According to BoCpages, this art is actually for “You could feel the sky” Which is weird to think about, since I first saw this image on this video, and can only relate it with this song
I couldn't look at the cover of Music Has The Right... for a couple of years when I was a kid. Those faceless people scared the shit out of me. Of course now, I love it.
stepan trvaj Definitely not one of my favorites, but it's not a terrible track. Reminds me of some of the interlude songs in NIN albums. I think it's due to the BOC members losing hope with the world which produced BOC that they went with more dissonant sounds than normal.
This intense repeated melody, with its back-time feel, is electric and visionary... They gradually add layers of sounds to strengthen the sensation, building upward to a peak, and eventually, it's a swirling mix of sounds that then make their way back down... Yes, this song is definitely worth more attention...
Analogue sound triggers a release of dopamine. This is a rush of emotions from the very beginning, other types of music make you wait for it, if ever reach it.
BoC use digital samplers to manipulate recordings. BoC did not use analog synthesisers exclusively, but were more into recording something into a sampler and manipulating the sound to their taste. Your statement would have been true, had you left out the analog description, for sound does release dopamines and create feel good emotions in the listener.
You are listening to a digital copy over the digital internet. So, my question to you is, is this youtube version in anyway less potent in its ability to create the dopamines for you...?? Or does it only work if you listen to it on an analog tapedeck or record deck?
psynapsurfa technoshaman It's a mixture of both actually. Their earlier work consist of more analogue sounds and equipment. Then you can hear a more digital and live sound when Geogaddi came around. And then it graduated into live instruments, exclusively. TM is purely analog.
psynapsurfa technoshaman I own vinyl copies also. I'm just commenting here since I can get replies. And there is a large difference in quality between the digital disc version and digital version. Depends which format the track is also.
This is what I love about BoC. Eve since I heard their songs I've always experienced them in different ways. Songs that rmind me of the spring, summer, autumn, winter. Songs that during those seasons I have full experience either during the morning, day, evening and night. Songs that if I hear at these specific times brings back memories that relates to them, like the song Olson I listen to during an early summer evening bringing back the memories of watching the sun set with a previous partner.
@Aidref Hi there - The 2 brothers have never wanted to be in the lime light. You will also notice that they never now do gigs. It was actualy John Peel who coaxed them out of there studio in Midlothian. Hope this helps and I agree with what you say. Cheers. Ryan
I buy an album because it has two or three or maybe even four songs that I like, but with BOC there are 38 songs I like (e.g. Geogaddi or Campfire Headphase), like, all the music grabs my brain and forever more echoes like a dream.
@@summerteeeth There's a conspiracy theory that BoC are Satanists because of supposed subliminal messages in their music, particularly on the album Geogaddi.
some of the songs from geogaddi are a little creepy to me, but I still love all their songs. each album is good for different moods, my favorite is probably campfire headphase, but tomorrow's harvest is growing on me too.
@@adecentman4618 I just read it as a random comment haha. There is an acoustic twelve string playing in reverse at the end of Gyroscrope. But it is not a sample. They use bass guitar and lots of conventional instruments in the recording process to get their sound. And, of course, they used acoustic and electric guitars all over The Campfire Headphase. I think the only sample of guitar they do is for the outro of Everything You Do is a Balloon: ua-cam.com/video/dQEmaj9C6ko/v-deo.html
I am rather certain the melody is an arpeggiated synth. Once I had a genius musician friend replicate it - took a bit to recreate it but it's entirely doable.
Also, the piece of this tune which was impossible to reproduce is the flute samples... their sampling skills are beyond anything anyone else will ever achieve.
Thanks Wallistism for this wonderful BoC upload! That was the mid of 2008 i found this track on youtube that opened for me unlimited love to this wonderful scotish band! It also inspired me to dig dipper into electronic music world and become electronic artist myself!
very true! I mean, Geogaddi kind of needs all of the songs that make it up. Disengage has several movements and different ones speak to me at different times. Hell there's two versions of One Very Important Thought
i really don't care why anyone else listens. My taste in music is not altered or tarnished based on who else is or isn't listening to the same artists.
I have same feelings. Red Moss is so psychodelic, when I listen to it I am captured in another world an I need time to get back to real world. That is what BOC is doing to the listeners...
@lulu9427 i made that cover ages ago and it's been floating around the internet ever since. it's appropriated from the cover of an old book called "people of light and dark," about canada's inuit population.
This song feels as if it drills right into my mind and the subconcious, and I suddenly feel my mind thinking along to this beat. It makes no sense, but lots of BOC songs do something like that to me.
Start with this song around 20000ft, just a bit after descent begins. Carcan/Nlogax when you can make out individual cars down below. Whitewater as you land, One Very Important Thought as you taxi to the gate. Best done at sunset or, my preference, sunrise.
@Aidref i agree that its really good music. one of my faves, but the reason they're not "massively famous" is cuz this music is very nichie. though you may find it the most engrossing music youve every heard, most find it repetitive and boring. they dont hear the subtleties. my sister finds the music scary. and a friend from australia thought my cd was skipping when she heard it. its not super accessible to the G.P. its not overtly obvious like lady gaga or 311. a lot of people need that.
ah, great track, and I always think of Stalingrad everytime I listen to it, because I was reading about the battle of Stalingrad the first time I listened to it. If I ever make a movie about that battle I'll use this track.
this is very remarkable what u write. Very good thoughts and totally the truth. Who is listening to BOC has also decided against mainstream music shit and is willing to look behind horizonts..
Haha same thing happend to me several times, I love this mystery about it. I guess the more you are away from who you really are, the more you fear things that touch your soul.
@@vertsk8er419 Actually no, it was very abstract, it was the disembodied suggestion of an extremely powerful being of some sort. I remember images of huge black knuckles flexing and clasping its own hands together, which sounds dark but it didn't feel that way. I remember being so very impressed at the sheer power of the being, which I think was a strange manifestation of the way you hear a fat beat in music and you make the stank face, a very strangely interpreted version of that. The sheer power of the beat getting stronger every couple of minutes and the macabre melody on top of it came out as this impressive creature that was bigger than I could ever imagine. Fuck that was a good trip.
@CubistKing1906 Yeah me too actually, I've spread their music around to my friends now and there's a really intimate feeling from the music now seeing as how I can discuss it with a few more people. It really wouldn't be the same if they were on the radio the whole time :-)
boards of canada is mood music...music produced to ellicit an emotional response...those that know the power of music dont need words to appreciate it...somehow certain progressions of notes and chords produce different chemical responses...if u cant appreciate it, i am truly sorry...i can pick certain artists out of my collection to listen to at certain times because i remember the exhilaration each brigs in its own way...without music, life is a mistake
@lulu9427 i made this image years ago when i was still learning photoshop (notice i get a little heavy with the contrast filter.) it was posted on fredd-e's bocpages website and i think its still up there, along with a lot of other shoddy fake b.o.c. covers i made back in the day. glad you like it though . . .
@typeanoise They have played a handful of live shows, they promote their releases with Press packages and Posters in CD shops. That's pretty much it though, I agree with you about the release and website updates but really... would you rather have them half-arse their music or let them continue to be meticulous and perfectionists? I'd leave them off, I have yet to find a BoC song I don't love :-)
I must say that I am with you on that. I often wonder that the fact you don't really see them allows your own mind to take the journey that the music leads? I think if you could visualise them it would take that all away.
...as long as people don't listen to this music only to try to seem hip or cool or whatever, or for any other pretentious reason, but instead simply for the love and the feeling of the music, all is good. :o)
@all, agreeing with the majority; Boards of Canada (with or without drugs) makes your mind go places that you do not direct it towards. It takes your mind down so many mental paths straight into the subconscious and you are completely submerged in an emotional & physical experience just by using your ears. Boards of Canada, thank you.
Where are all these tracks from? I thought i had there discography; Twoism, High Scores, Peel Session, Music Has The Right to Children, A Beautiful Place Out In The Country, Geogaddi, Campfire Headphase, Aquarias, Trans-Canada Highway... yet there are all these tracks on youtube that aren't from any of them...?
Don't know what and how it happened but boc and hash years ago put me in this state, difficult to explain, but everything I did was a balloon, know what I mean? It all happened automatically, like I was just this vessel. Did not think, just did. Took the record I was listening to, which has this blueish color with white streaks, pulled a string through the hole and attached it to a standing lamp fixing it so that the hole was right in the middle of the beam, took my camera (again, it all just happened, like I was one big automatic nervous system deeply moving my limbic system) and made this, what turned out to be, in my humble opinion, Devine photo depicting the Big Bang, upon first sight making me go immediately into this euphoric psychosis lasting a couple of years turning out honestly to become the most happy period in my life to this day.
my friend doesn't like boc, cos he says it makes him sleepy, one of the reasons i love them so, boc say themselves they like the thought of subliminal suggestion in music, i always think bout that when listening to them
ever since I was a kid i have found that to be so true. It indeed has everything to do with what simulates the brain. certain music (expression) can literally be over some peoples Heads .= )
@SeriousIlya I agree on you, on one way it is a shame we hear all those shit on the radio these days. On the other had, at least you know the people listen to this music are smart enough to decide which music they like by themselves instead of let mainstream decide what they should listen. Let the experimental, open-minded people listen to this and let the crap on the radio for those other people.
@Aidref there is good music around that gets the deserved attention, it is just that most good musicians care shit about marketing, thus they remain relatively small..
The picture here is from an old book on northern Canada called People of Light and Dark. I have this book, knew it looked familiar...
Got the Loch Ness silhouette vibe going
According to BoCpages, this art is actually for “You could feel the sky”
Which is weird to think about, since I first saw this image on this video, and can only relate it with this song
I'm such a BoC freak, I tracked this book down and bought it based on your comment. Thanks.
@@SnuffyWuffles let me know how it goes
@@SnuffyWuffles how’s the book?
This song is perpetually looping in my head at all times of the day
Today is a good day
I couldn't look at the cover of Music Has The Right... for a couple of years when I was a kid. Those faceless people scared the shit out of me. Of course now, I love it.
I guess it didn't have the right to you as a child
I've never met a BoC song I didn't love.
what about Uritual heh :D?
stepan trvaj haven't heard it.
i think you should listen to it, im interested what u think
stepan trvaj Definitely not one of my favorites, but it's not a terrible track. Reminds me of some of the interlude songs in NIN albums. I think it's due to the BOC members losing hope with the world which produced BOC that they went with more dissonant sounds than normal.
Olson, 5.9.78, Tears from the compound eye (?) Try those, damn I'm already getting emotional writing them down.
Oh man i used to make love while these boc classics played on my speakers. What a great summer I had with these tunes.
Making love to the tunes, nice.
Too much info, didn't need to know that.
having sex to boc is actually unbelievably hard
This intense repeated melody, with its back-time feel, is electric and visionary... They gradually add layers of sounds to strengthen the sensation, building upward to a peak, and eventually, it's a swirling mix of sounds that then make their way back down...
Yes, this song is definitely worth more attention...
Agreed
this song is something else...

psynapsurfa technoshaman It's a mixture of both actually. Their earlier work consist of more analogue sounds and equipment. Then you can hear a more digital and live sound when Geogaddi came around. And then it graduated into live instruments, exclusively. TM is purely analog.
psynapsurfa technoshaman I own vinyl copies also. I'm just commenting here since I can get replies. And there is a large difference in quality between the digital disc version and digital version. Depends which format the track is also.
***** you could say that. But if you listen to their earlier work you can hear it was mostly analog.

1st time here
This is such a beautiful, emotive piece of music. It is one of the few songs I can play on a loop and it genuinely transports me to another place.
They have a lot of songs like that in their repertoire.
This is what I love about BoC. Eve since I heard their songs I've always experienced them in different ways. Songs that rmind me of the spring, summer, autumn, winter. Songs that during those seasons I have full experience either during the morning, day, evening and night.

it's music like this that splits even the greyest of head clouds in half to reveal the hexagram of the heavens.
Thought you said the gayest of head clouds...
I buy an album because it has two or three or maybe even four songs that I like, but with BOC there are 38 songs I like (e.g. Geogaddi or Campfire Headphase), like, all the music grabs my brain and forever more echoes like a dream.
Man, that's crazy! Wow. BoC freaks out and depresses some people? I can't even imagine these tunes not soothing my soul.
Knew somebody who said they thought BoC were 'deathists' and then would not explain what they meant. They weren't a fan. Oh well...lol
@@summerteeeth There's a conspiracy theory that BoC are Satanists because of supposed subliminal messages in their music, particularly on the album Geogaddi.

Chef-d'oeuvre !
the intro's like an old 70's news station jingle
Yeah,I know is one of the National Geographic shows if Im not wrong...
Reminds me of so many childhood things. How does this music reach into the soul so well.
i would pay good money just to hear boc play this drum beat live
I love when BOC uses guitar samples
where in this song are you hearing guitar? curious
@@adecentman4618 I just read it as a random comment haha. There is an acoustic twelve string playing in reverse at the end of Gyroscrope. But it is not a sample.

Im pretty sure these guys aren't wasting time judging the motives behind their listeners' choice to be a fan of their work.
I'd agree although the scariness comes from the mystery of the unknown rather than anything else. I think this was their intention.
one of my all time favourites oc BoC
13 years later: still going strong
One of my very favourite BOC tracks :-)
+technonoises same!
+weatheranddarkness It's hard to have a favourite BOC track when so many are good! I personally have an obsession with tears from the compound eye.
very true!
I mean, Geogaddi kind of needs all of the songs that make it up. Disengage has several movements and different ones speak to me at different times. Hell there's two versions of One Very Important Thought
I absolutely love Tears from the Compound Eye
I will always have a soft spot for In a Beautiful Place Out in the Country, but yes, all BoC tracks are awesomesauce!
BoC produces the most unique and addicting beats in all of music
i really don't care why anyone else listens. My taste in music is not altered or tarnished based on who else is or isn't listening to the same artists.
Such a timeless piece
I have same feelings. Red Moss is so psychodelic, when I listen to it I am captured in another world an I need time to get back to real world. That is what BOC is doing to the listeners...
I must have heard this song about a hundred times now and it never gets old.
It's still not getting old.
The into sounds like it's spelling out BOARDS OF CANADA
good observations
+Insane Lemon
their logo on INVOCATION is just genius work.
yeah
+Charles Patrick what do you mean?
@lulu9427 i made that cover ages ago and it's been floating around the internet ever since. it's appropriated from the cover of an old book called "people of light and dark," about canada's inuit population.
Once, while I was playing videogames with a friend of mine. I put up some "Geogaddi". After the first three song, he had a terrible headache.
This song feels as if it drills right into my mind and the subconcious, and I suddenly feel my mind thinking along to this beat. It makes no sense, but lots of BOC songs do something like that to me.
Once went to Red Moss on a school excursion while a student at Balerno High School. The tune Red Moss is far more interesting than the place.
You need to pack the right lunch bag
a real trippy feel to it. great!
So weird, so great
Start with this song around 20000ft, just a bit after descent begins. Carcan/Nlogax when you can make out individual cars down below. Whitewater as you land, One Very Important Thought as you taxi to the gate. Best done at sunset or, my preference, sunrise.
its like fife and drum military music

I was 18 back then... I still love your music!!! Scottish are truly amazing with their instruments
Haha same thing happend to me several times, I love this mystery about it. I guess the more you are away from who you really are, the more you fear things that touch your soul.
Great track !
this music makes people think about life and most people dont want to use their brains unless its for a math problem or something they are told to do
Wow one of their best tracks, but they are all amazing...
Fell asleep one night listening to music, and woke up in the middle of the night to hear this playing. It was awesome. Part I heard was around 3:30
Proper tune !
Is this an original photo of halo effect? I've seen this cover before many times, but didn't notice that picture looks like a real photo.
Wow I just looked the book uo and the original is really beautiful. :] Thanks for giving me the background info., I just might give it a read.
never cease to amaze.
wow, sweet track! boards of Canada rock!
Best video contest.... Go!
5:55 that outro though.. that is just amazing.
+ the rest of it ;)
Yep.
Could loop that to infinity and not get bored.
I listened to this song on acid many many years ago. I will never ever forget the images this song created.
I'm guessing they were kind of circus ish? Maybe Ren Faire esque? Cuz those are the images coming to my mind...
@@vertsk8er419 Actually no, it was very abstract, it was the disembodied suggestion of an extremely powerful being of some sort.

LOV THIS
Would be amazing if they just turned up out of the blue at the next Glastonbury Festival
This intro always give me the nostalgic chills in a good way.
Seriously, this could most definitely be the first song on a “Potential Rerelease Compilation Album” or so the Hexagon Sun rep told.
best song ever made
they *are* massively famous, they just don't get a ton of radio play
boards of canada is mood music...music produced to ellicit an emotional response...those that know the power of music dont need words to appreciate it...somehow certain progressions of notes and chords produce different chemical responses...if u cant appreciate it, i am truly sorry...i can pick certain artists out of my collection to listen to at certain times because i remember the exhilaration each brigs in its own way...without music, life is a mistake
