Editing Discography - bocpages

An overview of [[Registered_works|registered works]].

== Early vs. Late Releases ==
[[Boards of Canada]]'s discography essentially falls in two camps. 
*The well-known releases that followed after the duo were signed, first to [[SKAM]] and then to [[Warp Records]], which can be purchased in any decent record shop. 
*The releases which precede this, of which original copies are exceptionally rare. Much of the knowledge we have of the latter is due to [[The Cosmic Crofter]]'s webpage, which is now defunct.
**The exceptions: copies of [[BoC Maxima]] and the "Old Tunes" tapes which are almost certainly legitimate are readily available on the p2p networks.
** These older items are '''NOT AVAILABLE'''; only friends and family of BoC have heard them. 
*** In addition, three extracts of genuine old tracks came from a BoC-related website that no longer exists. They are: "duffy" (extract) (0:24), [[Wouldn't You Like To Be Free]] (extract) (0:56), [[circle]] (extract) (0:35), [[duffy]] is a gentle and innocent track a little bit similar to [[Melissa Juice]]; "wouldn't you like to be free?" features massed guitars; "circle" has slowly changing high-pitched glacial tones, fitting the Alaskan theme of the album it comes from.

== Fakes ==
Many albums which purport to be other rare releases are commonplace too, but almost without exception, these have proven to be fakes of varying qualities so far. 

* Among the fakes, the most common are "[[eno test]]" and "[[parson]]", wrongly taken to be by [http://www.discogs.com/artist/Marumari Marumari] and [[Boards of Canada|BoC]], whereas they are by [http://www.discogs.com/artist/Marumari Marumari] alone. A few other such mis-labelled tracks go around from time to time. 
* "[[Stry Craty Bya]]" (as seen [http://albumart.org/viewall_mp3.php?srchkey=Boards%20Of%20Canada here], for instance) is actually "[[eno test]]".
* Other fakes include a longer version of "[[circle]]" which sounds nothing like the genuine short extract. "[[trillions]]" (3:31) is a fake, as is "[[treeline]]" '(1:12).
* Another set of fake MP3s that went around were called "[[nskino]]", "[[gridlock]]", "[[lavender trapezoids]]", "[[golden hinterland]]", "[[rhomboid]]", and maybe some more. 
**We've been told that these are mislabeled tracks by [http://www.discogs.com/artist/CiM CiM] "[[nskino]]" is really "[[disco alta]]", "[[rhomboid]]" is really ''[[isempty']]", and so on (thanks, MCBPete). With any luck, the fakes will eventually stop being labelled as [[Boards of Canada|BoC]].
* "[[Slow Bicycle]]", a song by [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/múm múm], is often mislabeled as "[[Seward Leaf]]".
* A recent fake that surfaced is the track "[[Sur Round]]'' [http://www.twoism.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=4388], [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UNouwiE8rRA]--[[User:Fredd-E|Fredd-E]] 15:00, 25 August 2008 (CEST)
* A track by the name of "[[Chameleon]]" was featured on [http://www.apple.com/itunes iTunes] a couple of days at the end of October 2010. 
**The same forger also put another fake up on [http://www.youtube.com YouTube] named "[[Red Sky Night]]". [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IIadksm7wjE] [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=czSHpQl47J8] --[[User:Fredd-E|Fredd-E]] 17:35, 3 November 2010 (CET)

=== As Hell Interface ===
The [[Hell Interface]] side-project seems to be more in the nature of a remix project than [[Boards of Canada]] proper. The works released under the HI name are: remixes of [[Trapped|Colonel Abrams' Trapped]] and of [[Midas Touch|Midnight Star's Midas Touch]], and a strange little speech-only track called [[The Story of Xentrix]]. Can this last track be described as a remix? Most of the speech seems to be synthesized; however, the last few words sound rather different - perhaps from another source (just speculation).

There used to be link here to an animated trailer here, for a program called "Zentrix", which was taken down after a while. By request, here it is again (be aware that the trailer is not necessarily related to the Hell Interface track, except by the similarity of names). The trailer can be found at the Zentrix site [http://www.zentrix.tv/].

=== BoC Old Website ===
[[Boards of Canada]]'s old website disappeared in 2000. Some fans managed to capture music loops that played on the site, many of which were simply [[Boards of Canada]] fiddling around, but some early works later became full songs. A 15 minute YouTube video surfaced on August 1st, 2011, containing all the loops on the site, and is embedded below.
* [[Time Apple]]
* [[Flutes]]
* [[Trails]]
* [[Gann]]


Loops also found on interactive webpage:
