It's funny having both Boards of Canada and Autechre as my favourite artists.

One releases music at a very steady rate and the other one is well... Boards of Canada, lol

Keep an eye on that website, I seriously wouldn't be suprised if ??????? turns out to be Autechre now.

Anyway, I'm off to go listen to PLUS, stay strong BoC fans!

So the ??????? is missing one ? if it was trying to spell Autechre. But ironically the 2nd set of ????s could spell PLUS. Wouldn't that be funny if the just miscounted. That said, there's no way it's repping a new BoC album.

No offense guys but I don't know how anyone could listen to this. I'm trying here but this is not music. It just sounds like a bunch of weird sounds effects.

Enjoy it but meh. Hard pass.

Well, music is random sounds until you make sense of them.

This makes no sense in my head I guess.

this is assuming the amount of question marks matters... and if it did I don’t think they would be incorrectly counted... that being said, “Remixes” does fit within the parentheses so if we were going the question mark route I would guess it’s “Autechre - SIGN (Remixes)”
no information at this moment in time

imho the stuff within the parentheses will be (BRC-XXX).

You know when you put a cold beverage on the table and it leaves a ring of condensation? The Autechre covers look like a radioactive version of that!

Also I just think they haven't updated that page. But it's obvious Plus is the surprise album.

I really think it would be more BOC-like for them to release/make an announcement after all of this (like on Jan 22nd) since it fits with the whole "outsider" thing.

Also perhaps they want to release the album after 2020 AFTER we've reaped Tomorrow's Harvest :wink:

The album (PLUS) is being well recieved by the autechre community, but autechre's music has never been that aproachable for newcomers. I think their music has VERY disconnected patterns at times, but the beats are still there. However, the main reason I listen to Autechre is for the sound design, which is actually the same reason I listen to a lot of BoC.

Take Gyroscope for example.
