GENERAL NEW RELEASE SPECULATION TOPIC

[luminousdusk]

I'm not hearing circle here at all.. But it does some very familiar - like the first track of that EP by 3.33

Does anyone remember that EP? It had an owl on the cover, the cover was black and red. I had it years ago and lost it and have never found it since. I'm pretty sure I heard about it here or somewhere else boc related. It had a very dark industrial type sound to it

Is this the track you mean?

Yes this is it! Thanks!

I feel a bit stupid for not finding it on YouTube but to be honest I was just always looking for a black and red cover with the owl.

Is that your channel? How did you first come across this EP? Because I can't remember how I came across it.

Shame I can only seem to see 2 tracks.

Not sure why but to thought there was a bell tolling at the beginning of this track.. Memories are strange.

hopefully they're doing *something* for mhtrtc's 25th this year

Those are the thumbnails for the fanmade music videos for Roygbiv and Poppy Seed Reprise (titled "The Child's Prison" IIRC) Respectively. What they're doing there of all places I don't have an explanation for.

Hope it's not just messed up code. And if it is, then that doesn't diminish hope any less.

Anyone else notice that Geogaddi's got 23 tracks?

Mini update if anyone was interested; it was definitely broken Youtube code. I tried this out with a completely different playlist and got an image. Just wanted to get that out there so no one got the wrong idea.

Have hope, friends! The playlists were still updated really recently (even if no noticeable change). Perhaps our friends are beginning to stir?

Huh. That owl on 3:33's discogs is similar to the one on the newcleardawn website. The feet are a bit different though.

No I’d never heard of it til you mentioned it but was intrigued and went looking. There are a surprising number of artists called 3.33

So theres me looking on and off for at least 3 years, Then I give a vague description and you nail it first try lol

And yes quite a few artists named 3.33, Makes it rather difficult to find the right one.. Except in your case

Huh. That owl on 3:33's discogs is similar to the one on the newcleardawn website. The feet are a bit different though.

Yeah your right! Definite Minerva vibes going on, I'm sure the newcleardawn site led me down an owl shaped rabbit hole and then I found this 3.33 shaped rabbit

I haven't dug around deep enough to find it yet but I swear the intro track to the EP has wind whistling with a bell tolling in the distance, Really sets up for that murdered-out sound

Perhaps our friends are beginning to stir?

Perhaps so, Just keep posting anything odd you come across, Never know who's gonna stumble on a clue!

Edit.. Just so happened to post this at 23.33. Its not a coincidence.. The power of 3.33 is real

I want to BOClieve they will. But I dunno. I think that this album is simply gonna happen at a random date.

But I do want my Chinese DemBOCracy at some point. Surely they won't go over 10 years, will they?

Awesome thanks!

I listened to a really cool episode of a podcast called 'Stuff to blow your mind' last night on the wonders back-masking and hidden tracks on CD and vinyl, I knew they would need to mention BoC.. And they did! They talked briefly about the 'God with horns' sample in YCFTS and then went on to talk about some cool ways in which music is hidden on vinyl, most notably a part where they discuss some records having multiple lead-in grooves, or having grooves hidden between grooves, leading the stylus to follow different grooves depending on where exactly the stylus was placed on the record at the beginning of a track! Also how on one of Jack Whites albums there are grooves hidden under the actual label of the record itself which are playable by placing the stylus on the label.

It all made me wonder if maybe there are some hidden grooves on BoC records, But I figure they would have been found by now.

The rest of the show was mostly quite common knowledge I guess but still a fun listen.

Here's the link to anyone who wants to hear it..

So I asked a certain AI to generate a poem about Boards of Canada's fifth album and it's release date. I got a master work:


Boards Of Canada's 5th Album Poem


The wait for Boards of Canada's fifth sound,
Has left fans yearning for what's to be found.
Rumors swirl and speculation grows,
When will the release date finally show?

The anticipation builds with every day,
As fans hope for a new album to play.
With sounds that evoke memories of the past,
Boards of Canada's music will forever last.

The date is unknown, a mystery untold,
But the wait will be worth it, we're told.
Their music takes us on a journey through time,
A soundscape of memories and emotions combined.

So we'll wait with bated breath, counting the days,
Hoping soon their fifth album will be released in ways.
A work of art, a masterpiece to behold,
Boards of Canada's music will forever unfold.


Also a poem about the lack of BOC releases on Warp's label:

Warp Records, a label known for its eclectic sound,
Releasing music from artists that are both underground and renowned.
From Aphex Twin to Autechre, they've got it all,
But one name is missing, leaving fans to feel small.

Boards of Canada, a duo with a unique style,
Their music evokes memories, making fans smile.
With sounds that are both nostalgic and new,
Fans eagerly await for more music from the two.

But as time goes by, and releases come and go,
Boards of Canada are nowhere to be found on the label's flow.
Fans wonder why, and speculate with glee,
When will their music finally be released by Warp Records, can it be?

So as we wait, with bated breath, we hold on tight,
To the memories of Boards of Canada, a duo so bright.
And hope that someday, their music will once again grace,
The ears of fans everywhere, released by Warp Records with taste.
