Boards of Canada make some of my favourite music, it’s impossible to place them in a certain genre, their music manages to sound new and fresh and yet familiar in a reminicing of childhood kind of way. Maybe it’s the use of 80′s educational/tv samples, but it has this strange way of making you look back. They took their name from the Film Board of Canada, which they site as a major influence on their work and their lives. Nature is a major theme of their work, at least it seems that way to me. It’s impossible to choose a top track, but this is definitely one of them
On a simillar note, lately I’ve been listening to a lot of Aphex Twin’s incredible Selected Ambient Works, one of the best tracks, for me, is Rhubabrd
