"THE COLOR PURPLE: From Aphex Twin to Autechre, Chris Cunningham to Boards of Canada, Steve Beckett Gives Us a Guide to Warpâs 20 Years" is a 2009 interview with surviving Warp Records co-founder Steve Beckett published on self-titled magazine's website on 4 September 2009.
In the article, Beckett comments on the label's artists, including a section on Boards of Canada:
Unlike with Aphex [Twin], Iâm in constant contact with them. Theyâre just absolute perfectionistsâthey wonât let anything slip through the net that they arenât 100-percent comfortable with. Theyâll literally have 150 to 200 tracks and try to narrow it all down to the best 18 for an album, or something like that. Theyâll throw away two or three albums to get to one.
Most people look at them as electronic artists, but they can also sit down and strum acoustic guitars, or play the piano, next to each other and sing harmonies. Theyâve just got amazing musical knowledge and skills that comes through the music. Theyâre definitely closer to [a new record], but their concept of time is different than most people.
