Whomever controls the Boards Bandcamp page is busy this morning. Sorry for the bad quality image.

Have they never had music on bandcamp previously?

Seems odd they'd only put MHTRTC, IABPOINC and Geogaddi no?

No they have not, as far as I know. All (3) of those were added just this morning.

Direct links if needed:

Music Has The Right To Children:

Geogaddi:

In A Beautiful Place Out In The Country:

MHTRTC has Happy Cycling as the last track.

And there's a nice banner image as well: https://f4.bcbits.com/img/0022568402_100.png

I saw the alerts in my email saying "New release from Boards of Canada" three times and freaked out.

Same here! I saw it right as I was waking up.

Also of note, they have that Instagram page linked on Bandcamp, so, unless the Bandcamp is fake, safe to say the IG page is legit as well.

I bought them as I've never had the albums as uncompressed files before and the Bandcamp email receipt says:

Thanks again for your support,
Bandcamp (on behalf of Warp Records)

Yea, being facetious mostly. If I recall they actually took over/claimed the BOC Bandcamp page from someone on this forum. There's no reason it's not legit.

Yayyy!

Perfect place to upload some old casual material

The rest of the albums and EPs are up now.

(with the exception of Hi Scores, presumably due to it being a Skam release)

More added now. 8 in total.

From the bandcamp page source, you can see that these were uploaded on November 19th 2020 and modified (ie changed from private to public) today December 1st.

Interesting - though as an artist that uses Bandcamp I've done the exact same (published to private early). Have to keep from daydreaming about more unreleased stuff going up...

Interesting, we can safely say its an official account, otherwise it would've been taken down already.

Yes! bands tend to upload misc/unreleased type of stuff on bandcamp since its self released and not on a label.

Am I going to buy all these albums again?

Ok, so the good news is, the Bandcamp account is indeed official...

But the bad news?

This all likely means nothing as Warp have simply uploaded their whole catalog onto Bandcamp, and of course, this includes BoC.

Yea just saw this...still, this confirms the IG is real. Perhaps there's still something to all the activity this year.

Admittedly, I've always doubted the authenticity of the IG, purely because it had no official affiliation. However, we now have that missing connection, and boy does it feel good to be proven wrong

A good sign indeed. Boc banner update and all those liked comments on insta. I think we soon might hear from them.

Definitely! I wasn't sure myself but glad we now have the missing piece.
