[jalachelas]

[rockerklaq93]

BoC rulez :)

[NewAgeDirector]

Great video keep up the good work.

[creativecore77]

Wow this video is ace. I could watch it forever. On a totally different note, reading the top comments. I live in Edinburgh! :D

[IAmMonsterDog]

They use to play this on Adult Swim. I don't know if they still do though.

[k2skisrider]

who came here because of 4bi9 - slamina ?

[mrTryggvi]

You've just been gently mentally fucked...

[jalachelas]

IM HIGHT . ITS AWSOME TO LISTEN THIS SONG WHEN U R JUST IN THE TOP OF THE WORLD....xD

[aaaaaatom]

How can almost a fifth of the raters dislike this song?!?!

[mixman033]

great song to listen stoned

[arnaud360]

@mixman033 i confirm.

[No1Significant1]

Burn it to the ground....

[spwhoa]

nice video...this is one of my favorite songs

[AlphaAGENT144]

OH GOD I CAN SEE FOREVER

[geegee1848]

this is a true ramshackle fuck job of a video. thank you for the migraine and for massacring any possible attempt at a proper interpretation of this song. i award you no points, and may god have mercy on your soul.

[Chowchow6000]

@geegee1848 I live in your asshole. Apparently you know the writers of the song, and thats how you know the "proper" interpretation of the song. Once again, I must urge you to remember that I live in your asshole. It's a key part of the argument.

[geegee1848]

@Chowchow6000 I gotta say I don't really remember writing that comment. I think it's pretty funny though, and your response is also a good laugh. No offense meant - cool vid. Cheers mate!

[dictatorpepper]

the very concept of this kind of music has such potential to be boring, and i remain intrigued

[Gemendelos]

a really good song by a really good band,this is one if not my absolute favorite track with Boards of Canada,it gives me lots of memories. If you want to listen to more good electronic music you can check my page and have a listen,if you feel like it,have a great day : )

[3Jammy]

Friend recommended this to me. Instantly love it. I'd love to make some kind of music like this myself. I would usually try and do something more heavy tho. KInda along the lines of Tool. Quite ambiant or someting. Must get into more of this.

[xoio]

This is the whole ethos of BOC, how they create a nostalgic feeling using sound.. Kids who grew up in the 70's & 80's will identify with BOC the most.

Is it me, or are BOC LONG overdue a new album?

[Johmeyful]

BoC !!!!!!!!!!

[spetsnaz5]

I listened to this song while driving through the sandhills of nebraska, which has one of the lowest population densities of anywhere in the US. Cruising at 90 to 100 mph with nothing in sight but road, sky and hills, this song playing in the backround, it was heaven.

[Bustanez]

@spetsnaz5 do it often, it´s relaxing, i suggest lay of the land by plej

[spetsnaz5]

@Bustanez That would be a good song to drive to.

[Iandakidd]

This is that song on the Cartoon Network bump.

[davidevgen]

wasn't this song used on one of cartoon networks bumpers?

[TheWordsOfGandhi]

good! how did u do the thing with the blosums

[MountErrigal]

love that bit at the end too!!

[MountErrigal]

Refreshing, crisp, clean beats, dreamy delayed out chorus. Its a fantastic song to walk with through a busy city or a country stroll.

Love these guys

[IASIPPepperjack]

I was looking for this song like crazy after I heard it on a cartoon network commercial. And no wonder I liked it... its BoC.

[JBC16]

haha was trying to figure out what the name of this song was for like a week..heard it on Adult Swim first i think then heard it on CN..CN is starting to steal the idea of BUMPS from AS cuz i also heard them play stuff from Flying Lotus lol

[posholvglush]

what cartoon it was? :)

[Mr1991kid]

This music sounds very 1980s

[citizenflek]

these guys hurt my brain different ways every track..epic

[hlektronio]

nice work

[cheeseboy777]

I don't know how they do it but BOC always give me crazy nostalgia rushes.

[concretebeats]

That vocal that comes in at 2.55 is so beautifully...spot on

[VideoKiwi2008]

the guitar works well

[Yorkoholic]

Nicet audiovisual work.

[02golfgti]

driving music

[iamqqqqqqq]

The idea of a Chroma Key Dreamcoat, where you wear the single color coat, and then insert psychedelic visuals over top of the coat (a la green-screening) is so awesome

[shaddar666]

i love this sound

:)))))))

[Gaellus]

oh god i can see forever

[radiofan6872]

I love this song so much! Thank you for posting it.

[0Nathre0]

It reminds me to Four Tet

[notperfect77]

this song is meant for "playing basketball"

[steosmancha]

dope

[lookwhatidid]

pretty cool

[TeddyHall]

this is amazing.

[yuefandy]

BEAUTIFUL!!*

[rockdeadrockstars]

I just read an interview by these two guys very smart LADS, haha there scottish...

[MrGreekstatue]

Very nice video, i stay in Scotland just outside Edinburgh in a place called Livingston. Is this made with some of your own footage? I wouldnt mind having a go at making a video for some BoC.

[fredjhenzel]

I made this video while living in Brooklyn, NY. The cherry blossom trees are from the Pratt Institute campus, the sunset scene is from Brooklyn's beautiful Prospect Park.

If you live in Scotland, then what ever footage you get will be more authentic to what inspired the Eoin brothers to make their soundscape music. I say you go ahead and do it.

[flexdex4ever]

superb video for this gem by the scottish brothers

[Omegashadowyoshi]

I live in chicago!

[fredjhenzel]

It is a fine fine place to live

[Omegashadowyoshi]

I actually live in Evanston. I visit chicago often though.

[fredjhenzel]

I was born there

[pawpawnorth]

@Omegashadowyoshi ditto man

[mixman033]

@fredjhenzel and it is a fine place to skate ;D

[laxerrr69]

[BoCGoD]

COTTEN CANDY TREES WHAT THE FUCK, dude,,, u kick ass, make more PLZ

-Boards of Canada GoD

[fredjhenzel]

Actually, they were cherry trees.

[Bakergirl757]

there cherry blossom trees

Lol X )

[fredjhenzel]

What's that mean? They were named so because the blossoms themselves look like cherries?

[Bakergirl757]

Lol,I really dont know

mabey cause of their color?

idk but i would sure would like to see one,

there just so pretty :))

[StanMarsh02]

Adoro el ruido de este video!!. Y no estoy utilizando la palabra ruido de manera peyorativa.

[fredjhenzel]

that's fake espanol

[wildinthestreets86]

lol, that's fake english btw... idiota.. si no entiendes un culo no comentes... for your translation... if you don't understand jack shit.. don't bother commenting...

[HDSputnik]

LoL

Isdatsum dirty dv tape head effect?

:30

[dakarus]

Heard it on adult swim

[Wincow]

I could have SWORN I heard this somewhere. Thanks

[ErnstigeErnst]

me too, could be a song from underworld that's similar

[HarryKeari]

I hate how people think that they can film a random shot add some effects to it and repeat it over and over, then deem it worthy to be shared with the world!!!!

[chemicalvalleysessio]

well i enjoyed it. i hate hollywood movies. but i like these kinds of films. anything is worthy to share with people.

[HarryKeari]

Your a fool.

[ErnstigeErnst]

i agree with you, but it's the same story with the song, but that doesn't bother me, perhaps the eyes are bored more easily then the ears...

[socalkid1050]

trippy

[Andr00N]

This is my favorite song

[WhatTheShittles]

what is being said at the end of the song

[fredjhenzel]

That is an interview with a member of the Branch Davidian cult who survived the seige thing. In my video I actually found the video of the interview and matched it up with the audio that BoC used.

[WhatTheShittles]

cool, i'll check it out. thanks!

[Andr00N]

Where can I find this interview?

[fredjhenzel]

Dunno, it was on Youtube

[lunajerusha]

Let's give it a solid listen and live and let live. Manners and thumbs separate us from the animals.

[posholvglush]

oh cmon, jsut enjoy this music if u like it and if u don't like it u can listen to the other music which gives u joy... just joy, love and peace :)))

[PObserver]

Traditionally, a song is composed in part by spoken verse. Songs contain themes, metaphors, allusions, parables and allegories. Tracks, on the other hand, are without spoke verse. Tracks are composed entirely of instruments or electronic equipment which produce sounds as an instrument word. As you would call a classical work of music a piece, electronic works are known as tracks. This is not a song.

[stgm]

It's still a song, it's just untraditionally made.

[PObserver]

Please locate a dictionary, find the word "song", and tell me what it says.

[stgm]

I'm not looking in shit. If you have to read a dictionary to define a song, music isn't your thing.

So what you're saying is instrumental music aren't songs?

[PObserver]

"So what you're saying is instrumental music aren't songs?"

I'll keep this an issue of semantics and not syntax, so in answering your "question", which I assume is asking if there are "songs" in instrumental music, then the answer is no. The terms are either "piece", as with a classical composition, or track, a general term. No one ever congratulates a classical composer for having written a "song." I guarantee composers would wince at that categorization.

[stgm]

See, music really shouldn't be your thing. You seem like you'd be a blast.

[TomahawxX]

You cant describe music or define it. Its transcendent like every kind of art. Humanity tries to express through music, but we can't rebuild the main idea, like we do for example in maths

[Itriphus]

It actually shouldn't be called a song because nothing is "sung," in the sense that no musical sounds are produced by the voice in this piece. However when you get right down to it, if the music is any good then nobody gives a shit.

And they shouldn't have to give a shit whether it's the correct terminology or not.

So, PObserver is right in saying it isn't a song, but wrong in saying that if we call it a song, we are doomed to music hell for eternity (or so it would seem).

[Kaeles]

Right, technically it should be called a "piece".

[fredjhenzel]

Check out my other videos!

[zwerty007]

@Itriphus agreed

[ramoseven]

@stgm funny thing is instrumental music is most of the time better then non instrumental music boc is just some really sick music most people who dont like it have no open mind i think they only listen to lady gaga schit music these days isnt as good as it was in the past most not al but most , they just need to let this get on the radio and tv

[Aerotides]

@stgm That is something that I learned studying music but I don't know i feel like the term has evolved for modern times. A music professor would tell you a song is music + lyrics. And this is an instrumental. I just say song, I'm not that big of an elitist.

[diengk]

fuck you man...you don't understand nothing!!!....

[PObserver]

yah, u do not understand anythings.

[pen0rass69]

Pobserver doesn't not know what hes not talking about, on an opposite day.

[vaona7]

You're stupid. Is that how you view the rest of life? Sorry, you're not stupid, but you're probably a boring person. And composers must be pretentious and egotistical, to view an art-form, as such. Fuck you. =]

[CanadianMailbox]

ooh this is that song they use on adult swim! [one of the few i didn't know the name of before, because all the music they use is totally my type, its awesome] i love it, boc one of my fav bands, i didn't know it was their song! i thought i'd never find it
