'Reach For The Dead' directed by Neil Krug
For some reason this track hit me when I was outside in the sun with my 2 young sons. Remembering my youth and what it felt like, all these new impressions...and then seeing my sons playing, realising that they were living that very same moment that was already a memory for me....wow...
cool ass comment love this
That's a very cinematic scene you just described. Love it.
your kids are lucky to have a dad with such great taste in music =D
gaaf man!
Well done, there'll always be a place for people like you in here
*I want to extend the deepest thank you to you both, your ambient music holds a very special place in my heart and is a huge source of inspiration*
I hope my songs hold you over for now.
Beethoven, BOC and Radiohead raised.hope you enjoy..

this isn't ambient
@@logimite7174 it is actually
Ohmygosh im so excited rn!!!
To get a heart from them *squeeeeee*
@@MisatoBestWoman It's ok we all fanboy over BOC😄
I don't know why there isn't more Boards of Canada music. It's been just over a decade since Tomorrow's Harvest. I am so grateful for what we do have, though I can't help but be deeply saddened that there hasn't been more from them. Absolutely phenomenal and horribly underrated. They were so ahead of the curve that it's mind-blowing.
It’s even crazier knowing that they have a whole back catalog of 100s of unreleased stuff that may or may not ever see the light of day. Can a band be any more enigmatic?
Try Eyowa
Agreed. What's the holdup?
i wonder this a lot, im especially sad since i discovered them too late to be around for any releases, but i think they have kids now and are in their 50s... i just hope theyre doing okay and havent lost interest in making music at all.
They've been known to take FOREVER to release new albums.
They will release it when it's perfect.
I was born in 1975. Watching this, I can feel the sand in my eyes, taste the salt on my lips. The sting of the sun. I can remember hearing this music when I was a child. Thank you BOC.
Except this album came out in 2013
@@pt8306 I think they meant that it’s nostalgic enough that it feels as if they had already heard this music in their childhood. I’ve gotten the very same sensation from their music since I first heard them.
@@WraithTimid same here, their song Roygbiv sends me back to my early childhood and I can't put my finger on why, but I certainly enjoy it.
Some BoC tracks bring me back to childhood moments and emotions. And it's very interesting that other human souls experience the same!
@@pt8306 thats a woosh from me dawg
It's weird to see a BoC music video that's actually made by BoC.
The video for Dayvan Cowboy was an official video. But, I get what you're saying. They actually filmed some of the footage used in this themselves. Apparently they took a trip through the U.S. at some point prior to either the making.or the release of Tomorrow's Harvest. Some of the footage looks like it was taken near "The Mother Road" or historic rt. 66.
The guy who made this did some unofficial BoC music vids years ago. They approached him to do this “official” vid, but it’s still a fan video in a way.
@@dndlnx Oh fuck is this that guy?! I missed him so much I'm so glad he's still doing that shit, and especially glad he's getting paid for it
Jerry The Obnoxious Mouse. Seriously, Screw Jerry. To be fair, some of 5he fan stuff is probably better,
It's weird to see a BoC music video with some budget.
After more than 10 years the dissonant chord at 4:01 still gets me. Unreal
This track has this uncanny ability to get better and better the more I listen to it. Just completely ethereal
I remember I felt disappointed with this album because everyone else felt disappointed with this album.
Then I decided to shut the fuck up and listen.
Now I'm disappointed with myself.
+SergeantCaptainHat don't be,enjoy the music
+SergeantCaptainHat Yes, I was in the "disappointed" camp too. I have since warmed to a majority of the tracks on the album... There's still a few though...
+SergeantCaptainHat kudos for telling it as it is..most importantly the about face. Personally, this album lives w/ me next to Wish You Here.
+SergeantCaptainHat ...Wish You Were Here ..of course ( always been too quick w/ sending)
+SergeantCaptainHat I was the same, and I preordered the CD. I remember seeing disappointed reviews, which I'm so disappointed in myself for letting that color my first listen-through when it came in the mail. Today, I've listened through it dozens of times and it contains many of my favorite BoC tracks. I don't think music like this can be accurately connected with via only one listen through. And it certainly can't be reviewed by any objective means since its sound can mean so many different things to people.
I've learned from that mistake.
It's fascinating revisiting this video almost 10 years later. In 2013 I was deep into BoC and this was just another great track for me. But listening and watching this now it hit me with new intensity. The final flight straight into the sun got my blood pressure up. These guys created a truly timeless catalog of music. I hope they bring us more some day!
Check out "A warm place" by nine inch nails if you like this one.
Been a while since i watched this. Always surprised by its beauty. When watching this i kinda get a nostalgic sensation.... Kinda feels like trying to remember and long for a past memory and only getting snippets of it covered in a haze of decay from the march of time. .... yeah, i just wroe that cheese 🧀. I felt poetic for the first time in a while. 😂
lol...yeah..keep goin.
This music video touches you in a way that others don't. You look at these abandoned buildings and houses and each one of them has a story that was buried in time. These were places someone at one point called home, and the rest of us can only wonder who was once there and what kind of life they lived before these places became a derelict. Meanwhile, the ending is seemingly bright and surreal, like an ascension into Heaven, as if the whole message is that nothing we build here will last forever and it's only the human spirit that carries on.
good man Joe!
Very nice!
This is one of the major philosophies of life
Spoiler. The human spirit doesn't carry on.
Buried by time and dust
Sometimes you find music that has no real place in time. It's almost like it shouldn't really exist, because it could be placed into any era and it would fit in. This is the kind of music that will never die.
This is My Audio Biography. Outlaw Immortal
I feel the brothers BoC have always lovingly embraced the psychoactive properties of sound. That trademark goes all the way back to Twoism. What keeps me a fan is this constant exploration into the far outposts of human existence where familiarity meets the unknown. They slow you down, like meditation, you start shutting off and then suddenly, you'll hear a wall of complexity just below the surface. Their music is comforting yet deeply troubling, these two worlds somehow found a way to harmonize together through the enigmatic Marcus and Michael. What a joy to have art like this in modern music.
You sound like you need to take a step back and chill with the acid
Brian Gundersen That's a presumptuous statement considering I've never abused psychedelics, in fact not at all. Interesting what once can assume about a person. Do you feel better now?
Evan J
I suggest you to check the following track out:
Cathode - While Making Other Plans
While at that, also check:
Cathode - Basic Assumption
Cathode - Be Red or Yellow
and
Cathode - Dream Feeder.
Very powerful, I believe in a certain sense Cathode even surpasses BoC. I think he understands psychoactive properties of the sound very well, his music evokes similar feelings to BoC but at the same time he is not imitating. That immersion, chest tightness, hopelessness mixed with apathy, that feeling when you coped, accepted your fate, yourself, yes, residue remained, but you embraced it and moved on..
What are your thoughts?
funky3ddy Thanks for the suggestions, will let you know.
This is perfect . Kudos
This mood feels extremely prescient in 2020. We're entering a new phase of history.
Welcome to the end

A wonderful video about death & the journey of the spirit through the window of the mind to the timeless realms beyond...
How much weed did you smoke before writing this?
eblb1ful2 alot
eblb1ful2 none at all. I'm well acquainted with metaphysics & mental/spiritual experiences.
Not edgy at all. Hes only telling you how it is. You shouldnt be too quick to jump to conclusions.
skrapyard444 you dont know, i dont know. nobody knows.
I cannot rid my obsession with this song. And I cannot explain why I love it so much.
Hello from the future. The reason you love the song so much is that it's a masterpiece of subtle layering and progression that manages to convey complex emotions with no words other than the title.
Ive seriously have listened to this song between 5-10,000 times since i heard it
It's fantastic how BoC do that, even after already creating so many songs which leave a similar feeling. And this comment was 6 years ago, I imagine you still feel the same now?!
Because it's a good song
It is the sound of something beyond humanity. Scary but interesting at the same time.
I’m so glad that in my lifetime Boards of Canada are on this planet with me.The best musical pioneers EVER.FACT
I've been feeling a second wave of heavy depression lately. This song. These images. I don't know what it is but it just makes me want to break down and cry. It just evokes that feeling of absolute loneliness, a vast expansive world full of life and color. And I just can't find a purpose in it. I'm like these buildings. Once just filled with potential and life, then one day it all just went away. Now I just sit so desolate and devoid of anything inside. Just waiting. Just watching.
It works so well for that purpose. Had a similar sensation after a very stressful and oppresive day; and I remember biking home to this track, with a mixture of crying and banging my head. So intense and so good.
Hope you're doing well, though. And getting sweet katharsis from music like this.
embrace the nihilism
@@strongmoon1 this is what is wrong with the information age, overshadowing the soul with simple bits of information, mans longing for purpose and reason filled with useless information seemingly pointing to the devoidness of purpose in life. Believing in the uselessness and meaninglessness percieved in life. Just as bad as religious folks believing in the life leading to the divine emergence of the soul transposed into some heavenly realm of their greatest imaginings. Incorrect or misunderstood information and reasonably correct information also misunderstood leading to preconceptions of meaning in the love and life of god or the meaninglessness of this eternal now stretching on forever, living and dying for no reason at all when after all, time will destroy completely all that we are and ever could be, yes?
There's a term for people with this new age nihilism.. a doomer. It is an ailment born of the age of reason. Logic is the same as belief when it gives you information about something that satisfies you into either purpose or no-purpose.
Information with the belief that you have understood the world thru it's ends, from a reasonable standpoint only, it is enough. But what satisfies only the intellect leaves the emotional side of you empty and vice versa.. how can you not see that balance is key here. Harmony creates beauty in the meaningless moments of life. They can be lived fully, lived gracefully as they are, as you are. Beyond ur conditioning try to see the world. No information or memory or imagination. Just see it as it is. If you can do this your nihilism and beliefs will be transcended by the Reality, Truth is not meaningless nor does it have any meaning, it is beyond your concepts, it is who you are and you need to find out just that, the answer to who you are becomes your own end in itself, a new beginning in the end of egoic identity. Enter the void you worship and see what this void truly is you percieve as so bleak and meaningless
Stop the reason by seeing it is a tool for knowing only the practical, survival aspect of life. Beyond reason, beyond any purpose man can invent in his tiny little head, life is beyond that. Purpose is a means to an end. Life is boundless, it doesn't care to satisfy you limited purpose, it will fill all purpose and stand asking for more, you cannot exhaust life or kill it with a purpose. Get to know life as you did as a child before your memories and beliefs and thoughts and imaginings took you out of life's experience and into your fantasy world. Stop trying to end life with one purpose or meaning. It is forever beyond the scope of your dreams and that is its timelessness is its divine beauty
TheKromusDevice sorry dude there’s plenty of uplifting boards tunes and other music out there for that matter. If I was feeling down there’s no way I’d be listening to this heavy going shit. Use ur head, if it makes u feel down listen to something else. I fact I was just checking it out and it was a bit too much for me, I’ll pass on this I think.
Boards of Canada music has such a sad, post-apocalyptic or even Nostalgic sort of feeling. I love it.
That 2:49 moment
is one of the most satisfying drop in music,
all genres considered.
So rarely can an arpeggiating synthline be as emotional as in this piece. Am in awe.
3:26
pretty mediocre compared to their other stuff
@@euphorbia8106 I thought the same thing at first too but I think this is the wrong mindset. It's not meant to be like their other stuff. It's something much more mechanical, sinister, foreboding and depressing. Which is the point. It's a warning about where the world is heading, the absolute most bleak outcome. I understand not liking it based on personal preference with the sound choices, but this deserves to be up there with the rest of the bands albums. The intricacy, thought and emotion that Boards of Canada is known for is still present, but this time it has a new face. An entirely new feel. And it's not like the band is known for having one consistent sound. In a Beautiful Place Out in The Country sounds nothing like Geogaddi. Random 35 Tracks Tape doesnt sound all that much like The Campfire Headphase. It's just a new style for the duo and for me personally it works spectacularly, but I still respect your opinion.
Yeah, it sounds like an Alias song from 2005.
Still makes me emotional. Just remembering when this came out, Tomorrow's Harvest was announced, and it had been so long, and the track was so beautiful... I'm so ready for that feeling again. We all are, especially given everything that's happened and is going on these days. Please come back. We love you.
This band is the most creative and brillant i have ever heard.
I keep listening to their tracks over and over and never get tired of it.
They are getting better and better on every LP.
Tomorrow's Harvest is amazingly beautiful, keep doing masterpieces guys!
a friend introduced me to boards of canada back in 2021 through societas x tape, 2 years later ive recently turned 16 and have been enjoying their music ever since. thanks for making good music yall
There is always something that connects with your brain when you you hear any BoC sound. First it's perfect in your ears and then your brain gives you the thoughts and feelings. For me BoC is the sound of my life and I'm so lucky to be alive to hear them for so many years now ❤
Please come back guys
What the hell do you mean by that son?
i miss them
The Confessor
And why?
Because their music is amazing and we havent heard from them for a while

8 years pause between 2 big releases. Means 2021 comes another album. So what's to worry man?
Aphex Twin has bigger pauses.
I would love to see a documentary on how this was shot - the location scouting, the equipment, the editing, it's all a rich tapestry that comes together so well
Feels more real than ever…
HA you have feelings? I sure don't.
The sound of the slow decay of a failed species... beautiful and dark. So good
This song popped up on my playlist whilst driving through the Mojave desert to Vegas. Perfect song for those empty desert roads.
This is probably the only music vid I've seen that perfectly matches my image(s) of the song. They nailed it with this.
all the boards of canada tracks have matching videos

Fair enough.
***** CHECK OUT ALL THARE VIDS THARE ALL AUTHENTIC
This probably hits harder in 2021 than it did when it was released... I know it does for me. We’re beginning to reap Tomorrow’s Harvest. Here in Seattle the skyline is covered in smoke and looks just like the cover of this record... eerily prescient.
true when this album first came out I didn't think much of it compared to their other albums. Now it's my favorite, it aged like fine red wine. They predicted how bad things were going to get.

@@GreenToast01 it's more than that
@@serraramayfield9230 I'm not a thick anti-vaxxer, I just think people need to be calm through tough times instead of making a drama or panicking
@@GreenToast01 it relates to a comment Mike said: "It is about an inevitable stage that lies in front of us".
It's mad how after so many years of eerie, unsettling tracks, this one freaks me out as much as anything they've ever done. Goosebumps, every time. I really hope BoC stay pretty much the same as ever when they bring their next album out. More BoC, more of the same, is what's required!
Can not get enough of this.
kerballllll
Nassault Same. I've replayed this song so many times in the past year.
Nassault agreed. there's nothing like boc. there's something quite transcendent and eternal about them and their unique and amazing alien style. very enigmatic.
I discovered it a few weeks ago. It haunts me now. I play other music, then I hear this one, in my mind, overpowering the other music, and I have to listen to it again.
Gorgeously sad, haunting song. No words do it justice.
Then look at this !! ua-cam.com/video/mEQz9c1X2iA/v-deo.html
3:46: this is the moment you see God and realize he is real, all your lively problems and depression is worthless now, and you smile and cry in humble appreciation of how merciful He is
This song was played to me over and over again in the darkest pit of my soul in a perpetual dark night of the soul I had almost abandoned myself there .....until this melodic rythm swept through like a mechanical arm angelic light repairing me nerves and synapses until I could see the light within myself to help me climb and ascend my darkness I'm still climbing
RISE ABOVE THE Terra wave To Celestial Planes.
2 infinity ♾️ and Beyond
I absolutely love the scenery in this music video, it really captures the essence of the Tomorrow's Harvest album
Everytime I listen to any song from this album I always feel like I'm driving by a dessert or I'm being chased by something in a weird and abandoned version of New York.
Even before I got in to BOC, I always liked that feeling of being alone in a completely desolate place. Everytime my family and I are going on a trip, we always pass by these empty areas where there are just destroyed cars, tumbleweeds, and random abandoned houses (kind of like this video) and the whole time whilst looking at these places I just imagine myself being there all alone, just me and my thoughts, just enjoying life for once.
That flying sequence is one of the most intense audiovisual experiences I've ever had, with or without drukqs
*checks date -- approx 6 months ago from October 16th*
Did... did you write this comment on Avril 14th? 😮
It's the 90 deg rotate that fucks with my head....
Fr, the title and the rest of the video when considered with the ending feels like there's some hidden narrative here
I think Tomorrow's Harvest is their most ambitious and fully realized album. It has aged very well.
You are totally right ! It’s a consecration album, pure perfection. I Hope To hear their new album soon 🙂
Yeah. Can't believe it's nearly ten years old already. I remember getting the email from the label informing of its imminent release and everybody went bonkers and that's coz it was over five years since the previous album. We are overdue for another, surely!
I still haven't unwrapped the vinyl version of this album I bought at the time.
@@HyperBiker Five? You mean eight. Haha.
I agree. It's basically an OST for a film that doesn't exist.
I remember when this was released, it was a sweltering summer day in May and it perfectly captured the feel of the sun on my skin in audio form.
their music saved my life.
Same
Ok drama queen
Ils aussi sauvé la mienne. Leurs albums font partie de moi. Je les connais par cœur, chaque pièce, chaque note. Je ne m’en remettrais pas si je devais m’en passer. Merci d’exister 🎶🎶🎶🥰
This track exudes supreme eminence. It is simply Godlike.
godl̶i̶k̶e̶
When I listen to this I get visions. I see my daughter in the sand, as the sands slip through her small fingers, her sunkissed skin staring into the sunset as it sets. She grasps the sand but it’s inevitable and it slips through her fingers. She looks into the light trying to stop the sun from setting trying to hold on to it, but it’s impossible… it’s all fleeting, her youth, her life, she tries to grasp it but it’s ever escaping her little hands…
I can't say why, but this track bring me back to my childhood, in the first half of the 2000's... There is something so nostalgic about it.
Whenever something is really oppresive; a mixture of stress and sadness, this track truly speaks to me. Like a weird mix between being melancholic and shedding tears, being serious and sinister and banging your head because the flow is so strong. One of their best works for sure.
It’s been 7 years, i want them back :( Miss you guys.
I remember playing outside our house as a kid during summer time. We lived on the outskirts of town, surrounded by vineyards and orchards. Once in a while you would hear a droning sound from people mowing their lawns and meadows in the evening. That droning sound in the beginning sounds exactly the same and immediately teleports me to that time and place :)
One of the greatest, most unique bands of all time. I wouldn't still be creating and performing music if it weren't for them. Fact.
10 years old. Happy birthday Reach for the dead
For a Canadian having grown up listening to soundtracks of projects produced by the NFBC(National Film Board of Canada) BOC's music becomes a psyche infiltrating experience reaching into the recesses of childhood memory. Even humorous when I consider how much disdane and indifference most of my friends and myself directed at any Canadian film or television production mostly due to the massive influence of media from our neighbour to the south.
this video came up to me as a yt suggestion the very same day my dad passed away. It absolutely recreates the atmosphere of what I felt during his lasts minutes. masterpiece of art
I felt the exact same vibe when I saw it, except it was for my sweet mother... Not only it captured the atmospheres and the emotions, but also it captured the memories and the pictures of a lifetime, crystallizing every breath, every breeze, every sunbeam, every touch, every kiss, every sensation, every tear, every laughter, every dream... This is beyond art! Blessings + best wishes from Fr
The music video is like an extra instrument to this song. The visuals genuinely enhance the song, which seems rare for music videos these days.
This song is so empty, yet bring so many emotions and memories. This video seems like to be shoted at the lost and abondoned, Slab City, in the desert of California.
My dad used to take us to go check out abandoned ghost towns in the deserts of Utah. I had the same feeling hearing this track before ever seeing this video. It's all a perfect match. Fantastic video for this song!
I was reading an interview about the recording and conception for the album Tomorrows Harvest, and I remember them saying it was about an "inevitable stage that lies in front of us." Now I read all these news articles about NASA predicting societies collapse in the next couple of decades, and I'm beginning to think that this is what the album is about. Perhaps I'm looking into it too much, but if it happens, this will be my apocalypse soundtrack.
Whether or not it will happen is still conjecture. It is rare (I feel) in the post-industrial world for humanity not to have an apocalyptic view into their own horizon. The current as I see in what medias I've payed attention to for decades would support that. Many believe that there is some undercurrent of power influencing destiny into an inevitable suffering of the many. As someone who has witnessed a different sort of "power," I feel that fear only breeds more fear. Fear only gives energy to people who are even more afraid; enough so to feel that the only way to function is to attempt to "control" their surroundings from below the waist. I personally feel that BoC is interpreting that fear and more broadly, interpreting the paradigm shift we are all now in. Destination unknown yet clearly out of our archaic infancy one way or another. What you see in the desert is a shedding of skin and what lies ahead could be a new enlightenment. The most powerful moment for me is when the national geographic border flashes and the horizon becomes "abstractly" vertical. In my view, this is where we begin to understand our own history and what we truly are. We begin to ourselves as one and looking our creators (the stars) as though we were looking in the mirror. This is my interpretation for what it is worth.
They also clarified that it wasn't necessarily apocalyptic and that in some ways the changes will be positive. I think part of what they're hinting at is that people will have to learn to live with the world on a scale and in a way that is sustainable. That ultimately we will be forced to do so, that that is the inevitably that they speak of. People will have to relearn how to grow their own food, home aquaculture, raising small animals. We will all have to learn to work together if we want to survive. There is still so much positive potential in people. Just think if instead of bickering with other countries we learned to work together what we could accomplish.
This is the sort of thing that naturally starts to fill the void left behind by the industrial, alternative, and techno rock I grew up with. Post rock is a very fitting name for it. There's finality in a way that lacks reason or rhyme, sad but somehow comforting too. No message or motto, no passion or pride, just sound. Just the sound of no sound.
Endymion766 Perfect explanation
But the sound of no sound is silence if it even could be called a sound. Is the absence of sound still sound? Like when a tree falls when no one is around, does it still make a sound? The answer is yes even though we don't hear it. So because we hear no sound doesn't mean there isn't. The sound of silence is...boards of Canada.
So refreshing to see composers in total control of their work.
Exactly!
This one has evolved into an absolute BoC classic. It was amazing at the time, but with more time, it's become even greater.
I agree. It's so cathartic. Might be one of my favorite tracks ever.
One of the greatest music video endings of all time.
I feel that through these musical adventures, Boards has brought together people of like frequencies as with all musicians. Most of their tracks evoke a connection to natural systems. Along with this current life, it also feels like we all may have lived a past or future lifetime within the same planetary system outside of Earth at one time or another.

OH_I _Will what?
@@Oh_I_Will ok coomer
I once fell asleep while listening to it. Gave me the strangest dreams.
It is my favourite one, I don't know but for me it has an edge over MHTRTC or Geogaddi
I frequently find myself wanting to hear this song.
I guess Marcus and Michael realized Tomorrow's Harvest was everything they aimed to accomplish with a BoC album, and there's no point in releasing anything after it. It's a rare sensibility and privilege, to know the right time to step away from the spotlight. If it so happens to be, I'm perfectly happy with their last work.
no please no! :(
:(
They'll do another album or e.p. chill
@@lena-Ramone Hopefully, but at this point that's just pure guess work
@@affalaffaa thought they released mix tapes and remixes under the name Hell interface.. I guess these can get us through the drought
some of the most creative music in history period.
I can watch and listen to this track over and over again. The music and visuals provide a perfect marriage.
Their soundscape is so engaging. At first listen, it almost seems "parochial" or minimal in ways. Once the nuances and true scope unfold, it becomes a beautiful and complex world. The Bros are simply visionary😆
I have to come and listen to this song every once in a while to get my fix. I love this song and how it makes me feel so welled up with emotion and nostalgia. I always envision this as when a person is dying and they start to see and feel all this love and peace as they enter heaven and their soul is released.
the most important duo in the history of electronic music. this release seems to be more song structured over sound collages. 8 years is way to long to hear from the
genius that are the Boards!
this is the most beautiful thing i have ever seen
I'm a BoC fan since early 2000s when I was going to high school. Two days ago, I've released a BoC "In the Annexe" drum cover on my page dedicated to this greatest band! You guys made my teen years much brighter with your music, it is like a friendly conversation through the songs and the feelings in them. Thank you for all!
This song literally feels like reaching out for something that you know you will never get to and it brings you to pieces.

10 years ago today!!
Thanks for changing my life's dedication to family and music long time ago.
Video reminds me of driving on New Mexico and Arizona's Interstate 10 and listening to previous BOC albums. So surreal and beautiful.
Throughout my life, I have always had a need to take what was in my head and turn it into reality.
I have used many mediums since my childhood to do just that. Drawings, comics, nick nacks created from junk and hardware, music, electronics, movies and so on.
I wanted to be everything. I wanted to be an artist, animator, musician, film director, all at the same time.
Years have passed and interests have come and gone, but one medium still remains at my peak of interest, and that is video games.
This seeming mix of all mediums combined into a single one. This, "final frontier" of the human experience.
For these past couple of years, I have strove to become a game developer. I have tinkered in various game engines, pondered in deep thought of game concepts and game mechanics, stories, and ideas.
I am now working in a small indie dev team, trying to achieve...something.
We may be small and inexperienced, but we will get somewhere.
As for me, what I am wanting to achieve is something I have to find out myself.
I'm a descent artist at heart, I'm terrible at programming and I have hard times wrapping my head around it. I feel I'm not as much as an experienced gamer compared to everyone else, I have a huge lack of self esteem and respect for myself and my work.
There are people my age right here, right now, doing something great.
This industry is huge, its competitive, any many are wanting to tap into it.
I may be flawed, but I will not stop to strive for what I want to do.
Someday, I will make the games I want to make, tell the stories I want to tell, give the messages to those out there, and give an experience to many and all.
And in one of those games, I want this song in it.
Mark my words, when I get there, I will fly myself to Scotland, or where ever they may live, and ask the Sandison Brothers personally, if I can use their song.
I. Will. Have this song in the credit sequence of one of my dream games, if not my best work.
Don't view me as someone with a huge ego, but someone who just simply wants to take what is in their head,
and make it happen.
+Nutritious Bag Circles do your shit bro
top kek
+Nutritious Bag Circles You be you, man.
+Nutritious Bag Circles Well, I know there are alot of naysayers and people who would like to convince us we can't do something, but yours is the attitude that succeeds. As long as I am working towards my goals, in any fashion, I am doing more than many dreamers ever do, even if I find out I am unable, somehow, to achieve them as originally conceived. I don;t care so much if what results is different from the attempted, as all contributes to the whole. Many times these are the very limitations that help define the message or voice of the piece. Happy accidents, so to speak. I am thrilled by being involved with creativity in any capacity and love the process, the learning that comes from doing, from making a thing of beauty or devotion. So, even though I don't game, I am excited for you and your future efforts. Creative visualization and perseverance are key. Remember, faith can work miracles! See Matthew 21:21-22. "...but even if you say to this mountain 'Be taken up and thrown into the sea', it will happen." And I don;t feel you are a giant egotist or a self-important operator. Sounds more like someone who is trying to do the great things you imagine and is willing to share your dream with others, both with the work aspect and the world in general. So, I always try to remember that all my talents and abilities come from something much bigger and more capable than I am 'alone'. Even if that thing is just the higher thought part of your own brain, or the great works of the masters from which we have inherited templates of art and technique, IT is not about the personal ego, in the end. Talent must always reckon with, one way or another, the temptation to congratulate itself on all IT has done, but this will lead, inevitably to stagnation and mechanical, less inspired and inspiring creations. I find it is always advisable to monitor one's motivations as you go, which is something you appear to be about. Best wishes and my 'faith power' now includes your mission...I believe we can! Anyway, 'give an experience to many and all.' my brother! That is my goal, too, to find a way to reach others with my art, with my life and what I have learned or witnessed as inspirational to me, or for others I have known, loved and respected. How I got through some of the rough patches, and how to utilize the same, and what the heck a person might feel about them before, during and after. Or, how to trick yourself into believing the 'impossible' is as simple as breathing in and out, then manifesting that for/in/to reality. And, I feel certain that, despite a similar incorrect poor self-assessment of my work and it's 'worth', which is also a form of ego,( I am the ONE who isn't good enough, I have an embarrassment about MY product or work, instead of letting the selfless genius, inherent to living outside such limiting mental constructs, do it's thing) others could benefit from my take on the World and it's mysteries. Ok, then thanks for your sharing, sorry if I went on a bit, I am just a little up and starved for positive thoughts and outlooks. Peace NBC. By the way, what does you name mean or reference?
+Kevin Roberts My name is a long story :) Thank you for your wonderful response
almost like pink floyd, how these guys tap into the slower part of mind and caress it.
Jason Lipp Haha, it's a testament to the greatness and originality of Pink Floyd that whenever anybody makes music that makes them feel the same way they bring up Pink Floyd. We have a lot to thank Roger Waters for.
The doctrine of the Three Suns (Chinese: 三阳; pinyin: sānyáng) or three stages of the end-time (Chinese: 三期末劫; pinyin: sānqímòjié), or Three Ages, is a teleological and eschatological doctrine found in some Chinese salvationist religions and schools of Confucianism.
As i can say from my perspective, this music applies to me because i like the process of thinking and be reflective about myself. It has more to do with my personality and the way i communicate and handle emotions. Music from artists like BoC support this kind of personality by creating the right environment. Missing lyrics let you decide what you make out of a song and what kind of meaning lays within it. A famous quote may say that a picture tells more than a thousand words, but so does sound!
Years ago someone on here made a negative comment about this track and I wish I could forget it because as far as I'm concerned this is a haunting masterpiece
I found out about BOC in 07 and have loved them dearly since.
This album came out in my last year of high school (I'm 20 now) and I remember being on 4chan stalking all the threads on /mu/ hyping up Tomorrows Harvest. I honestly was gonna shit my pants, it was such an exciting time with all the ARG elements they included to hype the release. Just the fact that they were gone for so long and then suddenly dropped all these weird messages about tomorrows harvest.
Anyways, I went on my graduation trip to Cuba a month later, and I downloaded it onto my phone. Every time I listen to Tomorrows Harvest I get such nostalgia of my trip, but also all the memories and experiences I shared with my peers that year.
Not just that, but all their albums, especially Geogaddi and Campfire headphase, the music all has such strong emotional connections to me, I get flooded with memories and good feelings going back to seventh grade when I first found out about them.
I got my BOC logo tattoo last year with a moment of clarity quote and am super excited to get the Hexagon design tattoo'd eventually :D They are actually amazing.
Fucking righteous!
+marzipin Thats great that they can effect you in such a way :)
+marzipin I just turned 25 and I've been listening to them since 05, I know exactly what you mean. BoC has played a soundtrack through my life for many years.. I remember a warm, clear, summer night around 11 years ago. The wind was blowing all around me while I was sitting by myself, on a dock, in a lake & listening to June 9th over and over on a disc man... intense, great memories..
this is awesome bro.
Can you upload any images of yours tattoo?
Real change and revolution requires talking above all else, changing someone's life through discussion of ideas. The best way to do this is to identify anyone that is too broken to look at depth for even a minutes and move on to someone that can be saved.
After the person dies, it aimlessly wanders the earth finding only empty and desolate places.
What was once full of life is now a former shadow of itself, surreal, unreal.
The light lures now and then, but it resists.
Eventually the soul decides to let go of life, floats over space and time, finally going into the light and meeting the trinity..
emp68 I think I’m dead
This is an infinite Sun and melancholy at the same time. And this is amazingly beautiful. Thank you!
This is my music.i hope you enjoy...

Honestly my favorite song by them. Absolutely harrowing but equally beautiful. A lot of my fav tracks of theirs are from Tomorrow's Harvest. So damn cinematic
Les larmes aux yeux, la gorge nouée... une impression de fin des temps. La pièce la plus bouleversante de l'histoire de la musique depuis Lasciatemi morire, de Monteverdi. C'est dire !
The climax of this song makes me hysterical. I almost cried
Same it's so cathartic
Grow some balls
Fucking pussy.
Troll bait...get the “F” out of hear with that crap
@@dmc431 There's having too much time on your hands, and then there's... whatever you guys are doing
Tomorrow's Harvest is here...
It's only a matter of time
Welp, this totally made me cry.
10 years!
Yeah thanks to Simon & Martina from EYK for bringing this to the nasties who has no idea how great this music is! Im really glad i found this. So... awesome.
I've been studying this video for inspiration for a little project of my own. It suits the song so well; I could watch it over and over just like I could listen to the song over and over. I love BoC!
I love B lue O yster C ult too ! :-D And this BoC is very good too ! :-)
martin huba Biscuits over cheese?
BIackMoonCGI loooool
Something about this music puts me on edge... I like it but it makes me uneasy for some reason
same
+Glokib It's dark and gritty, I love it
Course me too.. I think their last album it has many density and deep energies which I really don't think are necessary from light… honestly …
+Glokib
Yeah, it's because this is even more depressing and sinister than usual AE or BOC records.
Definitly worth to know.
It is called "reach for the dead". It is a haunting, lonely and sad song, but beautiful.
My mother introduced me to this band a couple years ago and now it’s one of my favorites😊
Best music for programming :)
301 people still think inside the box
Not anymore brother...
BoC opened up a new world of music for me. BoC for life
never herd of BOC until several years ago...the one track I had on a compilation CD of 'chillout' kept going though my head when I ws out sailing one day...real overcast moody sky and some pretty strong winds. Funny how such music just 'fits' that time and memory:)
My mom died in March. This song goes a long way towards describing my personal feelings... no "woo"... just faded and memories full of raspy noise.
PopsGribs I really don't have much to say about this, but If it makes you feel any better, I know the pain of having your parents die. My mother died 3 years ago. But I've been able to move on. I wish you the best of luck in moving on too.
+PopsGribs
Great track, along with the entire album. I think I like it even more than their older stuff.
Heard this track for the first time today ,wow I had it on repeat 🔥 love it
935 dislikes? Sheesh. People have such rough days that they feel better disliking talent because they don't have it.
