Ok. You've got a point there. But why do they also keep silent about the recent remix good friday by Why? Do they perhaps think this remix is irrelevant rubbish?

I quote their website twice:
February 2005:
Boards of Canada have contributed a remix to Beck's forthcoming album 'Guero'.
The BOC remix of 'Broken Drum' appears on the deluxe 2-disc version of the album, due out on March 29th 2005.

Oct 2003:
BOC have collaborated with cLOUDDEAD on an ultra-psychedelic alternative version of their forthcoming single 'Dead Dogs Two' to be released in January 2004.
The Boards of Canada remix will be available on the 'Dead Dogs Two" 12"
(available on Jan 26th 2004 in the UK/Europe on Big Dada, and on Jan 27th 2004 in the US on Mush.)

Apparently in the past it was important enough to announce their new remixes. Why i


sn't it important now?


that's true, i think guy who was maintaining their website is living in switzerland for a year and they obviously haven't been keeping up with it


so why the fuck have you been so condescending all this time when you could have just said that? first you say BoC dont have the time to maintain website, then you agree that someone else does it for them after fredd-e says he knows the BoC themselves dont maintain it.

and you still haven't answered my question.

I go away for 5 days and we get another one of these goddamn threads. Can't you morons just have some patience..I mean look how long it took Radiohead to release In Rainbows. I really don't care WHEN boards release their new record as long as they do it sometime. There's plenty of other music to listen to out there.

:roll:
The preparation for a dive is always a tense time.

True, but Najm ad-Din Ayyub is always speaking as if he has inside knowledge. It would be interesting to know if he actually does, or whether he just likes the attention.


Like this quote from THIS thread...

that's probably just a misunderstanding from something you read. magazine interviews are not the best place to get info right as they're usually pieced together from dictaphone recordings. - i know the band personally - they still do most of their work at the main studio (they have three studios, and i'm doing something for our next record with them at hexagon sun).


Are you quoting that in order to disprove me? Because about two posts down in the same thread you say that you are sceptical about him.

I must admit I hadn't read that though until you pointed it out. Thanks.

Najm ad-Din Ayyub, what is your recording/artist/band name? just curious...

Oh, thanks.

This thread has got a little crazy now though. Who really cares whether he's legitimate? Take what he says with a pinch of salt and if it turns out to be true then we can believe what he says more next time.

Sorry, what I meant was that if he says something concrete about a release or whatever (unlikely) and then it turns out to be true, we should take him more seriously in future.

As it is now, I doubt he knows much more than the rest of us.
