

Spectrum (Really reminds me of Wildlife Analysis.)
Sequoia
5.9.78
Northern Plastics (Kiteracer 1?)
Fly in the Pool
I Love My New Shears
We've Started Up
Jimbo Rehearsing
Iraq Says (Not sure why, haha.)

And possibly Concourse and Whitewater if you consider Boc Maxima to be "old".

A couple of the Vol. 1 tracks have really grown on me recently, especially side 1 Audiotrack 13 and side 2 Audiotrack 16. The electric guitar stuff in side 1 Audiotrack 07 is pretty nifty, too.

I've really been getting into the Old Tunes. Current favourite is Whitewater - though there are many others which also hit the spot.

I've tried a search, but would someone point me in the direction of the source of the sample used? Ta.

At first i was very confused by the tracks, but as i kept on playing them i started really like them, but yeah i would only recommend them to hardcore BoC fans, i think you have to like they're newer stuff first before you can really appreciate them. It's almost like listening to there childhood or something and it's really interesting hearing a little thing where you go 'ahh it's defiantly BoC in there'.

Sorry to double post but http://bocpages.org/wiki/Whitewater the sample can be found here.

Ah, thanks for that!

And I see the multiple "byes" from another track (whose name escapes me) are here too.


Edit: I forgot it's from "Sunshine Recorder".

I think they are fantastic. The sound is raw.

i never appreciated them till I became a bigger Boards fan, but now that I do i think it's very interesting and AWESOME!

I listen to Old Tunes more than their new stuff these days. They probably haven't released it because of how pervasive the use of sampling is on it. I doubt they could get a lot of the tracks out there; that is, Trapped, Forest Moon, Nine Rubber Wisdom (I believe? Not sure if mine is mistagged; I'm referring to the one that samples "Mickey" by Toni Basil.)

There are a lot more but those are the ones that stick out to me in particular. Point being, though, they have a lot of copyrighting to take care of if they want to get it released. :p I would figure, at least. Maybe they DID do that already, but there's no real evidence of such as far as I can tell.
