Strange Soup/The Thrift Store Tape Discussion

Where did this paragraph come from? I must have either missed it or am thinking of something else entirely.

[mondaffe]

Was it not from the Tumblr?

While combing, make sure to keep this topic updated if there's any new finds!

[Sky and Trails]

Awesome! I don't know how I missed this!
This might be an odd question, but how much older is one of the BoC brothers than the other?

[SonnyJim]

There is still the matter of the date alluded to at the end of the dbz trail.

tvsg in numbers is 20 22 19 7 = 19th July 2022?

Probably not relevant but possibly maybe? Two brothers with a nostalgic tune.

19th July is the date humans fist landed on the moon in 1969 (BoC have a tune called 1969)

It's also the 200th day of the year except on leap years

The plot thickens...

[SonnyJim]

200 days also leaves 165 days left in the year something to do with channel 165 perhaps?

I'm still not convinced that dbz/seebirds/4226 has anything to do with the original VHS tape although I hope so, both cases the tunes are extremely cool.

The original tape has an audio hiss and there is nothing to suggest it is not made the old school way where as 4226 may have just ripped the clouds visuals and put it to some music also took the name from the video length of the op shop tape.

Either way I hope they come back with more music

[SonnyJim]

MCMXIX translates to 1919 and then the 20+2 reference aswell as the apollo mention is quite a lot of a coincedence

I know it got decoded to missing track and also foreshadow but still deserves a mention.

[Brendan Standing Alone]

I don't really get it. Something cool shows up so among the awesome excitement there are others that ride on this weird boat of snobbish doubt and pessimism. Maybe it's just harder for some people; maybe they've been let down too many times. I know many people have been dragged through the much with a lot of fakes, so I get that.

I think some characters here simply have very high opinions of themselves and think they know best.

I'm ready for more of this VHS tape stuff!
It's great music, and it reminds me of making music when I was younger.

The cryptic messages, I don't really understand. BUT, being on this forum for awhile I now understand that in order to get anyone to listen to your music, you have to have some sort of thing about it, like a gimmick or something. The VHS tape got my attention. I would have never paid attention if some random forum user said, "Please listen to my music."

Saying that....If anyone here makes music and would like a really huge fan, please send it to me! (I'm not saying I'm a fat fan, but a really big, wait...shit...world's biggest fan...nope...Dammit! I would be your fan. There.)

Thanks for sharing. There’s some music new to me, to dig into here for sure.

I've found some great stuff there! But thank you for sharing. I hadn't subscribed to it, and now I need to because there is some new stuff there, it seems.

Has anyone heard anything or discovered anything else that might give a clue as to where we can get more of this VHS stuff?

I still think it's BoC, but I know that's not everyone else's opinion.
If you know someone who knows who's behind the curtain...let me know. I want to ask this person every question on Earth. But I'm not admitting that it isn't BoC.

[hexagonFox]

ok

[hexagonFox]

I can't help but see similarities with Dayvan Cowboys music video and music
"this specific screen grab"

And the 11 missing tracks song with the surfers and the beach im stilling trying to identify.
maybe if anyone is good at enhancing video I notice a sign on the top right @8:04 that might say Casino or Cigars, its likely the building has been torn down and renovated since the video was shot. but it may help me narrow it down

the bass line is also very similar to poppy seed


I may sound crazy ... but I have a feeling this is related to boc...
I dont know why....I just kinda do.

there are more tapes waiting to be discovered .
I just need more help and more eyes


edit: currently looking at the album artwork for TCH and convinced its telling me something hahahah
help!!!!!
