"Eno Test" and "Parson" are two tracks often mis-attributed to Boards of Canada. The tracks are sometimes credited to "Marumari & Boards of Canada".

Discovery

The songs were discovered on various P2P networks. They are among the earliest mislabeled tracks; "Eno Test" was first mentioned on idm-l on May 14, 2000, with "Parson" first mentioned in another post (in conjuction with "Eno Test") on Jan 12, 2001. They were included on the earliest archived copy of DavidAC's BoC pages, dated August 2002.

Possible Origin

The track "Eno Test" is listed on http://www.bradleysalmanac.com/tradelist.htm as part of a Stereolab bootleg named B-Sides Collected. It is on the third disc and credited as "Eno Test (with Marumari)." While this could just be a fan compilation it could actually be the original source. If anyone has this bootleg, they could confirm the origin of the track.

Unclear origin

It is commonly believed that both tracks are the work of Marumari alone. However, nowhere in Marumari's discography do any tracks with these names appear.

After previewing tracks from available Marumari albums, they do not appear to be any of the tracks on the follow Marumari works:
