Boards of Canada have confirmed that they are working on a new studio album.
Boards Of Canada are secretive, cult-ish… reclusive. So it comes as a surprise to find that the band have a Facebook page, and an even bigger shock to discover that they actually use it.
With speculation about a new album mounting, one fan took it upon themselves to ask the Scottish duo directly: “Rumours of a new BOC album are rife ? , any truth in this ?”
To the shock of the poster – and just about everybody who has ever been touched by the duo’s music – Boards of Canada gave a one word reply: “yes”.
Warp ain’t saying nuffink, with Boards Of Canada seemingly out on a limb with this one. The pair do seem to have been stirring of late, with their Twitter feed recently directing fans towards a YouTube channel.
If true, the album would represent the band’s first batch of new material since the release of 2006 EP ‘Trans Canada Highway’.
Naturally, there’s no word of a potential release date or even if the material will gain an official release.
Here’s ‘Dayvan Cowboy’.
