Warp10-08 is an unreleased track by Boards of Canada that was performed as part of their set at Warp Records' 10th Anniversary Party on November 5th 1999, and subsequently distributed widely on bootleg recordings of the performance. As of 2025, the track's actual title remains unknown, and no studio or soundboard recording of the track has surfaced.

Comments[edit]

At over 10 minutes in length, the track is the longest Boards of Canada track to have been heard publicly.
The track is notable for being Boards of Canada's earliest known use of a vocoder. Boards of Canada would later use vocoders on "In a Beautiful Place out in the Country" (from the EP of the same name) in 2000, and on numerous tracks on Geogaddi in 2002.

Samples/Lyrics[edit]

0:11 onward - Vocoded voice repeating throughout the track, possibly saying "Marcus singing", "Funky singing"^[1], "Love is in me"^[2], or "Focus in me"^[3]
5:35 onward - Another vocoded voice which repeats throughout the track, which can be heard on its own at the end, saying "[That's] the one! Oh this [is fun!]", sampled from the intro of "Colby's Song" from "Make A Joyful Noise: Introducing Colby"^[4]^[5]
7:10 - A woman saying "One, two, three and four" in an American/Canadian accent, possibly from a vintage children's educational tape or retro domestic appliance advert
7:24 - A sample of children laughing similar to In a Beautiful Place out in the Country drenched in reverb
7:50 onward - Various samples chopped up in a similar fashion to Telephasic Workshop, Spiro, and the ATP version of Sunshine Recorder
9:54 onward - The laugh from the beginning of "R35TT A04" can be heard, though with a rhythmic gate applied. It is most audible at the very end of the track, around 10:32, when the drums cut out.

Notes[edit]

You can hear a 'reproduction' by Machinedrum on SoundCloud, which has new drum programming and bassline
