My idea is a Happy Cycling EP. This would be the tracklisting:
1. Happy Cycling
2. Happy Cycling (Bad Day Version)
3. Happy Cycling (Original)
And this would be the cover:

It would also be pressed on clear vinyl.
Have you got any ideas? Post them below.

Nice single idea! I'm currently working on a modern version of the R35TT to go as a companion piece to my Few New Tunes volumes posted just earlier today so I guess that's the only idea I have going myself right now (chosen the 35 tracks, just not the order!).

I don't think the cover is very them. It is too literal

4. ATP-06
5. ATP-07
6. Warp10-06
7. ATP-09
8. ATP-02
9. Warp10-07
10. (Bonus Track) Julie and Candy early version (ATP)

For an LP, i'd like for it to be a double album, with a combination of all four boc styles(from the four albums) merged together. The CD would have one bonus track and the vinyl would have another bonus track. Ah that would be really cool.

They have knocked every audio thing I would want to hear out of the park already, but the story of an animal like a squirrel or something, kind of Peter and the Wolf style navigating the dangers of the forest, with other contextual characters like birds and deer and whatever represented by some kind of texture or mode or instrument.

how did you ever get the up on this one? That's exactly what they plan to do.
They are working on a concept album based on the life cycle of one of the oldest living creatures in the Scottish Highlands.
The Haggis a Natural herbivore, its natural habitat being sloping mountain terrain, it is a burrowing animal,its particular Darwinian feature being how it has evolved/adapted to the rigours of harsh terrain by having two of its legs longer on one side of its body than the other, so it can carefully and at speed traverse the ascent of high ground running in a complete circle around a mountain top, either up or down.
The Grey haggis with left sided evolved appendages or the Mottled haggis with right sided appendages often causing the odd collision( a kind of road kill)
As always the Roland SH101 will be used to create the sound of the Haggis
A subject close to their Hearts, I Believe

And I see you found the initial concept art for the cover. Amazing!
I wonder if there will be a PS game based on it?
Or was there something similar a long long time ago . suicidal rodents?
I just love twoism when we are all in the same frame of mind
On A more serious note. I would quite like to see an album of all the remixes they have done.
I have all the obvious ones boom bip, beck, cloudead, poppy seed etc but the rest are harder to get hold of, meat beat manifesto,
mira calix etc I prefer to own the vinyl or cd versions rather than downloads.

I think its interesting that most of these suggestions are for tracks, concepts or samples that have already been heard or released.

Only Mike and Marcus can come up with completely new ideas/albums.
So other than compilations or ideas for remixes or coloured vinyl formats or releases on cassettes etc etc (or dare I say it, Box Set's) there's not a lot of original ideas we can put forward yeh!?

Fuck those guys. here is a two track EP
- The Littlest Robot : basically the adventures of a sad abandoned robot all alone in outer space singing songs of good memories before he was accidentally ejected from an airlock. It whistles in wonder at star clusters etc
- Planet of the Ants : The rich ultra class have gone and biogenetically engineered themselves to be 12 feet tall. Can a rag tag band of poors escape the juice pen before their time is up?

The story of a calcium atom and a carbon atom meeting up again in a new born baby's body billions of years after being shat out of the same star.

I like to see them experiment more with the feeling you get when you have your first wet dream. Or is that what BoC has been about all this time?
