What's your prediction for BOC's next release?

I just got a message from a reliable source (I know, you've been trained not to trust those words) who says that BoC will definitely release new material in 2010. He says that they (and Plaid too) have been delayed for reasons beyond their control.

 

Looking forward to this.

Haha. Twoism is way too "sensitive" and "art faggy" for me. Too uptight.

I can imagine the EKT equivilent section on twoism to be poor quality boc ripoffs

 

here we've got equally poor AFX, Autechre, Squarepusher, and Luke Vibert ripoffs!

twoism's admin is a whiny faggot.

Doesn't Fredd-E manage twoism?

Actually, their compilation series they've put out is pretty good!

Moebius manages Twoism (I think) - Fredd-E runs bocpages.org.

I am a moderator at the twoism messageboard. Aesthetics/GrimOnMbient is the administrator.

do boc albums typically leak?

campfire headphase leaked, i didnt listen to it though as i had the album on pre-order and some nice weed put aside for the listening occasion.

 

i take a leak on them.

i predict that it will be extremely awesome: this coming from someone who didn't like tch much

hehe, indeed, and he's in a special control group over here too.. it's funny people just can't accept the fact that he's their spokesman on the internet. he corresponds (as in sends and receives mail) with a legit @hexagonsun.com mailing address. what more proof does one need?

One of his claims to come true for a start. Load of shit if you ask me. Just read through some of the stuff on that website. There's nothing in there this guy claims to be happening that has actually happened that I can find. As someone else said, unless it comes from WARP or appears on the official BoC site then it's just a load of hot air! The further you go back in this guys repertoire of comments the more it becomes clear;

 

 

"... the entire BOC back-catalogue is included in the recording and publishing schedules with Warp Music/EMI, and therefore is copyright protected by those parties. According to the band, the older compilations being circulated at the moment are quite likely to be re-released in the near future complete with their original artwork. Keep your eyes peeled"

AUGUST 2001

 

"Warp and BOC have been in talks for a long while about putting out a box set of old tracks from these tapes and others, with new packaging and art, to be released sometime after the forthcoming record. The tapes were private comps given out to close friends a few years ago. Now the intention is still to get round to scheduling a release of these tunes and other rare comps. Anyway, now you know, we hope the intervention hasn't caused too much negative feeling, after all the concern that Warp and BOC have is that basically it's going to spoil the impact of a nice release that hopefully will be enjoyed by the fans."

FEBRUARY 2005

 

"I can confirm that there is a new major release by the band coming up. The announcement will appear first on the official website nearer the time."

JULY 2007

 

"mike and marcus have been too busy making a new album to have any time left to make a pretty website for you as well. They're not particularly interested in wasting valuable time on the net, in general."

JANUARY 2008

 

At this point, the box set of early material is looking 99% likely to happen. Asides from that, let me just say once again for the record, there's a new album coming out first, and maybe more. No dates yet, but they are definitely coming."

AUGUST 2008

 

etc, etc, etc .........

Dogboy73,

 

All those comments are legit. And are perfectly in line with the album being delayed. It should have been out long before. Is it that hard to accept something can get delayed outwith the band's own control? (See the Plaid album for reference; same story)

 

MDG uses a legit e-mail address @hexagonsun.com to correspond and used the same address to register himself on our twoism forum. So, unless he is some malicious hacker who got full access to their official domain (for a couple of years at the very least), he is legit. QED

 

Some people...

Edited March 4, 2010 by Fredd-E

My concern at this point would be if WATMM even has the resources to deal with a new release.

Has anyone seen the Oversteps thread recently?

 

new BOC might requite its own dedicated server.

Edited March 4, 2010 by fumi

what is actually causing the delays on plaids and bocs album?

 

has it something to do with mdg saying something about one of the brothers having a child in that closed topic:

 

  mdg said:

That's great, if by 'complete mental breakdown' he means 'child'. Now give up on this thread.

 

or do I just completely misunderstand this post?

do I understand it right?

 

Dr Clitterhaus was taking the piss making something up about one of the brothers having a mental breakdown and mdg say something like "no but a child" here:

How can you misunderstand it anyways. It's definitely about the birth of his child. I reckon children consume a lot of free time, but I won't consider having a child as "reasons outwith the band's control".

I am kind of careful with asking these things as a topic about me asking the name of richards wife / child out of curiosity got people all aggressive in the subforum

 

didn't know that it was common knowledge that he had one

no of course not but I kind of understood it like "because one of them has a child now its kind of delayed" which would be totally understandable reason for me even so they don't have any need to tell some kind of reason in the first place

 

they can take as much time as they need I would never have the right to criticize this as some here did
