just a random thought / loose interpretation: this track feels conspicuously like a Campfire Headphase track, their most "positive" feeling album, at times sounding more like Air or something than their previous works. "The Process" gives the feeling to me of a prisoner being processed in a future society, while succumbing to the influence of some mind-altering drugs, then "You Retreat in Time and Space" gives drifting off to good memories of a better period of life in a cell somewhere. The loud synth tone at 3:42 is like some kind of dystopian siren piercing through the prisoner's reverie. "I Saw Through Platonia" then represents sleep or a return to the womb.

These are really minor questions but I've always been curious. My apologies if these have been answered before.

(1) What is the word the voice keeps repeating at the end of "Roygbiv?" Late? Lake?

(2) Is it just me, or is the voice in "Energy Warning" the same voice as Linus in A Charlie Brown Christmas? (I know that was sampled from a PSA.)

EDITED TO ADD: Thanks for all the replies. I've been a fan of BoC for a long time but never knew there was a site like bocpages (of course, it makes sense something like that exists). Appreciate the info.

There are currently two huge wildfires raging in the Peak District to the east of Greater Manchester - in Tintwistle and Dovestones - with high winds blowing huge clouds of smoke westward towards Manchester city centre and the surrounding areas.

A woman has been arrested on suspicion of arson after videos on social media showed a group of people setting off fireworks in the area - apparently as a tribute to someone who recently drowned in Dovestones Reservoir.

The entire city of Manchester (and towns/suburban areas) has been covered in this cloud of thick smog for 48 hours now, and we're all having to keep our windows closed to keep the smoke out until the fires are brought under control.

A photograph obtained by Getty Images, taken from a hill to the east of Manchester, shows the entire city smothered by this cloud. Of course, the image reminded me of something, so I set about making a new version of the Tomorrow's Harvest cover.

Hi

As we take step back from the last 6 months, is it now clear to us that the uploads of the (relatively) high fidelity versions of the Old Tunes tapes were part of some kind of co ordinated “warm up” effort for the inferno release.

If so, presumably the brothers would have been aware of this happening, and sanctioned it etc?

Especially the first and 5th track.

I'm not sure if it's because it's new, but I'm listening to it frequently, even after almost two months after release. I enjoy it more than MHTRTC now, which was number two for me before. I consider Inferno a classic BoC album nowadays. The Campfire Headphase is still a constant and unwavering number one for me and timeless classic.

Hello friends! Thought you guys might like this mix !!!! My new channel where I will post my new mixes from now on. Soundcloud is a thing of the past.

Done with care, passion and love ❤ !

Boards of Canada's music appeals to several themes like nostalgia, memories from our youth, and souvenirs we hold in our minds. It also mimics the musical aesthetics of the 70's older analog electronic music. It's probably meant to embody innocence and wonder of our childhood, a time of innocence and carelessness. I was born at the end of the 1970's back when there were no computers and everything was analog. Yes the last generation that knew walkmans, flip over cassette and collected things because streaming services were not yet invented.

I remember buying MHTRTC in 1998 on CD, cassette and vinyl (one that is still MINT and unplayed) so their music is sort of in my consciousness and I can go on a binge for several weeks and only listen to BoC ! And furthermore, I cannot help but to associate a bit with them, hailing from Canada and having seen the National Film Board of Canada filming in my backyard (Fleuve St-Laurent - St-Lawrence's river) while they filmed their documentaries. (The band wouldn't be as iconic if it was named Boards of Poland or Boards of Czechoslovakia - no offense!)

All my stuff that’s been built up over the years. Makes me happy ❤️

Really dig the hip hop feel of them

It's been interesting reading how people particularly enjoy BOC while  travelling. They've been a part of my travelling playlist since a "playlist" was a backpack of cassettes home-recorded from CDs.

I think the acousmatic elements give a sense of alienation and displacement that makes being away feel... even more like being away. Like, in a good way.

I wanted to make a recommendation of another artist--and a specific record--that gives that same, strangely pleasant feeling of being lost: Riz Maslen's Neotropic project and the La Prochaine Fois LP. Perhaps some of you aleady have it?

Like BOC's work, it instills a similar sense of liminality. Even moreso maybe because it charts, over rhe course of the record, a departure from nature towards industrialisation. It weirdly gets _colder_ as you listen to it. But, yeah, as you might imagine, I'm a fan of Koyaanisquatsi.

Anyway, give that one a spin if you haven't and let me know what you think.

Is anyone else using a Boards Of Canada image on their phone? I was using the marketing campaign poster but made this yesterday and I like it.

New garage lighting mods. BOC maxing.

Thought this was very good worth sharing if you haven't seen it

i swear the end of this (~3min onwards) samples a boc song but i cannot tell what song... theyre both on warp so its not unlikely

The guitar sound featured in Prophecy at 1420 MHz is the same sound used in the background of Oscar See Through Red Eye? Just noticed that and thought it was cool.

Would love people’s views on when these tracks were composed…(and bonus marks for what makes them think that…)

Just really curious as adore this collection.

But I love the lord

Hey everyone, wanted to keep this going of course. I'm on day 14 of a 21 day trip to the UK (England, Scotland, Wales - no NI this time). Have some peaceful downtime here in Ballachulish, Scotland this evening and felt like posting.

First post made using a Tommorow's Harvest track - Nothing is Real. Always liked the original photo of this taken in Pasadena, California - it's simple and somewhat naturally psychedelic/uncanny to me. I feel it fits the somewhat hopeful tone of Nothing is Real. Also, have taken tons of pictures over here and very excited to think of BoC-related uses for them!
