Are there any other artists with the same Warm/Nostalgic/Apocalyptic feeling like BoC

If apocalyptic is what you want, then Current 93 is the artist for you. It's the best music about the apocalypse that I've heard. Thunder Perfect Mind gives me some vibes similar to Boards of Canada in a few parts, even though it's an entirely different genre.

 

This track is a notable example, with its soaring leads and the filters on the instruments and vocals

This is bloody amazing, as is Ghost.  Check this out synth loving watmmers if you haven't aready

In my quieter moments I sometimes think I prefer Freescha.

"They're about guns, lasers, robots with laser guns in space. Monsters from the future. Explosions. Sylvester Stallone doing a backflip on top of a spike while Robocop carries a ghost up a mountain. Bombs and swords and that... IDM is awesome."

I really like HOME:

The whole album "Odyssey" is great: https://midwestcollective.bandcamp.com/album/odyssey

 

His more recent stuff has moved away from that sound, but still incredibly chill music nonetheless.

Oort Cloud sounds great , sounds like post-chillwave

Sounds like a Com Truise and Tycho collab...I like it

Hidden Rivers is really good in my opinion.  They're on this really cool UK based ambient label called Serein.  You can find 'em here.

I can never get enough of BoC's quality and original sound, but are there any other artists that are similar? I've been trying to find some and failed to discover what I was looking for.

 

Shameless self-promotion, but you might enjoy this:

Does this work?

Came here to mention you! 

 

Seriously folks, check Lovekrafty out. He's the real deal. 

 

I have made a few BoC-inspired tracks as well.

1991 more than anyone else for lately , personally anyway, there's something melancholy and nostaligic about his stuff that harkens BoC a lot more than other artists compared to the group

 

 

some other tracks that remind me of BoC in vibe

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

this one is more of a stretch but his music has a very western desolation vibe, similar to parts of Tomorrow's Harvest thematically

 

Odd Nosdam album Sisters. Obvious choice cause BOC remixed one of the songs (just as he has remixed one of theirs), but even beyond that, the rest of the album seems to not break character
