boards

Boards of Canada are a Scottish electronic music duo consisting of brothers Michael Sandison and Marcus Eoin. Signing to Skam and then Warp Records in the 1990s, the duo received recognition following the release of their debut album Music Has the Right to Children in 1998. They followed with the albums Geogaddi (2002), The Campfire Headphase (2005) and Tomorrow's Harvest (2013), but have remained reclusive, rarely appearing live.The duo's music incorporates vintage synthesiser tones, samples from outdated media, hip hop-inspired beats, and analogue production methods; it has been described as exploring themes related to nostalgia, as well as childhood memory, nature, and more arcane subjects. In 2012, Fact called them "one of the best-known and best-loved electronic acts of the last two decades."
