UPDATE : I was hoaxed. The track lengths were right on, but I was the victim of wishful thinking. On another listen, the tracks of this album are faded out in order to conform to the time length signatures for Hooper Bay<\/a> songs (still very much obscure). I’ll keep the text below in this archive of blog posts as a record of my credulity!<\/p>\n

I’ll reveal a secret to all y’alls. The best place to get your filez on is on USENET . That’s where I just collected Hooper Bay<\/em>, Boards Of Canada’s ultrarare 1994 mini-cassette\/12″ extremely limited release. I’ve been burned before with non-BOC tracks tagged as BOC before (badly tagged, and mis-tagged Old Tunes mp3s are ubiquitous on soulseek), so I checked on over at Frederik Claes’ BOC fan site<\/a> for the authoritative track listing and song length duration. Sure enough, it is really Hooper Bay<\/em>. This sort of file sharing is exactly what USENET and the file sharing networks are good for. Grabbing files of out-of-print and intolerably rare limited pressings. I have no idea why Warp hasn’t re-released this material to the BOC craving (and crazed) masses. Until then, I will have to make do with my low-fi 128kpbs encoded, usenet downloaded, mp3s of Hooper Bay<\/em>. This short album really is lovely.<\/del><\/p>\n
