misery, Aug 02, 2002

Boards of Canada take me as close to that very nostalgic period in my childhood in the very early eighties. I was raised on NFB films, so to hear things that I can vaguely recognise (for example the "I love you" in The Color of Fire is actually from a Sesame Street vignette) makes listening to them the most satisfying thing in the world. Now Im trying to track down a whole lot more stuff like this. Fortunately I live in Toronto and the reference library has a wealth of NFB films. So far I can only track down a few cuts. Fausts On the way to abamae, and - surprisingly - Weens Ice Castles. I picked up Enos album Music for Films, which I add is great recomendation for a BoC fan (thanks StanSatin).
Anyone have and ideas?
