Editorial Reviews
The idolized and enigmatic duo are back. After considerable speculation by their rabid fan base (not to mention the media following every step of the way), Boards of Canada have revealed that their new album Tomorrow's Harvest will be released on June 11 via their long time home, Warp Records. Musically, the album is somehow dark yet positive, with atmospheric dissonance and mind-bending melodic creations.

The word is that the two brothers, Mike Sandison and Marcus Eouin, began slowly working on their fourth studio album following the release of The Campfire Headphase. And if it took them almost eight years to produce the follow-up, then it was the eight years worth waiting for. There are many things I can say about the album, but it all boils down to this: Tomorrow’s Harvest is a classic Boards Of Canada album that only Boards Of Canada could make. Recorded at BoC’s own studio, called Hexagon Sun (located in south-west of Edinburgh, Scotland), the duo seemed interested in escaping the urban environment, preferring to work in isolation away from evolving genres and latest growing fads. This is perhaps why the sound of Tomorrow’s Harvest is so timeless, yet imprinted with that one specific point in time when Towism, Hi Scores and Boc Maxima used to dominate my playlists.
“The challenge with this record was crafting the tunes into a specific style and time period we want to reference. [...] In this case there’s a deliberate VHS video-nasty element throughout the record and to get there it wasn’t just a case of processing sounds through old media, which is a given with us anyway, but we even went to the extent of timing changes in the music and the composition of the pieces, in really specific ways to give an impression of something familiar from soundtrack work that was around 30 years ago.” – Mike Sandison [1]
The sound is full of lush, rich and deep ambient textures, stretching and warping through downtempo rhythms, like an old cassette tape left in a hot car over a weekend. There are plenty of vintage analog synth sounds and lo-fi treatments with even more subliminal messages and hypnotic layered patterns which immediately bring back the nostalgia of that dear ‘ol Boards of Canada. The title of the album, by the way, is inspired by Deadly Harvest, a 1977 film on widespread crop failures in North America, but that’s as close as the music comes to being post-apocalyptic. What’s even more explicit is the newly confirmed fact that those who’ve tried to replicate the BoC sound have definitely failed, as this imaginary soundtrack to the dusty documentary on ghostly cities is still the strength within their work. And that’s what the brothers have been working on all these years.
There is a lot more that I could say about this record. But as with many critically acclaimed albums I often wonder if I should even bother. It’s not like I feel a responsibility of proclaiming my new discovery to the world and letting you know that this is an album you must own – I’m sure that you already do. It’s not like I must produce a counted amount of words to keep my day job as a critic – I’m sure I’d never write a word. I guess for me, this coverage is more like a statement of an acknowledgment, that yes, I’ve had incredibly high hopes for Boards of Canada, and yes, it certainly delivered! And after more than a dozen plays, here’s to many more rotations to come!
I mention this because I get a strong hunch that what Boards Of Canada was trying to achieve was a similiar alien landscape as Aphex Twin but instead making it more listenable and accessible by leaning heavily on atmosphere. Some critics have said Tomorrow's Harvest has no soul, well I disagree with that because there is a pervasive sense of "a watcher", of someone so numb and disconnected from the world. This is also the first time I've ever heard any electronic act try to build upon the foundation of Selected Ambient Works, Vol. II and actually succeed.
But it's not just Aphex Twin that Boards Of Canada seems to be quoting. I hear alot of vintage 70s "space rock" and new-agey trappings. Tangerine Dream's classics Rubycon and Phaedra come to mind. There are also creepy synth string sounds that recalls the Twin Peaks soundtrack.
My first impression of Tomorrow's Harvest is very favorable. I could see this record becoming a classic, but because it references electronica music that's already been made, it could also be a bit of "a flash in the pan". Time will tell if Boards Of Canada have planted the right seeds. I get a sense they have.
They did a good job of keeping that kind of creepy sound to their music without overindulging it. Part of me was afraid that every track would be rife with weird crackly recordings of Branch Davidians or something like that, but they limited that kind of effect to a few tracks.
I listened to the whole thing through headphones while reading A Feast for Crows last night, and if you'll embrace the fact that every song isn't explicitly "The Rains of Castamere" and let it provide a nonconventional soundtrack to your reading, it works out pretty well.
If you're a fan of the style of Boards of Canada, you won't be disappointed with this release.

Die Klänge stehen nur für sich selbst, alles ist voller genau ausgedachter Emotionen und Gefühle – Gänsehaut pur. Ich kenne kaum etwas, das so klingt und wirkt wie dieses Album.
Ich habe das Album erst 2021 entdeckt und finde dass es offensichtlich hervorragend gealtert ist.
Bei der Vinyl-Ausgabe sind die Fotos auf der Innenseite des Gatefold und den Innenhüllen ein weiteres Plus - wirklich recht schön gemacht, eine fantastische Abrundung und Inspiration auf den Fantasiereisen, die durch die Musik ausgelöst werden.
Ich bin wirklich froh das Album entdeckt zu haben und kann es jedem empfehlen, der auf diese Art der melancholisch-chilligen, leicht sehnsüchtigen, wie "aus dem Inneren einer postapokalyptischen Maschine" klingende Atmosphäre steht.
Für mich ein Meisterwerk seiner Klasse.
If you're a fan and have yet to purchase the album, dont take my word. Trust that intuitive inner voice and reinvest right now.
Ps. The first copy I purchased came with a seam split on top of its jacket. Unfortunately the replacement had the same issue, but because it was smaller in size, I settled with it and patched it up. That being said, I'd check your copy prior to opening its shrink wrap.
Temas evocadores y a la vez con una pátina que los envuelve en una irreversible tristeza. El tema es la destruccion del planeta, el futuro del mismo. Que estamos haciendo con el planeta? Que estamos dejando a las generaciones venideras? Por el momento ellos dejan este impresionante disco.
