"IMPORTANT INFORMATION: With each Copy of this E.P. you will recieve NTSC Region 0 DVD of the beautiful promo video for the track Track Dayvan Cowboy, Directed by Melissa Olson. Plus on top of this Warpmart customers will recieve a rather nice exclusive sticker too.

 

Extending from the last years Campfire Headphase album, the Trans Canada Highway EP which features 5 new tracks including a great remix from Cloudead's Odd Nosdam plays out a hallucinogenic road trip of desolation, isolation and exploration.

 

With the Boards of Canada traits of intricacy and ethereality, Trans Canada Highway visits a darker place, “a glacial place” as Boards of Canada put it,away from the warmth and light of The Campfire Headphase."

 

Olson, huh? Name sounds familiar...

source?

also 'skyliner' is fucking incredible ... that thick sub-bass, it sounds more like something from geogaddi. ace

source = warpmart.

ah gotcha, i didn't look on the warpmart page itself

whoa also i just noticed, the vinyl will be white, that's interesting

as usual. i'm a little slow on these things.

at first, i'll admit, i wasnt excited at all for Trans-Canada Highway...but after listening to the Skyliner stream, i'm nearly shitting myself out of sheer excitement.

dont have meself a credit card...since i'm underage and all, but will be looking for it at all the underground record stores on 6/6/06 :heart:

nice track i wonder what the new sticker will be like...

ah yes, i did a 4 day trip into glacier in 2004. fucking holy.

yessssss! v fucking good. this is more like it, geogaddi style.

In case anyone missed this on the bleep page:

Boards of Canada - Skyliner (Bleep preview rip)

 

Sorry to say I had to use yousendit, since I was having server problems. Let me know when this link dies, and I'll load another.

 

Peace!

thanks Tree!

Finally managed to access the server. Permanent link here:

Skyliner

if you were a girl, and i was a girl, and you were bisexual and i was a lesbian, i'd totally make out with you right now

Thanks a bunch :kiss:

Heh, the "permanent link" is down, but the yousendit's still up for the time being. Thanks, Tree, much appreciated.

Hm, can't edit my last post for some reason.

My first reaction to the track was meh. But I think it works the way much of TCH works, more subliminally. I find the track most similar to McQuarie Ridge.

OK fuck it, after looping this track for the past half hour, I've decided it's about as vanilla and predictable as you can get. C'mon Boards, it's pretty and all, but...It's no Kid For Today, Amo Bishop Roden, or IABPOITC. Sort of on the same level as Zoetrope.

In other words B-sides material.

I hope it's like Oscar See Through Red Eye, the first single released for TCH but IMO one of the weaker tracks on the album.
