wonderfully composed and thought out pieces from one of my favourite bands of all time. I'm already having "Everything you do is a balloon" played at my funeral, albeit for some time yet. The campfire headphase went slightly more acoustic for their last outing which was fine and is nice to experiment with your sounds. However, this instantly feels more like the Classic BOC sounds which are what they do best. I don't know what the people who gave it less stars who claim to be long standing fans are going on about? It's a Boards of canada album so it is going to sound like Boards of canada. They certainly have a distinct sound and this album seems to have heavier percussion on many of the tracks. I also noticed lots of more subtler melodies and rhythms on other songs. Like a fine cheese this matures excellently with age and more listens actually improves the whole experience. You can tell they have deliberately although quite subtly put lots of hidden messages in the album, some of which I may be starting to understand. At the end of the day though these amazing musicians have been and will continue create wonderful, timeless and amazing music. Boards has and will continue to be a wonderful soundtrack to my life and many others. Thank you.

I will be honest and admit to having never strayed near the audio shore of Boards of Canada and bought this album on a whim. Being a big fan of Aphex Twin and, to a lesse degree, Future Sound Of London, I knew I would be in fairly safe waters buying this album.

And, seems I called it. The album immediately put me in mind of the Environments albums released by FSOL, incessant, slow burning beats awash with feedback and static-choked murmurrings. It's like AFX without the concomitant weirdness and freak outs, sometimes I want my chill-outs to induce a state of bliss and relaxation, not sweat soaked nightmares that are AFX's specialty.

I can see why some decry this music as boring or background sounds, it takes repeated and concentrated listens to appreciate this for what it is and, having sat through the complete album on many occasions wrapped up in my headphones and being transported away, the sounds have grown on me and I really, really like it. Some of the tunes remind me of Orbital a la' Wonky, albeit with the RPM's dialled down a little.

A very intriguing sound and the accompanying booklet neatly encapsulates the images they are trying to conjure, weird industrial radio towers, blurred figures as seen through the cold eye of a camera sensor, whitewashed abstract scenes, broken signage, all very atmospheric and a good visual invocation of the sounds.

If you like AFX, FSOL, Orbital the Orb etc then this will be right up your street, if you yearn for catchy hooks and pop fluff look elsewhere. Me? I love it.

"Perhaps the only album in three years (since 2010's Gorillaz Plastic Beach) that I waited and anticipated for to buy at first release and on hard copy. Scottish electronic music duo bring back their experimental and moody flair with Tomorrow's Harvest, a collection of 17 pieces complementing much of their nostalgic, analogue-sounding cues with more high-definition sound and menace.

The album takes much more a Geogaddi direction in its sound design and mood than Campfire Headphase (which is phenomenal in case the haters deny) and Music Has the Right... At first a hard one to try and grasp as the album acted a bit sluggish and compromising at the beginning, the second try at listening to it was a bit more rewarding which is why I did not automatically give it a 5-star review. Issues of immediacy and variety did arise in the beginning as I heard this album. The beginning with the recently known and very sci-fi-like Reach for the Dead did not kick-start with much surprise or intrigue as An Eagle in Your Mind or Chromakey Dreamcoat (the first ever BoC song I ever heard, in truth).

As I got grasp of much of their signature elements and the funky-psychedelic rhythms, then I started developing my already obsessive interest of the album.

First century philosopher (and Roman emperor) Marcus Aurelius had a lot to say about the nature of change. "On death. Either dispersal, if we are atoms: or if we are a unity, extinction or a change of home". (Meditations)

Brian Eno conjures up millennia of change (past, present and future) in a simple, slightly chilling 3 word title: "Before and After Science". Before And After Science

Kurt Vonnegut in Slaughterhouse 5 repeats the phrase "so it goes" anytime anything dies. Not a signal of sorrow or mourning, more an acknowledgement of the inevitable. Although maybe there's often a hint at the absurdity at its timing or circumstances.(Slaughterhouse 5, or The Children's Crusade - A Duty-dance with Death)

There are clues as to what this record's about. The title Palace Posy - while on the surface a pleasant image of a 15th century palace and a bunch of flowers - is also an anagram of apocalypse. Semena Mertvykh is a transliteration of the Russian script Семена мертвых, which translates as Seeds of the Dead. (I didn't work these things out for myself by the way, I was told them. No university for G. O'D and no mistake!)

The record doesn't really present us with detail though, and it's all the better for that.
