Oh sorry it took me long, I have pretty much EVERYTHING Boards of Canada has been involved with that we know about(except the obvious Acid Memories...Hooper Bay...)
But I don't have Wouldn't You Like To Be Free! Or that random Seseme Street Excerpt. AND THAT IS ALL I ASK!!
Here is the old website excerpts I have uploaded:

Thank you good sir!
What's this Sesame Street Sample everyone is talking about? Never heard of it.
And I have Wouldn't You Like To Be Free. But it's not top-notch quality because I could only find it on youtube, so I just took it from there and converted it to mp3. Same with Duffy and Circles. Figured it doesn't really matter since it's not like that era of BoC is really about production in the first place.

Hey do any of you guys remember that video that was on Youtube a while ago that had clips from the movie Waking Life and apparently an old BoC track? It's been removed recently and I'm having trouble finding the track. It says it was on Old Tunes but I'm pretty sure it's not. Anyone know what I'm talking about? The track was pretty ambient and also relatively short, but it was fucking incredible.

I made that video. Sadly it was removed due to apparent copyright violation. It was retarded.
The song was the very first song in Old Tunes Volume 1, so its Side A Track 1 I believe.
I think the video can still be viewed from the bocpages.org site, as it was saved into the site. Here is a link:
http://bocpages.org/wiki/Videos Scroll down to "Creations By". It's the first one, under my name (747Music).

Nope. It's down there too as it's just a direct youtube embedded link. You should reupload it and edit the link on bocpages.

If I re-upload it to youtube, won't it just get taken down again. And couldn't that put my youtube account at risk?

Hmm yes, you're probable right. They have automated video scanners which will detect the copyright shizzle. You better not risk having your account suspended.

this is nothing, but i thought i'd share:
over at the blog
Altered Zones, they did a featurette on an artist named Blithe Field (whomever that is). in their description of him, they wrote this:
"Blithe Field arrives at the right time too, as Boards of Canada have presumably been assimilated by the borg, and the formerly Fahey-summoning Bibio has discovered the cosmic ball of funk on Bootsy Collins’ ranch, and just wants to dance. We need an artist like this now more than ever." among other things.
i just thought it was funny.
here is the
full text if anyone gives a fuck.
yup.

Copyright is the lamest shit. Jesus christ. You should just show the video to Richard Linklater and see if he actually gives a fuck.
Hmmm well it isn't in either of the "Few Old Tunes" that I have... mind sharing a link to the one you got it from?

Wow. Bidding starts at US $113. wouldn't be surprised if this fetched in excess of $250! I'm so glad I already have this on vinyl.
Warp should really repress all the old BoC vinyl. They'd make a fucking fortune!

That's insane. Yes, they really should if one can sell for 250

Yes, Warp should repress everything.

Thought I would share this if anyone hasn't seen it yet. It seems BoC takes much inspiration from Sesame Street...and Hexagons...

I'm sure I saw somewhere that this theme was composed by Philipp Glass…
