So atmospheric, so deep... Music doesn't get any better than this. Boards of Canada has a way of stripping away everything that modern life cakes us in, gaining a direct line to ones soul. The way their music can transfer so gracefully to other styles highlights just how masterful their moods and melodies are.
My grandmother died this winter. I feel you. But life is not only made for the end my friend. What brings me comfort is the idea that the way we percieve time and space are merely an illusion. The universe is in a sence eternal. It must be, since the theory of general relativity tells us the simultaneity of events is different for observers in different reference frames. This means that the past still exists. In essence you can visualize your life as an everlasting tree that grows in our spacetime fabric. You are all of it, at once. There is no time if you take a step back to observe this. (it could be helpfull to think of a 2D universe that had a time axis, so you would get a block universe in the 3D spacetime). Your tree will always be rooted in the top of your grandmothers tree. In 4D spacetime, you will always stand on her shoulders, just like she is standing on her grandmothers shoulders. Every moment you had with your grandmother, every memory you have, is still propagating as information throughout our existance we call the universe. And for the rest of time it will be. Make your tree grow, make memories. You will always have the memories of your grandmother, and through those she will guide you for the rest of your life. She is at your root. Much love friend. See you when the sun sets east.
These covers are really refreshing. I bought a mixtape when I was 12 years old out of a dollar bin that had a boards track, became hooked. I'm 34 now, lifelong listener. I've laughed loved and cried with boards. Your covers are beautiful. Thanks!
This was a very beautifully emotional rendition of Tears from the Compound Eye. Hit every chord with passion! And the imagery helps with the music as well. I’m definitely gonna give this cover many replays. Extremely well done.
I typed Tears From the Compound Eye into YT search and your cover came up...I clicked on it, not really in great expectation but curious...passing thru' 30 seconds and the hairs on the backs of my hands stood up. You nailed it - absolutely nailed it. Lovely, just lovely. Thank you.
I listened this cover. It makes my sadness and anger come out. I was in tears over a future that I can't materialize. And walking away from it. It's 2023.
WOW, this is amazing. love it. is the Lo-Fi-style intended? like the backround sounds from the recording or for example the clicky-sound and volume change at 2:25? even if the lo-fi isn't intended, it adds sooo much! great work
Thank you, yes you could say it is all sort of intentional, no intention to make something perfect and polished! Just happy to capture moments and the mood.
Hi you can find all my sheets for b.o.c. arrangements on my musescore page musescore.com/user/22958416 will hopefully get time to do some tutorials sometime this year
Theory: this is actually BOC doing acoustic versions of their songs on a little known UA-cam channel. I subbed. And guys, if it is you, new album please....
Thank you very much for your kind comment. As regards the narrative, there is not much to it - The shots of fields, cows, hills, clouds etc. are from near where I live. As I travel to work every day through this area I can see a ridge of distant hills 40 miles away, that's where the shots of the estuary, oil refinery and wind farms are taken. I decided to drive there one day and see if I could see my home patch from there and I caught that lovely sunset. So I guess the narrative is viewing the sunset simultaneously from two mutually visible locations .

My grandmother just died and now I'm crying even more listening to this beautiful cover. Why is life made only for the end?
it's not
Really sorry for your loss. Hope things are at least a little easier these days. Take care.

This is pretty much a perfect BoC cover and video.

Man, those four outro chords. Holy dissonance. Absolutely beautiful.
Seriously brilliant work on this classic track !
Made me shed a tear.

First time I listened this, touched my heart and got tears. Listen this every night for 2 years. Thank you
Never heard this wonderful track covered... It's brilliant, thank you.

Thank you.
It's beautiful to see one creative soul reflect back to another creative soul and share that out to all the rest of us.
Thank you....
Goosebumps and tears. Absolutely beautiful. Thankyou
Thank you. I learned how to play this on my electric guitar. One of my favorite songs of theirs. Your cover is beautiful.
This is beautiful, it made me cry for no reason.
I'm just about as in love with this version as I am with the original. Really makes me want to get infront of a piano and feel the music.
THis is absolutely beautiful. The BOC original always makes me cry and so did this too. I think your arrangement is incredible and conveys so much.
Wunderbar ❤
