Yes, but what does it mean?

[EDIT] - Went down a rabbit hole because its a dry dry desert out here, the person who posted this video also has a really clean upload of ATP-02 with >1k views, no crowd noises, seemingly good quality, anybody know a thing about it?

Lol, I see the speculation has finally arrived. I don't see anything here other than some great art. WARC? We Are Reasonable Clankers? This is just some warp related thing. I don't think any of this has anything to do with boards of canada but I will happily eat my words. Warp just likes to use the speculation as a marketing tool, its like their major thing. Gets boring after a while. Just my opinion.

I went to go check it out and it appears to be a fan remaster. The description leads to this Youtube channel https://www.youtube.com/@mr.udders2421 which posted the same remaster. While its nothing official it seems, it is very good quality

Just seen this on the subreddit. Whomever suggested putting it in a 'vhs reader', handclap from me. Beyond that withholding comment because we've been here before too many times to count.

Not a lot of info is it. Would need to know more about where it came from to be excited by it. Doesn't look like a lot of tape on the spool either

Its not even orange. This is clearly a fake. Personally I think Boards of Canada are very unlikely to mess around with VHS at this point. Film? a lot more likely. But never VHS I think. There's been talks about film footage resurfacing for a long time, its very unlikely they would take the time to digitize it onto VHS. Most likely expect a film reel to pop up out of nowhere.

It’s not everyday you just happen to so sensationally scoop some of the Incredible Warp Lighthouse Party lore involving your favorite band forever all by yourself, but here we are. This nearly 26 year-old photo was sitting somewhere on the ‘net for about 4 months, and no one noticed until I came along searching for something completely different. Oh yeah; I should also probably mention they performed for the last time in public 25 years ago this very next tomorrow’s evening after today’s Easter Monday observed in Canada. And why not? Miracles Really Do Happen Everyday.

- Marks the listing as "unofficial."
- Also says it would be an insult to BOC post it.

Why would they care? It's not like they or Warp have stepped in to debunk the million other fakes and hoaxes :roll:

i sent an email to Andy of Ochre to confirm the validity of this tape...

hopefully will get a reply tomorrow

my thought is that this guy seems like he has no reason to lie about this

I agree. Prob attempting to wait for confirmation from warp or hs to see if this is valid and if it is okay to rip/post. Who knows if this confirmation will actually happen though.

Apparently an indication we missed LP5 and LP6.
Possible Teaser for seventh Boards of Canada album?

The reason to lie is to watch everyone’s reaction.

account created in 2008, musician since 2005, not an active member in the BoC community (Twoism, TMW Discord, KEYOSC)

instead of just lying, this guy names a real Ochre employee as his source, which he would either think nobody would call his bluff about, or he's telling the truth.

you have to profile these people every time a "hoax" pops up like this. this does not seem like an attention seeker looking to get under people's skin
