Boards of Canada perfectly embody the themes we love to explore: plunderphonics, nostalgia, and hauntology. Despite this, we’ve never examined their work in detail. With their first album release in 13 years, we’re dedicating the month of June to a full retrospective. In this episode, we discuss their first four major releases, analyzing them as both listening experiences and explorations of those key themes. Grab a haunted sample of your favorite childhood memory and join us!
