Boards of Canada - Skyliner

Absolutely the bestestest track BoC has put out in years, and that's saying a
lot! 100% feelgood track, can't stop smiling when I'm listening to this.
Especially those really boc-style high notes, the tiny little melody, just
makes me SMILE!!! It's like a little kid, smiling and waving at you, how can
you not smile back? Makes me feel like a kid again, too. Amazing! Also love
the rhythm. It's got this lovely, lazy hiphop beat that is at the same time
slow and incredibly complex. Some serious badass drum programming there. And
the basedrum is so goddamn low/deep it would make even the amikset weep.
Took me a few listens to really get into, but I'm absolutely loving it now.

Also on the same EP (Trans Canada Highway) is another great track - Under the
Coke Sign. Very much like Olson from Music Has the Right to Children,
featuring those slightly offkey synth chords that make Boards of Canada have
such a unique sound. Only about 1.5mins long, this little track is still one
of my boc favourites ever. Left Side Drive is the other new long track on the
EP. It's also great, but much darker/brooding than the rest of the material.
