}}

==Samples/Lyrics==
* There are lots of opinions on what is said, so make your own minds up. Suggestions include "say!" [DC], "Safe!" [John S.]; "Rain" [Rory]; "hey!", "faith", "a lake", "late", "yes" (backwards), and "yeah!" (backwards) - this last suggestion from [Kaini Industries] seems to get the popular vote. Take your pick!

== Technical References ==
*Roygbiv is an acronym for the colours of the rainbow, Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo and Violet.

== Comments ==
* ''Roy G. Biv'' is a common mnemonic for the order of the colours of the rainbow, like 'Richard of York gave battle in vain'. [DC]

== Alpha Quest Mix ==
*''Roygbiv - [[Alphaquest]] Mix'' was a remix done by [[Boards of Canada|BoC]] specially for someone called Andy Soosay's student film. The track was leaked onto the net and is understood to be genuine. It's longer than the original at 6:23. The mix begins with the track ''[[Bocuma]]'' in its entirety. It's backed up by images of the actual DAT inlay which contains nuggets such as "Custom DIY job for Andy Soosay", "Date Time: Thursday 15th May 1997", "SOURCE: Brown source or tomato source" and "COMMENTS: Yeah, it's pretty good".
* Additional words in the Alpha Quest mix are as follows:
<blockquote>
Doorways up and down the hall 
Wonder what's behind them all? 
Doors that lead to anywhere 
Got to A, B, C what's there 
Got to A, B, C, Decide 
Where's the door I haven't tried? 
A, B, C, D, East and West 
Going on an Alphaquest!"''
</blockquote>

Olson: /* Inaccurately Tagged */ My mistake

__TOC__

=Preface=

Before any discussion of specific tracks or releases can take place, it is important to consider several important realities about Boards of Canada's discography:
1. [[Boards of Canada]] rarely and inconsistently release albums. Because of this, it is very common for tracks or albums to be released or announced within the community as a joke on the community. Sometimes, even, for unknown reasons, artists deliberately choose to circulate their own work on peer to peer networks as the work of [[Boards of Canada]]. With very few exceptions, those tracks and albums not explicitly outlined in the discography found here on the wiki are fake by default. The number of these forgeries seems to grow rather than decline, and while the vast majority of the tracks known to the community are included on this page, it is by no means an exhaustive list of the music marketed as Boards of Canada on the world wide web.

2. Boards of Canada's back catalog (Pre-[[Twoism]]) is a subject of controversy. While the community seems to generally agree upon the genuineness of [[BoC Maxima]], [[Old Tunes Vol. 1]], [[Old Tunes Vol. 2]] and the [[Random 35 Tracks Tape]], all of the other pre-[[Twoism ]]releases are believed to be unavailable online. [[Closes Vol. 1]] and [[Hooper Bay]] fakes circulate especially often online, and appear in various forms, but in all cases have been rejected by the community as being legitimate [[Boards of Canada]] releases. The only copies known to exist of these early albums are believed to be owned by the friends and family of Boards of Canada, who have never posted them online.

3. Sometimes users poorly or inaccurately tag MP3s. Some legitimate Boards of Canada tracks are mislabeled. For instance, "[[David Came To Mahana'im]]" and "[[Sir Prancelot Brainfire]]" are commonly confounded mp3s on P2P networks. It is important to either find a reliable source for the legitimate pre-Twoism releases, or to pay careful attention to track times to ensure that they are properly labeled.

That said, the following are bootlegs and fakes well known to the community:

=Bootlegs=

This record appeared in auction in 2007. It includes a number of [[Boards of Canada]] tracks, culled from [[Skam]]'s ultra-rare [[Mask series]]. In March 2007, [[We Are the Music Makers]] admin [[Joyrex]] positively identified the record as a bootleg unauthorized by [[Skam]]. The tracks are believed to have been cut from mp3, though the relative quality of the recording is a subject of debate.

'''Tracklisting (per the label)'''

* A1 - Midas Touch (Remix)
* A2 - Korona
* B1 - Trapped (Hell Interface Remix)
* B2 - Trapped (Short Slow Version)

Note that [http://www.discogs.com/release/911603 discogs' page for this release] indicates that the label's tracklisting is inaccurate

''Boards of Canada Live @ Warp 10 1999 + All Tomorrow's Parties 2001'' appeared in auction in February 2008. It purports to be a collection of Boards of Canada's live tracks from the [[Warp 10]] and [[ATP]] sets that are now in wide circulation on Peer to Peer networks, as well as a recording of their [[Peel Session]].

The bootlegger, however, did not do his homework, and included non-live tracks such as "[[Orange Romeda]]" (which was featured in neither of the live shows OR the [[Peel Session]],) and failed to include ALL of the [[Peel Session]] tracks included on the standard release.

It is also worthy of note that the bootlegger's artwork indicates that the [[All Tomorrow's Parties]] of 2001 took place in Los Angeles, California. The real [[ATP]] of 2001 took place in England.

All things considered, it is one of the more sloppy Boards of Canada bootlegs in circulation.

=Fake Artwork and Non-Existent Albums=

Occasionally releases are announced or artwork is produced by the community as a joke on the community. Sometimes these releases and artwork gain enough currency that they become recurring topics on IDM related forums. Here are a few of the more prevalent:

'''Chaosmachine''' is the handle of web designer, programmer and musician John Forsythe. A long time [[WATMM]] user, he now serves as the secondary root administrator, behind site founder [[Joyrex]]. While a fan of Boards of Canada himself, he is probably best known in the community for producing several very convincing [[Fakes, Bootlegs, and Bad Tags|fake tracks]].

1. [[Boards of Canada]] rarely and inconsistently release albums. Because of this, it is very common for tracks or albums to be released or announced within the community as a joke on the community. Sometimes, even, for unknown reasons, artists deliberately choose to circulate their own work on peer to peer networks as the work of [[Boards of Canada]]. With very few exceptions, those tracks and albums not explicitly outlined in the discography found here on the wiki are fake by default. The number of these forgeries seems to grow rather than decline, and while the vast majority of the tracks known to the community are included on this page, it is by no means an exhaustive list of the music marketed as Boards of Canada on the world wide web.

2. Boards of Canada's back catalog (Pre-[[Twoism]]) is a subject of controversy. While the community seems to generally agree upon the genuineness of [[Old Tunes Vol. 1]], [[Old Tunes Vol. 2]], [[A Few Old Tunes]], and [[BoC Maxima]], all of the other pre-[[Twoism ]]releases are believed to be unavailable online. [[Closes Vol. 1]] and [[Hooper Bay]] fakes circulate especially often online, and appear in various forms, but in all cases have been rejected by the community as being legitimate [[Boards of Canada]] releases. The only copies known to exist of these early albums are believed to be owned by the friends and family of Boards of Canada, who have never posted them online.

3. Sometimes users poorly or inaccurately tag MP3s. Some legitimate Boards of Canada tracks are mislabeled. For instance, "[[David Came To Mahana'im]]" and "[[Sir Prancelot Brainfire]]" are commonly confounded mp3s on P2P networks. It is important to either find a reliable source for the legitimate pre-Twoism releases, or to pay careful attention to track times to ensure that they are properly labeled.

That said, the following are bootlegs and fakes well known to the community:

This record appeared in auction in 2007. It includes a number of [[Boards of Canada]] tracks, culled from [[Skam]]'s ultra-rare [[Mask series]]. In March 2007, [[We Are the Music Makers]] admin [[Joyrex]] positively identified the record as a bootleg unauthorized by [[Skam]]. The tracks are believed to have been cut from mp3, though the relative quality of the recording is a subject of debate.

''Boards of Canada Live @ Warp 10 1999 + All Tomorrow's Parties 2001'' appeared in auction in February 2008. It purports to be a collection of Boards of Canada's live tracks from the [[Warp 10]] and [[ATP]] sets that are now in wide circulation on Peer to Peer networks, as well as a recording of their [[Peel Session]].

The bootlegger, however, did not do his homework, and included non-live tracks such as "[[Orange Romeda]]" (which was featured in neither of the live shows OR the [[Peel Session]],) and failed to include ALL of the [[Peel Session]] tracks included on the standard release.

It is also worthy of note that the bootlegger's artwork indicates that the [[All Tomorrow's Parties]] of 2001 took place in Los Angeles, California. The real [[ATP]] of 2001 took place in England.

All things considered, it is one of the more sloppy Boards of Canada bootlegs in circulation.

=Fake Artwork and Non-Existent Albums=

Occasionally releases are announced or artwork is produced by the community as a joke on the community. Sometimes these releases and artwork gain enough currency that they become recurring topics on IDM related forums. Here are a few of the more prevalent:

Live @ ATP

2009-12-12T14:23:27Z

Olson: /* Track listing */

'''Live @ ATP''' was a collection of the songs played during the perfomance of [[Boards of Canada]] at the 2001 [[wikipedia:All Tomorrow's Parties|All Tomorrow's Parties]]. Although unofficial and never released by Boards of Canada, they can be found widely on file-sharing networks in the complete form. As with all of their current live work, the collection includes songs that had never before been released and were unnamed.

All Tomorrow's Parties is an annual music festival. The 2001 edition, curated by [[wikipedia:Tortoise (band)|Tortoise]], took place at [[wikipedia:Camber Sands|Camber Sands]] Holiday Centre, New Lydd Road, Camber Rye, East Sussex from April 6 through April 8. Boards of Canada performed on April 7th.

2: Unreleased as of current date
=== Notes ===
==== Track 1 ====

This track is relatively slow-paced when compared to the rest of the brothers discography. It feautures deep, warm sounding synths that are played very slowly and segue into each other.

A portion of this track was included in the ''All Tomorrows Parties'' film, released in 2009. The credits give the title as "Echus".

==== Track 3 ====

This track is essentially the same piece used by Chris Cunningham in the Telecom Italia Ad featuring Leonardo Dicaprio.

==== Track 6 ====

This track was used exclusively as a loop on the Boards of Canada webpage circa 2000 and 2001. It can now be found [http://img385.imageshack.us/my.php?image=childrenxt3.swf here].

== Recordings ==
Recordings from this concert was never released. However, an audience bootleg from the show is widely available on mp3. Unfortunately, the quality is low, with heavy distortion in the lower frequencies.

He provided some additional information about the recording:

* Regarding the security:
** "Wasnt easy. I sewed the recorder into my jacket and microphone down the inside of my sleeve."
** "They were being real crazy about recordings and cameras....they had security taking discs and film. Pointing flashlights at people taking pictures."

* Regarding the quality:
**"Yeah I know the quality gets bad...I think it may have been a mix of being to close to the speaker and they seemed to get louder as the show went on. I had just purchased my MD right before my trip to Europe so it may have been a lack of experience with it as well. I got the AE set as well as some clips from some of the other performances. I think I still have the master MD's somewhere. Might be able to retransfer it and remaster eventually."

* Regarding the show itself:
**"At the time BOC was the highlight for me...since I had never seen them before...nor since. It was right after IABPOITC came out. My first time to EU. Day after I recorded the set I took a walk through the actual BPOITC that surrounded the festival venue and listened to the set. It was quite surreal."

On July 4, 2009, a new user named terekhova [http://www.twoism.org/forum/viewtopic.php?p=92536 came forth] on the [[Twoism forum]] with a partial recording he made at this show. While this recording consist of only two tracks, it has significantly better sound quality.
