I love every BoC song, but sometimes I find my self skipping over some of the same songs when I'm doing shuffle on my iPod. I do have all availible BoC songs in my iTunes library and I want to know some BoC tracks you guys have least listened to. Here are some that have significantly less plays on my ipod than my favs. Maybe you could give me some suggestions on what I'm missing out on?
Red Moss
Macquarie Ridge
Sherbet Head
'84 Pontiac Dream
Chromakey Dreamcoat
Oscar See Through Red Eye
Boqurant
I Will Get It Tattooed
Rodox Video
Finity
Carcan
She is P

Magic Window (What's the point of actively playing this track? There is none. It only gets played because I haven't gotten up to change the album or press stop yet.)
The "I love you" track after Eagle In Your Mind.
The track before Happy Cycling (last track on Maxima too). Uh, ok. =l
Odd Nosdam DC remix. It succeeds only at putting me to sleep. Sorry.
Oh and roygbiv. yea I went there. Nothing pretentious about this, it's easily one of their better tracks and I don't spoil myself by playing it often.
Sorry I don't know many track names, I listen to the CDs and don't read the display information because the player is inside my cabinet and I keep it closed. And the cases are stored as well so I don't really bother learning said names.
Don't care for or listen to any old tunes enough to know the tracks well, so all of them I guess. BoC Maxima is as far back in the discog as I go. I'm sure the old tunes stuff is good if I pay attention to it, but the only format you can find it online blows so I just don't bother(crappy sounding mp3s).

it's harder for me to tell now since i haven't listened to much BoC hardly at all in a while, buuuuut...
probabllyyyy....
most of The Campfire Headphase is too slow and lazy for whatever pacing my day is on
Opening the Mouth
Alpha and Omega
The Devil is in the Details
A is to B as B is to C
Corsair
BASEFREE. if i want a penis to drill into my brain i'll listen to some damn Vsnares. and this goes double for Autechre's Bronchus.

All of IaBPoitC. Sorry. it's not because i just straight out don't like it, but they're all quite long BoC songs with such subtle variations that you have to really love what they're on about just to notice it, and I'm more like "eh this is okay" about them so the little subtle tweaks and changes have minimal impact on me. the overall sound is boring.
telephasic workshop
triangles and rhombuses
sixtyten - these 3 get skipped alot even though i like them a fair amount - i'm rarely in the mood
rue the whirl - fuck this, it's like downloading a track off napster and finding out it loops every 3 seconds. it's like spinning around too many times and falling down and holding your breath and wanting the dizziness to stop BUT IT DOESN'T.
smokes quantity - sometimes i am in love with this song. sometimes it's just grating.
ahhhh, that felt good

I agree. Although I may not "love" every track on the album, I don't think it's a bad album whatsoever. In fact, most of the tracks have so much going on, so many layers, one could argue (not me

) that you can see the evolution in their production (quality of sound and sampling).
