its now September and no news of a new LP.
Do you feel it's gonna be 2011 at this point?
Warp seems to not care about its fans anymore, they used to at least keep people in the loop.
anyway, great site, very helpful. It's hard when a favorite artist stays silent for almost 5 full years with no news.
Hope we hear something soon, even if it's news that a spring LP is in the works.
Cheers!

Hey,
Love the website, thank you so much for putting all of this together. Been a fan of this site and others for years.
I have what I believe to be several fake BoC songs I ran across in p2p networks years ago. They are:
Catalogue 3: "Drone 2"
Acid Memories: "Duffy" "Petina" "Helter Skelter" "Echo the Sun"
Closes Vol 1: "True Map" "Close1" "5d" "Tends Towards" "Eye / Ear" "Fonec"
Play by Numbers: "Wouldn't You Like To Be Free" "Infinite Lines of Colourful Sevens" "Numerator"
Hooper Bay: "Seward Leaf" "Geiser" "Circle" "Point Hope"
I know that this group has had TONS of fakes of their music made, but what bothers me about the recordings I found is their similarities to the lengths of the orginal songs as listed on this website. Is there ANY way to know if anything I have in legitimate, or at least to find out what it really is?
I appreciate any ideas.

WTF is happening with BOC?
Are they actually going to release anything again or are they doing a KLF?

Umm... It's great to fantasize about a new BoC album, but I can't find a lick of info on it anywhere. I tend to doubt that a new album will arrive this year, does anybody have a link confirming it? Trust me, If there was a new album coming out then I'd be really excited, but so far all that's going around is hot air (and maybe some possible fakes like the sunflowers track).
On another note, BoC speak of a so called "secret weapon" that they use to record music (http://www.solesides.com/winblad/boards20of20canada/bocforcefield0498.html), I have a pretty good feeling that it has to do with analog tape. Maybe a circuit bent tape player with a potentiometer controlling the speed of the tape. That could be a lot of fun, especially if it was a 4 track tape recorder. I also think they heavily use analog compression (like a Joe Meek compressor or something). Whatever they use, I'll bet it's analog. As far as synthesizers, it could be anything, a Moog an ARP or maybe even newer stuff like the Alesis Andromeda, some analog synth with VCOs.
I think they have a unique sound. However, the reason they sound unique is because they're just making music in ways that other people just aren't. If you mention tape recording on a typical music forum you'll get chewed out with people saying things like "You WANT to record to tape? That's something you use when you CAN'T afford digital recorders". What i'm trying to say is: sounding like BoC isn't a hurdle, it's just a matter of having the right equipment (the same could be said about any musician I guess). They DO posses a gift for beats and melodies too, and that has a lot to do with it as well.

hey alex, why so frustrated? use your imagination and confide in BOC. The new album will come, only your ego needs convincing evidence...you will laugh this year, when holding your copy in hands.

I recently came across an mp3 called sunflower from an album called continental divide supposedly by Boards of Canada, usually I would be able to tell if it was a fake, but this one seems very authentic, it isn`t hard to imitate their style, but it just seems so obscure, from an album I never heard of.... it`s weird, who would have gone to the trouble to do this? its on mediafire.com under 07-boards of canada sunflower - weird, check it out, I would like to see what the people who run this site know or think about it.

http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&cd=54&ved=0CBsQFjADODI&url=http3A2F2Fwww.mediafire.com2F3F4j1mil1yjtj&rct=j&q=site:mediafire.com+boards+of+canada&ei=vz8cTN-jHMG78gbHkeiDDA&usg=AFQjCNHjHuZY1P_pVIhS7k5K9kyLhRzxUA&sig2=cSdXjZzAc6p87G8Wtd0exQ keyword site:mediafire.com boards of canada under "07 Boards of Canada Sunflower" feel free to check it out like people did in the days before links were prevalent(its easy) and this song is worth checking out even though it most likely is a fake, the funny thing I realized is this "sunflower" song is actually the outro to "Satellite Anthem Icarus" its just a cleaner version and just a little different(you can hear the piano more clearly), like the version of it before it was distorted and made into the outro for satellite on "the campfire headphase"(which is something I know BoC did with many old songs, use them as intro/outros on more recent work). whoever did this(if it isn`t BoC) spent some time on it.theres even a supposed album title and album cover artwork, "Continental Divide", and I know that was never said to be a title for any ep`s of their early work.I know Fredd-E and BoC pages have no inside info connection to confirm it, I just wanted to put it out there to see what others thought.

sorry about the confusion with the last post, guess I can`t post a link for that, but like I said just go to mediafire and look up the song the way I instructed.It`s real easy, I stumbled across it myself just by typing in Boards of Canada and it was on the sixth or seventh page down of hosted files- good luck!
