this...
Google translation:
TECHNO FESTIVAL IN EUSKADI oriented exclusively to the various alternatives, today's electronic music.
On Saturday, December 4 will be a more interesting festival focused exclusively on the various alternatives, today's electronic music. It will be the second edition of Global Trends, and will be held at the town hall Itzel Gipuzkoa Oiartzun, very close to San Sebastian. The organization is responsible for Kriptonita producers who have worked hard to make this poster: Front 242, Howie B, Junkie XL, Rots Manuva, Plaid, DMX Crew, Christian Vogel, Derrick May, DJ Krush, Reflex Tour All Stars Band Boards Of Canada, DJ Vadim, Terry Lee Brown Jr., Pacou, Aphrodite, 808 State DJ's, DJ Punk Roc, Robert Armani, Dj Kreator, DJ Lex, Chit Chat, Dj T1000 (aka Alan Oldman), Dj Scisorkicks, Scratch Perverts ... The ability to be hosting this festival is about five thousand people, then there will be four different areas in which they conduct their numerous activities, from direct, which will take place from 5 pm to 12 pm until DJ sets that will run from that time until 9 am. These are divided into four styles: techno, house, freestyle and chill-out. The festival will also feature other events, such as continuous projections in all rooms, many booths and various performances. The price is not definitively confirmed, but around 5,000 pesetas. As you can see, this is a good opportunity to take the pulse of the wide range of styles that make up the growing world of techno, and all its avant-garde. Info 948 229 507
I can't find much other information about this so I'm not sure if it's legitimate, however they played at Warp10 one month before this event.

I've never heard anything about BoC playing in Spain, but it's worth investigating.

And indeed, not even a single mention of BoC at all.

It's not clear if they actually played, but it does seemed they were billed. The
concert report from Mondo Sonoro makes it sound like a disaster overall.
The relevant portion (google translated and cleaned up) reads:
While we are accustomed to last-minute cancellations at events like these, what happened at Global Tendencies was a scandal. Too many big names featured on the bill were nowhere to be found (Krush, Howie B, Dee Jay Punk Roc, Boards Of Canada, Mu-ziq, Plaid, Cristian Vogel, Mint Royale, Kriss Needs ...). The consequences were inevitable and chaos broke out.
On the other hand,
this guy seems pretty confident that they actually played -- he is even so precise to say what time it was. He also offers that there was some problem with a flight from London that caused some of the cancellations, including Plaid.

Hi guys, for me it's a bit hard to belive BoC played at 7am, and that Mondosonoro's journalists (or any other press) didn't notice. I've been reading this mag for about 15 years and I can assure you their festival coverages and reviews are quite comprehensive. And they're always clear about what shows they fail to attend, so...
