Boards Of Canada - In A Beautiful Place Out In The Country

The Scottish brotherly duo make music with electronic beats but with a lot of found sounds and they sample their own instruments. They started doing music together since their childhood but started BOC in the 80`s. Their music has matured in many levels but the harmonic aspect has made an incredible leap towards new grounds that have been unexplored by many. The musical structure is simple since the music normally stays in one section trough out the whole tune, but so many melody patterns and combinations of different melodic instruments makes the whole tune different from start to finish. The beats also vary since both of them have different rhythmic influences. I cant think of anything else to say about these musicians, but i know they would prefer it that way. This is one of their EPs of their lengthy discography and possibly one of their most beautiful works.
