The idolized and enigmatic duo are back. After considerable speculation by their rabid fan base (not to mention the media following every step of the way), Boards of Canada have revealed that their new album Tomorrow's Harvest will be released on June 11 via their long time home, Warp Records. Musically, the album is somehow dark yet positive, with atmospheric dissonance and mind-bending melodic creations. [1]

Quotes

Mike Sandison

Mike Sandison

"The challenge with this record was crafting the tunes into a specific style and time period we want to reference. In fact it's not just the time period – we analyse the specific medium we're going for too." [2]
"Some tracks deliberately finish earlier than you want them to, like actual cues in older soundtracks where they've been ripped out of much longer original masters that nobody ever gets to hear." [2]
"There are quite a few influences on this record. Carpenter is kind of an easy reference point for most people though I'd say the main ones would be Fabio Frizzi , John Harrison and Mark Isham. We're very much into grim 70s and 80s movie soundtracks so there are maybe nods to composers such as Stefano Mainetti , Riz Ortolani, Paul Giovanni, Wendy Carlos , even Michael Nyman." [2]
"There's actually more use of subliminals on this record than on any previous album we've done, so we're interested to see what people will pick up on." [2]
""It's not post-apocalyptic so much as it is about an inevitable stage that lies in front of us. But it's better if listeners find the narrative themselves, in the titles and the sounds." [2]

Marcus Eoin

"We're based in Scotland, although some of the early sketches on this record were done in New Zealand. We have a main studio that is literally on a farm surrounded by deer and rabbits." [2]
"In fact if you look again at the San Francisco skyline on the cover it's actually a ghost of the city. You're looking straight through it." [2]
"We've been busy in our rehearsal space lately, so never say never." [2]

Trivia

  • The last track title, "Semena Mertvykh" means "seeds of the dead" in Russian. [3]
  • The cover art is the skyline of San Francisco as seen from the runway at the old Alameda Naval Air Station.
  • The 1977 Canadian film "Deadly Harvest" may have been a source of inspiration for Tomorrow's Harvest. [4]
  • The USA release date is 11 June 2013. If one takes into account the title of the album, the "Harvest" in the USA would be 12 June 2013. Written numerically, June 12th would be 6/12 or 6/6+6.
  • "Palace Posy" (track ten) is an anagram for 'apocalypse'.
