Favorite BoC Drum Track

[revertedhexagon]

Omg Nlogax

[Impossible Geometry]

Gyroscope hands down. Also, the kick drum pattern in Skyliner is so fucking good.

[Melts]

... Whitewater.

Or 5.9.78, but the drums in 5.9.78 aren't the best quality so it's hard to judge.

YES! I am in awe of all BOCs drums. I've always been proud of Scottish white boys contributing to the advancement of of "hip hop drum beats". I could babble on forever about sum boc drums! I must try hard not to post a couple novels here, lol.

As for white water, bow down to that splashing snare OMG! That fan video of breaching/splashing whales in the city fits PERFECT! Its like the snare is submerged 1 inch under water in a foot deep kiddie wade pool. The splashes echo set the stage for alot of dubstep percussion I always felt.

I couldn't be less proud of the "play-stop" button (tape deck/recorder?) clicks in RFTD!! So good, I hope they're from their actual childhood recorders used for past material. I've always wanted to bring a tape recorder to the ghettoblaster isle in walmart, and record every models play/stop/eject/ click sounds just for 1 highhat track, so to create more, but barely discernible patterns in the HH. I see this in alot of dubstep too. But congrats to boc for it, dreams come true!

I love the simplicity of Dawn Chorus.

[DisgruntledPorcupine]

An Eagle In Your Mind or Pete Standing Alone. Kid For Today maybe too because of how it goes with the slide projector sound.

The unknown track from warp's 10th anniversary! ( don't remember track 7 or 8? ) Machinedrum edit helps the quality a tad bit. These drums are simply vicious!

Can't forget Aquarius as well.

[EarlyCuyler]

made an account just to say Slow This Bird Down, can't believe nobody mentioned it

[joshkowski]

Whoa i changed my mind.

The broken drum remix!

I can't find the words to describe this masterpiece of a beat.

All hail this omnipotent organic tidal wave of exploding snares and cymals and shakers.

and beck going wooooooooooooo

wooooooooooooooooooooooo

woooooooooooooooo

. So what i drank 100 beers.

made an account just to say Slow This Bird Down, can't believe nobody mentioned it

yeah, the percussion on Slow This Bird Down is amazing.

I will add,

Chromakey Dreamcoat and,

Palace Posey

[El Camino]

Pete Standing Alone wins it for me.

[Jonse]

Julie and Candy/Dead Dogs Two (they're basically the same thing beat wise)

[El Camino]

That Dead Dogs Two remix is so good that everytime i listen to the original it's like there's something missing.

Also love the drum sounds on music is math.

Jacquard Causeway

[mc10101]

Where do you start? I love the drums that creep you out a bit like Hi Scores, Sixtyten, Sunshine Recorder, Jaquard Causeway. Also love the funkiness of Nothing Is Real

[d e n]

TO THE WIND

that track grooves.

is anyone here familiar with Grimes? the vocal part on To The Wind sounds exactly like her. Except produced a decade before.

I actually dig Grimes for some reason though. I think she's got some real intentions.

[Elexen]

I think the whole Hi Scores EP is a well rounded exemplar of their rhythms. That EP has always been the quintessential BoC for me. It's got a little of everything.

[skam]

older thread bump, but chinook is the best drum track by faaaaar imo.

[Crystalspike]

1969, Dawn Chorus, Audiotrack 12b, Ice Cooly Beatnik, Gyroscope, She Is P, Sixtyniner, and Skyliner.
