Boards of Canada....

"Music Has A Right To Children" is my favorite 'tho I have not heard the newest one.
DCT

I have all those albums, my favourite is MhtRtC although CH is pretty good as well. I found Geogaddi a bit disappointing.

Peter

Hi Arf!
I have all and all of them makes me happy.
The last one is a bit "distant" from BOC sound, but there's a couple of pieces in it that i like as well.

Thanks guys!

Music has a Right to Children it is then, as a starter for ten.....

Cheers,
Ali

Hi Ali,

There is also an EP called "In a Beautiful Place Out In The Country" on the Warp label (WAP144CD). You HAVE to get that as well as Music...

If you have any probs tracking it down just let me know

We had this subject a couple of months ago.
I think the new album The Campfire Headphase is the best yet, but I seem to be alone on that one. I think we all agree though that Beautiful Place In The Country is a must have.

I wasnt here then

....neither was I, hence the question......

Was listening to 'Music has a Right to Children' last night, along with 'Global Communication - 76:14' Oh, and 'Joni Mitchell's - Both Sides Now' which completed the latest order from Amazon.....was quite impressed with all of them to be honest!

Am slowly increasing my Joni Mitchell collection, but haven't found anything to top Blue yet.....

Another BoC album is definitely on the list, and already in the shopping basket to save for later.....

Anybody know more about the Global Communication compilations....???
76:14 was my first, and I liked it....

Cheers,
Ali

Another G.C. cd to track down is (bizarely enough) by Chapterhouse - "Blood Music" retranslated by GC. - Wonderful!

On the Dedicated label DEDCD013 - You may have to hunt around a bit but its worth it.

Cheers

(PS Global Communication are a group not a compilation)

Ooops.....my bad....

Another BoC to get is 'Twoism' Shortish EP.

Something else that I like in this style is Global Underground 'After Hours'

GU - After Hours

If I was to buy 'Music has a Right to Children' would you recomend CD or vinyl? How is the vinyl quality?

Thanks


Peter

If you fancy your chance on G.C / Chapterhouse theres one on that well known auction site.

Put Global Communication in the search and youll find it.

Not cheap tho!

Pete M

I've got the album on vinyl and I've never even thought about its sound quality, so I think that must mean it sounds okay.

Don't know about the CD, but I guess LP is a safe bet.

Rgds,
Peter

I only have Campfire Headphase but can strongly recommend it

Richard

As chance would have it I found a CD copy of the Campfire Headphase in my local independent record shop. Bought it. Very nice too.

Peter

Best one is Music
Second best is Geo (which is excellent, and sometimes becomes the best)
Campfire I just can't get on with, and have been into them for years and thought I loved all their stuff. Oh well...

True.
When i got i did think they made a "contract" album.

I've found that BoC albums take 7 or 8 listens before i really like them...CH took a couple more, but now I like it! There's a new ep, Trans Canada Highway, on it's way at the end of May, plus an accompanying video that can be found on the Warp Records web site: http://www.warprecords.com/
Previews available at Bleep http://www.bleep.com/

Regarding Global Communication, I strongly recommend their album as Reload: 'A Collection of Short Stories' if you can find a copy...

I've just got my order in (it was the free sticker that sold it) and added 'Music has the right to children' which the Forum seems to highly recommend.

Cheers Lee

I've just received my copy of Trans Canada Highway (along with the Aphex Twin 'Chosen Lords' collection) and not only do I have a free sticker, I have a free copy of the Dayvan Cowboy video (linked above) on dvd! Warp rock!

Lee, thanks for bringing this thread back on top....have been meaning to add to it for a while...

Campfire Headphase is now in my shopping basket - it's me birfday on Sat. although I'm stuck out here (off-shore) at work until next week....will see if anybody bought it off me wish list, and if not then a wee spree will be had....

Oh-oh - got to run and tweak a turbine.....more later!

Cheers,
Ali
