[[Boards of Canada]] fans have had a hard time getting hold of all the records released by Scotsmen [[Michael Sandison]] and [[Marcus Eoin]]. The first EP, [[Twoism (release)|Twoism]], was self-published in an edition of 100, a large portion of the edition of a 7″ on [[SKAM]] intended as a Christmas single is currently rotting in a living room in Manchester - difficulties with various distributors - and the best BoC track is hiding on MASK 1, a 12″ compilation also limited to 100 copies. This music deserves more attention. Because: it's about melodies between science fiction and "kitsch", and because that's often the same, somehow about earlier. Crazy catchy, engaging and ... haunting. Melodies that make you feel good in your stomach, are probably called memory chords in Detroit and remind you of the really important things: summer vacations, blinking into the sun. Consequently, [[Warp Records|Warp]], home of the pale English, has now bought [[Boards of Canada]] and with ''[[Music Has the Right to Children]]'' presents a mixture of out-of-print and new material. [[Michael Sandison]] calls me on Good Friday, somewhere on the way on a highway near Cologne.

{{boc|[[Marcus Eoin|Martin Sandison]]: [[Boards of Canada]] are exclusive to [[Warp Records|Warp]]. But we have an agreement that we can continue to release material on other labels, but not under that name. So there will be another record on [[SKAM]]. [[Music Has the Right to Children]] ([[Warp Records|Warp]] / Rough Trade) is available now. QUOTE: "Melodies that remind you of really important things: summer vacations, blinking into the sun."}}
