It's amazing how this guys can bring so much mystery and mystique to their tracks, I can't really define it. It's like ancient electronic musique, like if the Egyptians had synths and samplers or something

I've been listening to Boards of Canada for years, and thanks to this kind of mix, I still discover new tracks. BOC is like an iceberg

That particular version of "Hi Scores" seems to be only found here. There are other similar versions, but not with quite the same "depth" to the sound.

When I listen to BOC, I am transported to 1973. I am wearing a striped shirt, and I'm on my bike, riding down the alley behind those factories on Wellington.

27 years this Christmas Eve morning my Mother passed very suddenly in our home, I dread this day and have done for 2 decades and more, I found this mix yesterday and knew after the 4th piece I could get thru tomorrow peacefully. Thankyou and many regards guys, an antidote to negativity.

I don't know why this music makes me feel so emotional. I think there's something to the repetition in their tracks that forces you to be more introspective, hard to explain it

This is like my childhood subconscious memories in music. Hazy, dreamlike, extremely beautiful. It's a similar to the feeling you get when looking at certain images of liminal space, but much more evocative.

I randomly selected 5.9.78 on my YouTube algorithm a few weeks ago and became enlightened. This mix is my first full introduction! 2024 will be great! Peace everyone!!
