Revision as of 17:27, 12 September 2018

Part of the nostalgic quality of Boards of Canada's music come from their extensive sampling of 70's and 80's era children television programs. One commonly sampled program is the US program Sesame Street, created by the Children's Television Workshop.

Confirmed samples

  • "Yeah, that's right" (Aquarius)
  • A drawing of a man is shown with a variety of different types of legs, which rotate like a slot machine. For each pair of legs, off-screen children voice their disapproval until the matching legs are finally shown.
  • "We'll sail to the stars" (Aquarius)
  • "Alphaquest: S": A girl investigates the letter S in her 'Alphaquest'.
