BoC Kiddos

[North by North]

My 9-year old son rocks BoC hoodies and t-shirts. Loves Aquarius, Dawn Chorus, Echus, etc. And just recently overheard Naraka, and said is that Boards of Canada? And 2 days later, said what was the name of that song where they chant at the end, it’s awesome.

Just curious if anyone else has little ones down with the BoC.


Mods delete if this is dumb.

Mine will be, but they aren't going to exist for another 5-7 years.

My 1 year old daughter has been dancing to Inferno.

My partner bought our son a tiny bootlegged Boards t shirt off Vinted - still a couple of years before it'll fit him but it'll be worth the wait

He's been hearing a lot of Inferno so well on the way to being fully inboctrinated.

My daughter is 14 now, but when she was very small she used to ask me to play 'The seagull song'.

Happy Cycling again sweetie? You got it.

An aside, but how the hell are our kids 14?!

Eldest is off to a party tonight WITH BEERS.

My 12 y/o has given Inferno a "this is pretty good", which is very high praise.

Although my 17 year old son has been brought up listening to all sorts of music, particularly electronic music and, of course, BoC. I regret to say that he doesn’t listen to BoC. He prefers pop music. Fortunately, he is interested in my passion with BoC and Twoism, and did ask me with genuine interest about the progress being made during the campaign. He also thinks it’s cool that I run twoism.org


@ North by North: It’s certainly not dumb, it’s an interesting one. It makes a nice change to talk about the new generation of BoC fans. Fun fact: the music reminds most of us of our childhood. That’ll be true for the kids as well one day, but they actually heard it when they were growing up.

Funny, when I first got into BOC in 2009 or so I tried to get my son, then 5, interested in them. He was mildly interested but has since got into various metal sub-genres and is now in a band at the age of 22. He's a good guitarist, too.

So I suppose it sort-of worked.
