Recorded in Turquoise Hexagon Sun Studio, Scotland.
Recording information: Hexagon Sun Studio.
Forget everything you ever thought was dull or ponderous about ambient music, as Boards of Canada return like Aeschylusian heroes -- unbound from a genre that often sounds like a washing machine begging for a swift kick. Pay attention, Radiohead. Boards of Canada traced a disturbed childhood in the arctic, austere Music Has the Right to Children, but here there's a slightly warmer feeling. More central, tweaked vocals add a new dimension to the "hard beats + bittersweet melodies" pattern of the past; songs like the gorgeous, ice-melting "Zoetrope" glide along on simple celestial glimmers without a single bassline in sight. It's as if the band is thawing out in preparation for something. Even when it's hard to tell what that might be. Tiny, exploratory decisions -- no matter. You'll likely want to crawl inside this EP's washing machine for a long, long time. ~ Dean Carlson

New single from Scottish electronica duo. Warp Records release. Highly reccomended for fans of Air, Kruder & Dorfmeister etc.. B.O.C. and Broadcast are probably the only two melodic electronic bands that Warp has signed. Tracks, 'Kid For Today', 'Amo Bishop Roden', 'In A Beautiful Place Out In The Country' & 'Zoetrope'.The Wire (1/01, p.71) - "...The comforting familiarity of [their] muted beats, synth washes and glowing keyboards is potent and valium soaked....summoning waves of introspection that develops into full blown immersive nostalgia..."
CMJ (2/12/01, p.33) - "...A gorgeous offering that uses synthetic instrumentation to evoke real emotion..."

Average Rating: (4.3 out of 5 stars) 4.5 stars

3 stars Quality
Four quality tracks. They may not be breaking any new ground here but who cares because BOC show a consistency that is as good as anyone. If a few more EPs were released that would be great as we wouldn't have to wait so long between LPs.

5 stars The Perfect Bedtime Story
I Love This Album Too Death. It's Sad But Truly Beautiful, And By Far Their Best Album (Better Than "Music.."). It's Part Of My Nightly Routine (Along With Sigur Ros And God Speed..).

5 stars Simply Amazing Minimal Bliss!!!!
This is a darker minimal effort from the Scottish duo Boards Of Canada, and probely one of the most beutiful releases ever. It opens with Kid For Today which is breathtakingly smooth with little jazzy analougish synths filtering here and there..... It has a childish appeal and will draw you into it's simple minimal stucture. Amo Bishop Roden is also really nice with a simple little pop bass that almost has a spy movie feel. The track keeps itself so low-key, yet will remain with you in your subcocious. A Beautiful Place Out In The Country is probely one of the most special BOC moments to me with a haunting synth melody, neat breakbeat, little child laughs, and a wonderfully vocoded voice that calls you to "Come out and live in a religious community in a beautiful place out in the country." This is pure minimal bliss and will have an effect on you. Good or bad is up too you. Zoetrope- Personally, I thought this track was kind of boring, however I still gave the E.P. 5 stars as the other tracks more than make up for what Zoetrope wasn't able to deliver. Trust me on this one, next to Music Has The Right To Children this one is a must own!!!!

VH1 Presents The Corrs Live In Dublin CD  (2002)

In A Beautiful Place Out In The Country
CD $6.39  4.3 stars Top 500 Audio Samples
The Corrs: Jim Corr (vocals, guitar, keyboards); Sharon Corr (vocals, violin); Andrea Corr (vocals, tin whistle); Caroline Corr (vocals, drums, bodhran, percussion).
Recorded at Ardmore Studios in Dublin, Ireland in January 2002.
You knew the Corrs had made it when they played the final JFK Awards ceremony of the Clinton administration. Playing it would have been achievement enough, but their status as a happening thing was cemented at the end of the ceremony, during the encores, when everybody was taking their final bows. Bill moseyed up over to Andrea, put his arm around her, and when she was looking away, sized her up -- at precisely the same moment Chuck Berry was checking her out. If that doesn't mean that you've broken America, entering its pop culture, I don't ...

Highly anticipated new album features 23 tracks. Warp Records. Boards Of Canada: Marcus Eoin, Michael Sandison.
Recording information: Hexagon Sun.
Photographers: Marcus Eoin; Michael Sandison.
Geogaddi, the most anticipated sophomore full-length from an IDM act since Aphex Twin's SAW 2 in 1994, certainly looks and feels similar to the 1998 Boards of Canada debut, Music Has the Right to Children. The package design includes artful, bleached-out photos of children playing, while the lengthy track listing balances short vignettes with longer ...
