Boards of Canada official Youtube Channel Notification?

I was just checking my Youtube and noticed I got a notification from BoC's Youtube page. I thought maybe there was some new video but I didn't see anything new, besides there being updated and possibly new playlists (I've never seen the reversed playlist before). Perhaps that's why I got a notification? Either way it's still cool and I thought I'd share this to you all. :P

That's all stuff that's been there for awhile. Reminds me of the bunk Soundcloud notification about a "Geogaddi playlist" that went out last year tipping people off to the Geogaddi tracklist error though (which in turn led to a hint about the Mr. Mistake vinyl)

I do wonder what the private video in the video playlist is.

It may have been set to private at a later date. Do you mean in the playlist of Fan videos?

As for the notification, it may well mean that a video was uploaded as unlisted and is to be linked to at a later date, it may just be a glitch.

It was the WHY remix they did years ago I think. Someone in the BoC facebook group linked it from BoC's youtube with yesterday's date on it, and it's not available to watch anymore. The video description was pretty standard stuff, but it did mention the 2018 Joyful Noise record label, so it wasn't a completely accidental upload. A bit odd.

I was blown away the first time I heard that one. I love the horns. I used to listen to it a lot; I found it addictively melancholic.

Maybe the good friday re-uploads could be some sort of hint to good friday, which is friday 19th april 2019. Although that seems a bit too obvious for boc...

It's clearly directly related to the re-issue of the track, likely nothing more.

looking at their fan video playlist and seeing alot of old tunes tracks and a few R35TT tracks, it's cool to see them acknowledging their existence even tho i don't think they approved their releases. Hell, even Echus was in there, so i guess they have no hard feeling toward whoever bootlegged the track. BTW, has anyone theorized that the brothers themselves might have been the ones to leak R35TT and Old Tunes? They do work in mysterious ways, after all.

The brothers leaking the tapes?
Then why do the rips only come in low bit rate mp3?

It's not low bit rate, it's just low quality from the worn-out tapes. Even if the rips were WAVs they'd sound the same. The releases that never made it onto CD might not be available in any better quality than we currently have.
