One was up on ebay back in January. I have sent a message to the seller to see if they have any information they can share.

Surely a bootleg of stuff already out there.
Should be easy to check the length of that CD from Discogs against the lengths of the 3 live bootleg recordings.

Do you know which tracks they really are?

The length doesn't exactly match with the lengths of any of the bootleg recordings.
The CD is 49:28
Warp10 is about 42:07,
Lighthouse is 33:39,
ATP is 62:02.

How would you certainly know that’s not BoC?
What if they were trying a different style back then?
You can’t just listen to a supposed audio track from BoC and randomly say that it’s not BOC.
Take a listen to “The way you show” by Boards of Canada. It’s from a Few Old Tunes Vol 1. Does that sound like BoC to you?
No it doesn’t! It sounds like it was made in the 2010s by some plunderphonics artist who put it up on Bandcamp.

The Way You Show sounds like BoC to me. that link does not.

What does BoC sound like to you without even knowing if it’s really BoC or not?
Do they have a producer tag or something?!
I’m going to…..
