That's because they don't hold copyright on those songs I would guess. Someone should see if its possible to do a search like this on the UK version of BMI, the MCPS-PRS Alliance..cos BoC would also have tracks registered with them.
The preparation for a dive is always a tense time.

Indeed and even more so they should be happy if they've not been accused of copyright infringement either! ;) But I guess their labels got that shizzle settled.

Boards of Canada is Marcus Eoin Sandison and Michael PETER Sandison

Might be old though little-known news since Googling the latter name gives a result (see for yourself).

Wait a second, I'll fill you in about that Google result..

HERE

Marcus's full name is Marcus Eoin Sandison and I'm 99% sure Mike's is Michael Peter Sandison. They are definitely brothers. I was friends with them at School. Don't ask me to give out private details about their family etc. I respect their privacy. Names and birthdays are no biggie, however. KToiBalToi (talk) 01:45, 3 February 2008 (UTC)


Unless this KToiBalToi cheated and also used the site I used, this makes him pretty reliable.

Look what he says about Old Tunes (excerpt):

The girl on the cover of "a few old tunes" is Louise Campbell, the younger sister of (Peter) Iain Campbell who has worked with them on other art projects. I think it was taken as a still from an old family video.

Finally some new/interesting 'news'. If something of this ends up on a new record this topic will be epic indeed. ;)

I'll bet the brothers read what is written within Twoism.
And I am REALLY curious what they would think about such findings about their work...

Perhaps, one day we get a post by one of them :)


And by the way. When I saw this Kia-Ora ad, it felt some kind of familiar to me although I couldn't have seen it over here in germany before, I think.
May the force be with you!

I guess the name of the track was just a reference to it. I didn't even know it was the name of a drink, here in New Zealand we use it as a greeting. The other tracks could be ones they've only performed live, you can get royalties for performing your own song.
Anyway, good find!


I loved that ad as a kid for some reason (i wasn't allowed to drink it.. made me a bit hyper as i remember :shock: ..)

Great find.. Maybe those mystery titles could simply be album/EP tracks that didn't make the final edit but were registered for copywrite before the final listing?

edit: actually that wouldn't make sense as they appear to be registered after/between releases going by the numerical order.. perhaps outtakes registered after for potential future release?

None of all "new" songs appear to have been scrobbled/submitted to last.fm, if that means anything..

was the "i think i've seen it at work somewhere" a quote in reference to that guy who said he had all sorts of rare boc shit at the record shop he worked at, then said he was a real estate agent and went all fucking mental when people called him up on it?
