Boards of Canada Info on BOC's Back Catalogue

i won't link to it so as to keep the n00bs out, but there was speculation that the pre-Twoism releases have not been re-released due to legal issues arising from other band members being a part of BOC at the time.

in response to that, hex_official posted:

All the music Boards of Canada have ever written or recorded, from way

back in the beginning, has been written by Mike and Marcus alone.

Early works have not been released so far purely because they didn't

want to, for artistic reasons.

Thanks for the heads up Al, I haven't read the Yahoo! group in months.

Here's the actual post (not that there is any more to it than what was quoted above).

lol, i purposely did not to link to the group so as to prevent an influx of twoism n00bs

my copy of twoism says that chris horne was involved in writing it too....

The sense of elitism on this board is, as always, completely intoxicating.

That credit was removed from the subsequent 2002 Warp reissue. It's unclear just what exactly Chris Horne's contributions were to that release. That Wiki article, btw, was written by one of those FUCKING Twoism noobs. :omg:

I think a larger issue would be the rather legally dubious samples used in some of the tracks (The Way You Show on A Few Old Tunes for example using quite a large segment of the Kool and The Gang song).

Ouch, I wrote those sentences.

Oh, wait, I thought you were quoting the Wikipedia one.

I wrote the Fredd-E version. I am that fucking noob. Sorry for the confusion.

I'm the fucking noob who doesn't get sarcasm! heh.
