  • The first time I heard these tracks I was reminded of the music BBC (and ITV) used during their schools broadcasts in the 1980's (and from digging around here on TH-cam I'm not alone in this belief). You know the sort. The cheap and cheery electronic tunes which accompanied both the continuity and the opening titles of many of the schools programmes we watched. So in the spirit of this I've set the titles from some old Schools programmes to Bocuma / Roygbiv.
    Note the following programmes in your jotter - Going To Work, 20th Century History, Making The Most Of The Micro, Experiment, Near And Far, Watch, Picture Box, Everyday Maths, Scene, Science Topics, Zig Zag, Exploring Science and Physics.

    When this song ends, I shed a tear. Not because such a beautiful song has come to an end, but because I'm back on earth.

    Boards of Canada is so influential in art culture and music, comparing this to more newer modern videos, you can see similar aesthetic.

    This song strongly brings us the feeling of infinite nostalgia. It doesn't matter if you miss 2023 or some recent year, or even last month, if you listen, you will remember your old moments of joy. This song makes me cry like a true BoC fan.

  • @akwalek
    @akwalek 7 ปีที่แล้ว +30

    ah, nostalgia. this reminds me of being in a geography lesson watching a documentary on the andes sometime in the late 80's.. an eagle swooping over the misty mountains.. an eagle in your mind.. wish I had some weed right now

    I can confirm that I pulled these clips from old BBC and ITV schools programmes from You Tube. Looking at it now I see how the timing is all off and how some of the clips hang around too long. But hell as a second attempt at this thing I still like it, although I can't rule out a "Special Edition Directors Cut" at some point.
    Thanks for the postive comments

    @SquidSnuggles 9 ปีที่แล้ว +23

    The only modern day today show or whatever else I know of that is aired right now that would play something like Boards would be How it's Made or How it Works. Have you listened to the music that plays in the background? Below Boards of course!
    How neat are we?! Listening to "documentary and television program" music?! The rest of the world can have all their radio junk, turnover gunk that is forgotten about after two years or so. I love this music and don't ever plan on leaving it. Plain and simple.
    Boards of Fucking Canada!

  • @Nickgreek123
    @Nickgreek123 16 ปีที่แล้ว +12

    Fantastic, this is exactly what i thought of when I first heard that track! I think BoC deliberately went for the whole 'schools tv' sound on the first album in order to evoke memories of childhood (at least for kids of the 80's like me!)
    I find it amazing how an album can make you think of musty-smelling classrooms, messing about on swings, drinking dodgy-tasting milk out of little cartons..

    When I heard this album after a few attempts, i realised the transistion between these two songs is fantatstic and that one really only works with the other. So I was hoping someone would put them up on TH-cam together. Luckily you have fufilled my wish, and gone the extra mile with a great video to go with it. Thank You.

    Excellent video!! And you are absolutely right...the stock BBC film footage goes with the song perfectly. I used to watch some films like that when I was in elementary school, and their music kind of evokes that in me too.

  • @openeyefilms

  • @hdqcb99
    @hdqcb99 15 ปีที่แล้ว

    ofcourse the inclusion of bocuma as the intro elevates this piece & provides context which has been captured perfectly with the countdown clock
    it is possible however that some synthesis of the two - cherry-picking the best of the other - would provide the ultimate visual accolade in every way worthy of one of bocs greatest musical mind-trips

  • @hdqcb99
    @hdqcb99 15 ปีที่แล้ว

    there is a similar video of roygbiv that employs advertising footage of mid-1980's vintage that - whilst highly creditable must be deemed the less satisfactory version of this remarkable musical work of such tantalisingly fleeting brevity & inspired perfection as it doesnt achieves quite so successfully the poignant effect of transporting us back through a portal in the minds eye to that younger , brighter & better televisual world of a future that is now behind us

  • @Retrodove101

    Hi, really enjoyed this, took me back to those pointless filmstrips I was subjected to as a child at school! I love the nostalga (sp?) BOC invoke, Bocuma gives me the craziest dejavu for some reason but I can't quite put my finger on the memory...

    The first time I heard this album I got the same impression of old school incidental music from SURVIVAL the old nature series and maybe THE WORLD ABOUT US. With SURVIVAL it was usually some bleak, icy terrain in North America on the trail of wolves and such and the native indian feel to the music really tied it in. All time top ten CD. *****
