Their music is like memories made into sounds...
Physical reality is just a massive library of memories.
thats what they intended to do
frequent emotions
It does sound like memories. They've said that's what they were going for. I wonder if they are happy with it.
As a musician, I can barely explain how good these guys are. Its not just the sounds, the processing of their sounds, the sampling and tape techniques, the dirty drum beats, but the music itself is so unorthodox, yet brilliant. They do things that you never hear anywhere else, but they somehow make it work. They are the total package.

They are the whole tape deck! 8 - )
When DooDoo Poop makes a statement like that, everyone better take note!
Yeah, when I A-B this against Kanye performing "we are the champions" I can kind of tell the difference ; )
Clouds as witnesses
shit song
@@nihil576 your opinion is bad
@@nihil576 sorry then
This song will always remind me of my childhood and places i've never been to

the past inside the present
I am the shipwreck with its scattered and soaked wood littering the ocean like a nest of roaches. The water smothers me patiently, and it waits to feel my body on the ocean floor. I am the captain. I stand on my ship, never leaving its side, for tonight I sleep in a sharks stomach. The tears and rain both hit my face, as I lay on the deck and wait to drown. I am thunder. Hear me roar as I deafen all. I conduct my orchestra as loud as possible and conclude with a violent smash. I am washing the splinters from within my heart and I scream as it pumps. I let my lungs fill with water as the broken bath tub leaks. Let the clouds be Witnesses
$uicideboy$ save my life
But the clouds replied 'the paraffin on the roaches cleaned the nest and the captain cannot sail on flames'. 'Oh no' said clever eye it is possible 'im' when the waters are ants and yet the bath tubs leaks sploshible without 'im' what an evil fiend you are. The orchestra a din of old lightening that tempers ye not in the knotted storm or form o hail o why is my mouth a gag? My lungs fill with fire alas a deadened water to break that bath tub as it must. Fear not your thunderous lungs...
Pearl Jam did it for me when i was a teen, then björk, then massive attack, then alice in chains, then chemical brothers then math rock started doing it: 65 days of static, and so on... and right now boards of canada does it. Music can grant you a level of immersion that few things can, and is a fantastic level of head clarity when you reach it. It is all hidden in the music patterns. Search for it: There IS music that can do this to your head. Your taste grows with you. Cheers
What does it for you now?
What about Aphex Twin?
Happy birthday to the fishwine man
Updates on what's doing it for you?
I feel like I'm having a panic attack right now. When I was a teen I discovered Boards of Canada, and I can remember how incredible this music made me feel. There was such depth and beauty to it. I would listen to hours of this, just thinking about life and the universe. It was great. Now I feel nothing. Such a strange claustrophobic feeling losing the meaning in something that was so beautiful to me. Is this what it's like getting old?
Yes
What an interesting time capsule. Glad you replied to my comment so I could see it. No, that's not getting old. I was just going through a rough patch. 8 years later and I love this music.
@@GrandmasterofWin glad you got your mojo back. Everything is a miracle. Truly.
@@GrandmasterofWin nice work man! So glad it turned out well.
Hey wow, you replied with later updates and more knowledge. Nice work. I guess in your rough patch 8 years ago you were experiencing what's sometimes called "flat affect" meaning your feelings are diminished or don't get expressed. It can happen for lots of reasons and I'm glad you came out the other end. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reduced_affect_display
I see my childhood past when this music plays. It insists on bringing memories to my forefront that match that particular musical portion.
Thanks BoC for all these masterpieces.
It's strange. I had this phase where I started listening to a lot of ambient and electronic music like Ben Frost, Sabi, Svarte Garner, Deaf Center etc... and someone suggested Boards of Canada, but when I listened to them I wasn't into it. But now I'm in South America and I went to Bariloche, Argentina and I heard them playing in a small Italian restaurant and instantly I understood what their about. Amazing.
Spot on man. It sounds very sentimental and everything, but their music really plunges you into another dimension. I have regularly listened to an entire album with my earbuds in before sleeping. It's a shame most of the tracks last for only 2 or 3 minutes, but on the other hand I think it's beautiful how they managed to suck you in to every single track within that limited amount of time. Boards of Canada truly is an amazing duo.
really great track! i love this melody and these strange sounds! great footage too
I've listened to a lot of BoC and I still think Geogaddi is one of their best works.
yes it is and music has the right from 1998 and the campfire headfaze from 2005
My go-to sleep album
I'm quite convinced these brothers are not from Scotland at all!! They traveled far from a region of space, some fantastical realm, to visit earth and give a guy like Mike some hope in the goodness of people. We are the " Global Human being " I am a better person some how by listening to theses beautiful, heartfelt, soundscapes. There is a hidden message there. Can you sense it?? Can you feel?? Were a Dream living in a Dream. Stone Cold Genius at work here. Are you watching closely??
Love this band.
art work
The more I listen to this, the more I am convinced that it is a masterpiece.
Holy fuck I wasn't ready for that. My brain just thought of so many things I was not ready for. So many memories of the past, what have I become. What am I becoming? To think, some day I will be nothing.
One of the greatest fan-made videos! It's so perfect. I cannot fathom life without BoC.
it’s too good makes you wonder about coincidences
This is literally the one song that I can listen to every day- in any mood- and never be unhappy. Thank you, BoC.
This is so refreshing, just what I needed right now..
this music sedates me but at the same time makes me very aware of all that is happening around me, in the world..
thanks for sharing!
B.
As the voice in the music says "The past inside the present". So don't worry, you'll have those feelings again. : )
everytime i listen to this song it rilly makes me miss my childhood and it rilly makes me look back and think of my childhood and it gives me flash back of my kindergarden this is the most powerfull song that boards of canada have created this song is so beautiful and amazing and it is a very great song i love this song it is my favorite song from boards of canada and (music is math) is the great song ive ever herd in all of boards of canadas songs.
this morning i started a research rabbit hole looking into how to circuit bend &or tape-loop VHS/miniDV tapes, which unlocked a core memory of this song. I hadn't heard it in ~13yrs. what an amazing song by such an ethereal band.
This song proves there is still good music out there.
LOOK AT THESE MEN THEY ARE THE FACES OF HEROS
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Excellent music
This will go on forever.
its a boc kinda morning
***** Every morning is a BoC kinda morning.
i could see Creed enjoying this
This is wild. I don't see how anyone could dislike this. Thanks for the upload.
"The past inside the present" - There are so many interpretations that can be taken from that.
Determination, Nostalgia, Peace, and the need to dance! It’s crazy what a song can do.
i love this. i've been a boards of canada fan since i was a kid when i heard their music on salad fingers
but.. just for the record.. those underwater scenes.. is that BOOBIES on RUclips?!
dlink you are 8 years older now, have you same opinion about BOoBs in YT anymore ? B)
Bill Y this was made 10 years ago
the final part is so unnerving, it gives me goosebumps
Never heard before, don't know how it's possible to live without. Majestic.
Starin' at the water, lookin' like a bunch of satin.
Look into my eyes and all you see is mothafuckin static.
Toe-taggin' bitch I'm baggin' up the dope,
No rattin' to the Po' actin' like you shy,
Read the Latin quote across my fuckin' throat.
Please don't 😂😂😂😂
@TerminalFrost Marcus: "The hexagon theme represents that whole idea of being able to see reality for what it is, the raw maths or patterns that make everything. We've always been interested in science and maths. Sometimes music or art or drugs can pull back the curtain for you and reveal the Wizard of Oz, so to speak, busy pushing the levers and pressing buttons. That's what maths is, the wizard. It sounds like nonsense but I'm sure a lot of people know what I'm talking about."
so good................................
Each time is more deep ....I get lost .....but find my way. Congratulations on EPIC sounds
Looking into and researching different types of music, the realm of strange EDM is the best, stuff like vaporwave, IDM and so on is so, artist focused rather than for mass enjoyment and its all so interesting
this is the best ive came across im so stoked!
sounds and looks like they are communicating telepathically at the end. the video and music mimic the behaviors of visuals during the video.
I remember hearing this song sophomore year and being so scared. I've never heard anything like it at the time.
sweet dreamy music, devastatingly great video.
love from Rotterdamn
beautiful, just beautiful. one of the best
A great Boards of Canada track with a very well thought out and articulately produced video.Thanks for sharing!!
Another quality vid noname! Love these.....
Fantastic!
it has a mixture of eerie and magical feeling.Thank you for sharing us this amazing gift:)
Awesome video, I love the space command footage at the beginning.
Maybe while you were getting old you just forgot some things that were important to you. You can remember them again, don't worry. Opening your mind to those things again is all it takes. Listening to this music or restarting some of your hobbies, re-reading your favorite books, re-watching your favorite series.
Don't consider the past few years wasted though. They made you who you are. They gave you the luxury or re-listening to the BOC, bought a computer etc. I'd love to hear how you are doing
nonameno5- You do a great job of picking your videos. The old sci-fi movies and other ones really capture the sound and compliment it well. Keep up the good work.
Got a pocket full of stones, watching game of thrones..
i was just boutta comment this bruh
Lol
amazing job on the footage, fits perfectly
Their music reminds me of the RPG game Earthbound for SNES. Sweet memories!
That music makes me so sad. dunno why
It makes me nostalgic, but actually happy... weird feeling for shure!
You know, every time this show would come on Adult Swim, I'd always think to myself that Boards of Canada's music would be perfect for this show.
This is the best video I've ever seen in my life. This is the story of modern man.
Music aside, just watching these videos is great. I'm lovin' all the old clips C:
@Batabusa Math is a language that can be used to DESCRIBE music, music is sounds put together. The only connection between the two is one is used to quantify things and one is a thing to be quantified.
Only the best kind of evil genius could have put all of this together. Brilliant! ;-O
@barbossa999 There is a huge difference between recreational use of substances like cannabis and mushrooms, and being hooked on whatever substance because of no or little selfdiscipline.
And music like Boards of Canada makes, is simply very very suitable for "tripping", so you're bound to find some comments about drugs.
what a lovely tune
their music is incredible...
could anything be more dramatic than what we do and how we have evolved. music is great. thank you music.
Excellent. Geogaddi is probably my favourite album by them. Difficult to choose though.
Listening to this song while practicing math greatly enhances understanding.
Try to go outside at night, alone, watch the stars and think about the last 23 minutes of 2001 a space odyssey while listening to this
The past inside the present! Amazing
Awesome ❤
Listening to this with headphones on... and holy crap that is some tune!
I wanted to click on your time link, JonnoXD, but that meant I broke the flow of this awesome song. Gotta have to wait till the boobs :))
The voices samples are amazing
Where has this been all my life?
their lo-fi sound is so accurate and lo-fi that turning the quality up from 240p barely makes any difference at all. gotta love BoC!
Told her dial up 666. If she need to get ahold of me and hopefully shell give me a call when she is home and free and lonely.
Phone rang twice but I missed both calls I was hanging in the hall toll free
No $B comments here
and aliens hear these awesome tunes 5 million years later :D
Is it fans that put video to BOC tracks on YT, or is it the band themselves?
fans , there is only one official videoed track apparently
amojak
Ah, I see. Thanks, Amojak.

It's BOCs drum programming that catches me the most... it's unique and different in all of their tracks; nothing over the top, and it just works. Their use of melody with age-old sounding pads fit so well in the background too.
I've made a similar style song titled "External Thought" on my channel.. I'm not one to ask of this, but feel many who like this may enjoy some of my music. Your support means more than you would think. Cheers
Acid
+Quetzal Sanchez man I dropped some acid and put on some of those big ass headphones from the 70s and listened to this album and it was so amazing, like I could feel the sound
+adj789 that sirening beat definately feel heavier stoned.
yea
sublime.
You thought you could find the answers, but the questions lead to more questions - and then more and more until...
what are we even looking at now?
what is going on
what
I always try to understand their way of making music. Sometimes is more music than math, some other tracks are more math than music. They were brilliant
this is a amazing song...really....
nice to meet you boards of canada
so fine...
this deserves way more views
We are not meant to fully understand time and space, we are on a different time and size scale than the universe. The tip of a pencil looks solid but as you zoom in you find out that it's really just a lot of empty space. (much like our universe) Size defeats us and will always defeat us. There could be another earth on the other side of the milky way and we would have no idea it existed because the light would take one-hundred thousand years to reach us.
@eduardo13rocha of course they did, music really is math.
Amazing!!!
@hezarrc Psychedelics are not related to weed whatsoever so yes i am STILL sensitive and have not conformed to a life that is comfortable to me and me only. You can still be open to life without having to be in the psychedelic world.
@Nosillla I'm sorry Nosillla they cannot handle such uniqueness and well awesomeness.
Like an auditory engagement of DMT naturally occurring in all humans according to hundreds of studies since the 70s till now. Empirical science and theoretical law still have yet to gain agreement on the matter.
@TrekkGT
why not, it made me think of the 50's and space exploration and this video :)
I missed this kind of music
what a fucking special music. Reminds me of something that I didn't live. Touches my nostalgic nerve.
a nice jay is what I need to listen to this
The past is in the present... That sentence alone trips me out
