We’re picking up good vibrations!

Moz and and I compiled a playlist of artists mentioned by Boards of Canada in their interviews. Sorted by era.

Many times these are artists they have been influenced by or really like. 

The song selection  is based on three things:

  1. The song is chosen in correspondence to the interview era. Example: they first mentioned Autechre in the MHTRTC interviews era so we chose an Autechre song not older than 1998.

  2. We took into account the context of the interview quote about the mentioned artists. Example: sometimes they specifically mentioned the guitar play of an artist so we made sure to include a guitar heavy song of that artist.

  3. Our own taste is factored in too, especially if BoC only dropped a name without much context.

Vibrations

Playlists:

Spotify - YouTube - SoundCloud Go+

The playlist title is inspired by quotes in Two Aesthetes of Electronic Music which is an interview by Ariel Kyrou & Jean-Yves Leloup originally published online Jun. 1998 on the Virgin Megaweb website.

  Quote

Q: “You also mentioned psychedelism.”
A: "Yes, we immersed ourselves in the art and psychedelic music of the time. We often listen again to groups from the late 60's."

  Quote

Q: "Good Vibrations?”
A: "Yes, that's exactly the sort of thing we mean: the Beach Boys of the "Good Vibrations" era, the Beatles of 1967. The Beatles really became enthralling to us through their psychedelism. Also, some inspired moments in films, not to mention the Incredible String Band."

Very cool, will have to check it out.

I'm trying to think of other material they may have recommended. The Campfire Mixtape that Marcus put together for one magazine interview. That's got another 10 amazing tracks on it. Of course there is the Societas X tape which is incredibly varied and psychadelic. And the only other example I can think of is two albums/ tracks mentioned from this postcard to Bola

Calm down Fredd, I'll have a listen later. Though I actually know quite a lot of those tunes, maybe three quarters of them. After your last visit I was hoping for something much more juicy than a playlist with some odds and ends on. The Wait (that's another Killing Joke tune) continues....

I am calm. I just wanted to know what your reply meant. I am however truly sorry our little harmless project didn’t live up to your expectations. 😘 But in our defense there’s more to BoC than the wait for LP5. 🍊

My appetite for new BOC has reached fever pitch. Usually I like a little nibble when I go out for a meal but I'd prefer to skip starters and just go straight to the main course. Like a whole suckling pig on a plate! That's how hungry I am 🍺

Samsies but on lysergic - At daybreak I looked out window and saw a cloud formation that looked like skull and crossbones - happened over a decade ago and I still remember clear as day

No. I'm just saying I'm ready for the main meal, not the sides. Nothing to do with bacon lol 😀 (though obviously there is plenty of possible bacon on a pig....)

You have to get use to my Wolfman gibberish Fredd! I'd suggest not reading too much tbh.
