One of the most beautiful experiences I've ever had is being sat on the beach at 1 in the morning listening to this. Not a single soul there except for me. Felt like I might as well have been the last person on earth. Chilling, yet oddly comforting.
For me, this song distinctly reminds of a time I was out jogging just before sunrise in my home town. It was probably 15 degrees F outside, but there was absolutely no wind so it wasn't too cold to stop for a moment. There was a few inches of snow on the ground and there wasn't a cloud in the sky. I stopped and listened to this song overlooking a frozen lake and it was like time was standing still.
@@gabrielreinke8216 isn't music a beautiful thing? I've had similar almost life changing experiences listening to this song and others, it almost makes you feel like you're completely in control, all is well or good at least, and you can really think on a musical backdrop like this. One of the most thoughtful comments I've ever seen posted on a UA-cam video. Thank you.
Pilot's smoking, co-pilot's topping off a scotch and water and the com guy is reading the paper. While they casually enjoy an intentional engine stall at 30k feet. Yeah, it's the 50's.
Whenever I stumble upon Boards Of Canada songs on youtube, they always seem to be accompanied by old archive footage from the mid-late 20th century....this may just be the best audio-visual combination ever created.
I'd like to think these old guys are still alive in an alternate universe, forever flying the skies in their cool Corsair and joking around with each other.
Probably listened to this a thousand times over the years and is quite simply the most captivating n emotional record I've ever heard, nothing really comes close in terms of those haunting, but also uplifting chords ...and that video...how on earth can any film clip ever be any better for this than this.....
I feel there's a beautiful contrast with Ready Lets Go... there's something gentle and infantile about the opening, like a confused and vulnerable child (in musical form) opening its weakling wings before the listener, unaware of the trials that await it. the closing track is so full of purpose and clarity in that purpose; an endless ascension beyond earthly fear.
You ever rarely get that feeling where listening to a track brings you such an emotional flow of chills, it's almost too much to bear? I just got that.
Still one of my favorite tracks after all these years. What always astounded me about this one was that it sounds like "ambient music," but it also sounds like a distant plane flying overhead on a hot summer afternoon while you're lying on a blanket and looking up at the clouds. Like it literally sounds like someone said "You know that sound planes make when they're flying over you in the distance? Let's turn that into music."
This was the first Boards of Canada song I ever heard; I remember being about 12 or 13 flipping through the music channels on the satellite and then I came to this. I didn't know what it was or who made it but it was beautiful, so intense, so different than anything I could ever imagine... years later and I'm still in awe.
This track is truly the most beautiful thing I've ever heard. I don't even have words to describe how it makes me feel.. I owe so much to this track and this album (and almost everything that BOC has ever done), it really changed the way I perceive music and some other things about life. In my opinion this album is the peak of thought-provoking and evocative music; after years I've never heard something as life changing as this album when it comes to music. In fact, no other artist has had such impact in my life with their music like the Sandison Brothers (only Aphex comes close in my repertory). Their music is truly unique.
Indeed. Once you understand their music it really captivates you like no other. They even helped me through rough times with their music, specially this album and all of their Old Tunes tapes (if you haven't listened to them yet then I recommend you their A Few Old Tunes tape, some of their most memorable tunes are in this tape like 5.9.78, Spectrum, Skimming Stones and some other tracks) and I'll always be grateful to them for that. I'm probably overreacting with this statement but I legit think that I wouldn't be the same person right now if it wasn't for some of their music. I Haven't found yet something as evocative as their music and I pretty much listen to a lot of other genres but still.. they're my top favorite artists.
DaftPunkFan43v3r not an overreaction at all; the power of music can do that to people. There is definitely that ethereal feeling when listening to BOC, their music seems to capture the human psyche. Thanks for the recommendations, I'll check them out. I've only really listened to Tomorrow's Harvest and Geogaddi extensively, you always pick up little things on their tracks with repeated listens. I'm just so glad I found them.
Alternatively, as a commentor suggested this sounds a slowed down and sampled and tweaked version of, "To Here Knows When" , "I Only Said", by My Bloody Valentine.
There’s a reason I feel music like this resonates with people so strongly despite being so simple, and that’s because of the drone effect. If you listen to most tribal music, no matter where on earth is was made there’s a good likelihood that there will be a droning note underlying it. That’s what things like bagpipes, didgeridoos, throat singers, chanting, etc have such a visceral, spiritual feel to them, there’s always an underlying drone note that elevates them in the human psyche.
listening to this evokes memories of being young and lying out on the grass in the summer, when the days were endless, just silence, the birds tweeting and the noise of a plane taking off from nearby glasgow airport. To create this imagery, nostalgia and atmosphere and compress it into one song is nothing short of genius.
This sounds like death in space; amongst foreign constellations, far from the bones of your ancestors and mother Gaia herself... your exploration days have finally come to an end. In the cold darkness of space, egalitarian in its silent hostility to life, your mortal form returns to the cosmic dust from whence it came. Matter is preserved, the cycle complete. We hope you enjoyed your time here with us.
This movie was done with Arthur Godfrey, the plane's pilot, as the host. He was a major TV star in the 1950s, extremely popular and trusted, and the airline used him to get people comfortable with flying. It helped that he was also a licensed private pilot.
It’s early afternoon. Today is my birthday, I am 24 years old. I have done nothing but lay in bed all day. I’m not happy or sad today but this song made me feel something I can’t describe.
For me this song evokes feelings of emergence, awakening, and conclusion...A suburban family opening the bomb shelter door after ages underground solemnly looking out upon the barren wasteland that was once their home...
Yeah. For me depression paradoxically always carries with it the seeds of transcendence. Whether that transcendence takes the form of physical suicide or egoic suicide is up to each individual to find out. May all beings find the latter.
This is one of their best ever. How the f&^% do they do it??? The vid is hilarious too: three engines out and the pilots are mugging for the camera, lighting up a smoke... "Say, Sammy, when I'm about to crash and burn, there's nothing like the smooth, refreshing taste of a Pall Mall, don't you think?" "That's right, Captain Bob! And the fact that they're filter-free means you don't miss any of that rich, Pall Mall flavor! Now, what say we set 'er down in that cow pasture over there??"
And to think they actually prefer these tracks to their more longer and official sounding tracks. And to think this album could've been longer but they insisted on the 66:06 running length. And to think they only chose 23 of the 90 tracks they made for this album. And to think never in our lifetime will we get to hear them.
At the dusk of time, I, a small dot reached the edge. I have re-ached the place wheere the line blurs, werhe the imposible is possi-sible. This is the place where everything exists, where time is not time, where space is not space. There is beaty, more than the eye can hold; all the good and bad, beautiful and hideous, serene and sinister coexist, suspended in nothing and everything; you may not see one, for one is all. I am pleased to advanced thus far, but I know I can not go further. For matter of mortal material like me and the ship I'm in can not grasp such concept, they do not possess the power, they do not posess the processing to distinguish true and fake, self and others. The cosmos is unstable, and so are we now. We're becoming one, we're becoming all. Because, one and all has no memory of self and others. All that exist in H$#e that (as a )#rpo(se #$ the memory remaining on us mortals; and that is
The closest thing BoC has done to a My Bloody Valentine song, I’d argue with the drone-ish sound. Absolutely stunning music, great to hear on CD, streaming, and vinyl altogether.
This sounds like the theme of someone who is kind and selfless, but gets nothing in return and is burning up on the inside. They are exhausted from life and in need of respite or an escape.
Thanks for getting back so openly and without getting upset! I think the choice of the input is perfect, as the fifties seems to represent the height of appearing respectable and going with the flow.... So the pilot is a humourous nutter, harmless like his era, which is good. Arent the cloud shots sublime though? Well chosen mate. PS Try using Vista movie maker. You can really do some BOC strange effects on your source film. W 7 has useless movie maker. BOC is made to be seen not heard. lol.
It's crazy how much technology has advanced from the first airplane, to when the airplane in this video was manufactured, even to now. Especially with the sounds that boc can create, it's such a surreal, simulating, and vivid experience listening to them while experiencing life itself
i listened to this hoping that something in it would change, when it ended - that's when i fell in love with it - i realized that it was perfect the way it is.
When you accept your death and everything of your life flashes before your eyes before you collapse!! But it's never over as your spark lives on good or bad!!!
this song makes me feel that I can feel the pain of the world to mourn it and take it away from us and be happy for ever after(sorry for the bad english,just in case)
It makes me think of a ship captain hundreds of years ago, alone at sea on his vessel, watching the sun rise from across the water... The world hadn't been discovered yet and mystery was still out there. Magic existed for a time, if only in the mind.
@smokedog901 to experience nostalgia you must experience the original form of it to begin with, this isn't nostalgia if you weren't old enough to remember it in the 70's/80's. if that's the case then it's not nostalgia, it's retro. either way it's fucking awesome. This has to be one of my favorite BoC tracks ever. rock this at sunset on a lit-up sky. It's amazing.
I can't be the only one who finds this track to be incredibly sad... extremely beautiful too though, one of my favorite BOC tracks ever, even if it rips my soul in half by the end
I always envisioned this song being in a movie scene where a guy is in his car driving to a shopping mall where he's about to unload 15 AK47 magazines on everyone there.
@jdoggybizzle He meant this song gives him a sense of nostalgia. retro is an out of date style. It seems that alot of people get a sense of nostalgia when listening to BoC. That is what makes them such an original band. Its like they are masters of getting into your sub-concious with music.
A subtle detail about Corsair is the faint speech in the background of the song. The speech sounds like a woman or child counting in a distorted static voice each time the melody swells. The counting from numbers one to nine are best heard at the end of the song in the right ear with headphones: “one” at 2:11 to “nine” at 2:28. It’s more difficult to discern on this video’s quality
I love how everybody says this is their favorite BOC song, but for every song
That's the thing. There just are no bad BoC tracks.
@@benfos8109 yes they are !
@@letitridedh2566 Nope.
5d , gyroscope, opening the mouth, echus, and corsiar
For me it's "Chromakey Dreamcoat."
One of the most beautiful experiences I've ever had is being sat on the beach at 1 in the morning listening to this. Not a single soul there except for me. Felt like I might as well have been the last person on earth. Chilling, yet oddly comforting.
I will be scared if i do that :o

then you hear sundown

This track also fits to the atmosphere of "Tommorow's Harvest" album
I was just thinking this!
Kinda like semena mertvykh
I think all their music is supposed to overlap/connect in some way.
It seems to be starting on the same chord as Sundown...with which it shares a similar atmosphere IMHO
yea it sorta feels like a teaser track for Tomorrows Harvest
I'd like to think these old guys are still alive in an alternate universe, forever flying the skies in their cool Corsair and joking around with each other.
Probably listened to this a thousand times over the years and is quite simply the most captivating n emotional record I've ever heard, nothing really comes close in terms of those haunting, but also uplifting chords ...and that video...how on earth can any film clip ever be any better for this than this.....
Exactly. So simple yet so profound.
Try machine drum vision centerd in addition
I feel there's a beautiful contrast with Ready Lets Go... there's something gentle and infantile about the opening, like a confused and vulnerable child (in musical form) opening its weakling wings before the listener, unaware of the trials that await it. the closing track is so full of purpose and clarity in that purpose; an endless ascension beyond earthly fear.
You ever rarely get that feeling where listening to a track brings you such an emotional flow of chills, it's almost too much to bear? I just got that.
Everything disappears within this. Remnants of emotion and thought both equally clear and indecipherable.
Tanner Brown perfectly put.
rediscovered this one just now. What sheer beauty. I love the loneliness of it.
such a simple well written song
that feel when you find out one of your oldest steam friends that hadnt logged on months died of an overdose.
holy fuck lol
Wow dude you just made me cry the combo of this song and your comment
oh shit
owww
Too heavy
They better play this with a high quality PA system at my funeral as they slowly carry my casket to my grave site.
I want to cry for the Corsair and I don't know why.
The most beautiful song I've ever heard in my life. Thank you Boards Of Canada.

I wish I knew how to create a synth sound like the drone in this song.
you can use Paulstretch to create a droney effect with any sound file (in Audacity)
Alternatively, as a commentor suggested this sounds a slowed down and sampled and tweaked version of, "To Here Knows When" , "I Only Said", by My Bloody Valentine.

Listening to this track late in the night as the sky turns from black to dark blue and you actually realize it’s early morning.
And you realise there's no point in you trying to go to sleep and you might as well pull an all nighter.
This is more than a song.. It takes me out of my body to some timeless dimension where i feel only ecstatic peace..

@@DesertPunks thanks (: 18 more days till my next one
Simply the deepest track in BoC discography.
To me, this song feels like when you've accepted that you cannot go back to the past. It hurts in a melacholy sort of way.
For me this song evokes feelings of emergence, awakening, and conclusion...A suburban family opening the bomb shelter door after ages underground solemnly looking out upon the barren wasteland that was once their home...
This is what getting warmed by the sun on the top of a mountain sounds like
At a time when I was so angry at the world, this song and a sunset through my window reminded me how beautiful life can be
Yeah. For me depression paradoxically always carries with it the seeds of transcendence. Whether that transcendence takes the form of physical suicide or egoic suicide is up to each individual to find out. May all beings find the latter.
Something so dark and creepy about this music. Love it.
A truly disturbing piece of music. I still haven't decided if I love it or I hate it.
This is one of their best ever. How the f&^% do they do it???
The vid is hilarious too: three engines out and the pilots are mugging for the camera, lighting up a smoke... "Say, Sammy, when I'm about to crash and burn, there's nothing like the smooth, refreshing taste of a Pall Mall, don't you think?"

BOC is legendary. they are the best electronic group of all time.
dialogue during 1:17:
"captain, we've seem to loss all engines"
captain: "i dont give a fuck as long as im listening to boards of canada"
Anyone else getting goosebumps while listening to this?
Absolutely. Quite strong ones at that.

This is my favorite song of BoC... till the next one.
I always imagined a real lone Corsair on his ship swimming in the dawn.
This is so beautiful!!! thank you for uploading..
heard this on BBC's Big Cat Diary. Awesome!!!
i listened to this hoping that something in it would change, when it ended - that's when i fell in love with it - i realized that it was perfect the way it is.
Brilliant song! It makes me soo calm.. I love it :)
When you accept your death and everything of your life flashes before your eyes before you collapse!! But it's never over as your spark lives on good or bad!!!
Me too! So awesome looking out the window with these tracks playing
The video was taken from "Flying with Arthur Godfrey". The plane is a Lockheed Super Constellation.
Excellent track to clear your mind before meditation.
Love the vid and music together.
This song reminds me of David Lynch & Mulholland Drive for some reason
Paul Hicks there is definitely a connection between the worlds of BoC and David Lynch
Paul Hicks i can totally imagine this played over the ending
even pirates have a bad day
i like that^^
this song makes me feel that I can feel the pain of the world to mourn it and take it away from us and be happy for ever after(sorry for the bad english,just in case)
The sound of mourning the alternative lives you never lived and lives of others now forgotten.
One of my favorite noises
It makes me think of a ship captain hundreds of years ago, alone at sea on his vessel, watching the sun rise from across the water... The world hadn't been discovered yet and mystery was still out there. Magic existed for a time, if only in the mind.
Sound for all our journeys.

This reminds me of the book "'Ender's Game" especially the final battle and the implications for mankind.
This track is life itself.
I always envisioned this song being in a movie scene where a guy is in his car driving to a shopping mall where he's about to unload 15 AK47 magazines on everyone there.
The theme of someone's who truly has nothing, and therefore has nothing to lose? I can envision that. Terrifying, really.
This song is awesome.
This is the Treefingers of Geogaddi.
Wish I could sit in the Co Pilots seat of a connie and appear in a BOC film.
Great choice!
This track is pure raw emotion. Nuff said.
This sounds like watching the mirage on a autumn day
You're welcome, thanks for making my day :)
If we were all gone tomorrow the world would be a beautiful place with no one to see it.
Awesome!
@jdoggybizzle He meant this song gives him a sense of nostalgia. retro is an out of date style. It seems that alot of people get a sense of nostalgia when listening to BoC. That is what makes them such an original band. Its like they are masters of getting into your sub-concious with music.

eating some flutie flakes by my pool to this song
Una ventanita a la percepción plena.
BoC is a chance for the current generation who grew up digital to experience the analog sounds of previous generations including my own.
Sunsets with golden and red-tipped bottoms of clouds over a lake. That's Corsair.
All I can say is this makes me think of American Airlines 737-800s taxiing at O'Hare.
This fits so well now covid ends and war started , feeling constant toska.
For real
this song always feels like a cloud of smoke
The journey to the present
I listen to Boards of Canada whenever I'm on a plane.
