    on the odd chance there's any non-chileans wondering about all the chileans losing their shit about this song, there's a mediocre college in the country, Universidad Santo Tomás, which is mainly (or solely) known to chileans for two things:
    1. going with this absolute banger of a theme for its advertising
    2. its founder dying after accidentally setting himself on fire while murdering a guy and trying to pass it off as an accident

      Thanks for explaining. I thought Santo Tomás was some UA-camr.
      Boards of Canada's music turns up in weird places.. like BBC produced animations like Monkey Dust and some documentary I saw about the Grinder killer in the UK.

    The first time I heard this song was on a flight to Disney Land when I was 6, on those old airplane music channels. All throughout the flight I kept on waiting anxiously for this song to come back so I could listen to it. Then I landed, and never heard it again, but it kept on comming back to me every now and then. Twelve years later, when I turned 18, I found it by accident. This is my love story :)

    Up until this point Music Has The Right To Children has this really cold, eerie, melancholic vibe and might be a bit of a challenging listen for some and this springs out of nowhere about halfway through like an oasis of electronic optimism. Strange that a piece of music that seems to function as an interlude of sorts is one of my favorite if not favorite piece of music from this record

    This video means so much to me. I was in my early twenties and had experienced relationship heart break for the first time. My heart was destroyed. I decided to leave England and move to the French Alps. I remember discovering IDM and BoC. I discovered Cannabis. The wounds have healed but the scars remain. The video and song doesn't have the same intensity of emotion that it had, but it reminds me how supported quality music can be to humans in a vulnerable state.

    The first time I heard this song was on a flight to Disney Land when I was 6, on those old airplane music channels. All throughout the flight I kept on waiting anxiously for this song to come back so I could listen to it. Then I landed, and never heard it again, but it kept on comming back to me every now and then. Twelve years later, when I turned 18, I found SAINT THOMAS university and my dreams came true :) Cheers from Chile, the best country of Chile

    • @paulgenevzki2477
      @paulgenevzki2477 6 років тому +21

      It's possible. Here's my hypothesis: ambient >> techno-ambient / "IDM" >> from speed-funny Aphex Twin to this slow-mellow by Boards of Canada >> Oneohtrix Point Never [OPN] works before he was joined the infamous Warp Records. OPN made a quite smooth transition from the Tangerine Dream/BoC naked synth style to his other projects such as Eccojams/KGB Nights/Games which 1980s soundscape was heavily inspired and these also gave inspiration to many early vaporwave artists.
      After you watch this [roygbiv], I recommend you to watch "Ouroboros" by OPN, both gave me nostalgic feelings when I spent much time in front of a TV with funny ads and corporate jingles.
