| + | * [http://thequietus.com/users/10546 Joe Clay]: "All I wrote for this one was: "Drone. Heavy. Aeroplane over my house." And I'm afraid I can't really remember what it sounded like. I can tell you that the title translates as "Seeds of the Dead" in Russian." <ref>http://thequietus.com/articles/12364-boards-of-canada-tomorrows-harvest-review</ref> | ||
| − | * [[ | + | *This track was used in the "[[Videos#Tomorrow.27s_Harvest|Tomorrow's Harvest Transmission]]" video which was accessible by inputting the 6 6-digit numbers on the [[cosecha-transmisiones.com]] website. <ref>{{#widget:YouTube|id=e2lyYEUPat8}}</ref> |
| − | + | * Playing up this recording's "cinematic" angle, and following the telepath's instructions to try listening "up and down," I reversed the order of the Tomorrow's Harvest track listing in my player: Try starting with Semena Mertvykh and ending with Gemini. Further evidence to support doing this is the version of Semena Mertvykh in the Cosecha Transmisiones teaser/herald's soundtrack, the remarkable overlay of the Reach For The Dead video forward & in reverse (see http://vimeo.com/66983696), as well as the performers' comments regarding the palindromic nature of Tomorrow's Harvest. I realize how subjective this sounds, but listening to the tracks in this order I get the impression that the more upbeat second half (that is, in the released order) is actually a sequence of cautiously optimistic vs. antagonistic/opposing vignettes, possibly ending in tragedy. In this order, Gemini might be a kind of post-credits epilogue that hints at the protagonist's failure. (e.g., Last Rights Of Spring/"Twin gods of death at the end of the tunnel" at http://www.brainwashed.com/common/htdocs/discog/loci1.php?site=coil08 & Virgil's The Aeneid Book VII at http://www.poetryintranslation.com/PITBR/Latin/VirgilAeneidVII.htm#_Toc3086157) | |
