It should be possible to setup a release that has to be "activated". Not a static date but the concsequence of an outsiders' action.
whooosh

Excited to get back on topic here -
It would be neat if it worked like that but it seems like we are currently being nudged toward June 15th in a couple different places (the Macquarie Ridge CET timestamp/the playlist positions of recent tweets - 15-6-1-7, as a refresher for people)

So far this year we have:

28/3 tweet = 84

3/4 playlist entry 146 = 7 for date and 14x6 for entry

Assuming 15/6 = 21, I would guess July 6th is on deck for 42.

Beyond that, I see another 21 in August, and to close the cycle on 9/9 as an inverse of how it started on 6/6 last year. Announcement then, or soon after...

I made full amends, withholding any negative feelings or opinions I had left regarding our difference of opinion. You turn it into a way to fire another accusation in my direction and to tell me that I am a supporter of two people I do not support.

Empathising with someones position doesn't mean that you support them. I empathise with people who's actions I despise sometimes. If the media spreads false information about even the worst human beings, I will still respect their rights and I will still make a point of calling out the fact that I feel that false information is being spread about said people.

If you can't accept an apology and not turn it into a concealed weapon to further agitate the situation...





Then New York's tainted water supply must really have gotten to you.

You told me you were a Putin sympathizer and you seem to be defending Trump so I'm not sure what anyone's takeaway from that is supposed to be.

I appreciate your apology, and as I said, I am not trying to make,anything personal. Sorry if you feel offended by my worldview. It should not be treated as a personal attack.

Opothocary. It is fully within your power to end this the nice way.

I had already made the first step in doing so by letting go of any negative perceptions I had of you as a result of our difference of opinion. That was your cue to shake my hand and for the credits to roll.

I obsessively can't leave a situation until it has been resolved without someone slipping in a final accusation.

I am not offended by your woldview in the slightest.

Please withdraw your negativity towards me as I did with you.

I want this thread to get back to its former self just as much as I imagine you do.

Ok, both - can we both go take a walk and calm down please? There is no need for this whatsoever. I suspect this is classic case of internet taking all the humanity out of what would otherwise be a heated but friendly discussion down the pub. Lord knows I've been guilty of this many many times in the past and I can promise you things can look very silly in the morning. You're both valuable contributors to this community, intelligent and honest. Let's be respectful, patient and kind to one another. Please.

Go at it hammer and tongs on my Snap GE 2017 thread guys, but not at each other but at the bastards that have fucked us all over.

June 15th is what I stated all along.

This thread needs a good RSD related hoax to happen in order to get it back on track, let's believe in 22/4

Keep politics out of this thread. This is about BoC's speculated new release, not yet another online idealogical battle. Chiillll. Twitter has plenty of storage for this.

Also, the soundcloud is updated with tons of previews? Can anyone confirm that it was completely empty mere weeks ago?

A TBA at matador records? http://www.matadorrecords.com/boards_of_canada

According to the wayback machine this wasn't there last year.


I don't know why this post hasn't been getting people's attention.
This is potentially a clear signal as to an upcoming release.

Just to get rid of any other possibilities, does anyone know of any Warp/Matador release by BoC that was on or around the same date specified, 30th of November?

The fact that the year is '-1' is a potentially interesting indicator too. A countdown (or up)?

Well, the release date for MHTRTC on that site is Sep 22 '98, when it was actually released five months earlier on April 20. So maybe we're getting something at the end of June?

Also, that Soundcloud stuff is nuts. I think it's more likely than not they're up to something now.
Welcome, my friend. These are my people; now they are your people too.

Before Warp self distributed in the States, other labels like Nothing and Matador handled the US releases. MHTRTC was released here a few months after the initial Warp release so this is probably what that's about (it's how I first got to hear it) but the other entry is definitely weird.

Soundcloud was definitely a recent thing, I know it didn't look like this a few months ago, last I checked.
