Alright. Back from my lil break. I'm gonna be reviewing the albums I rated soon. But for now, here's Boards of Canada.

I've heard cool things about this band, so I was eager to get my hands (and ears) on them. While this EP doesn't blow anything out of the water, "Twoism" is still a solid set of IDM tunes with some interesting textures.

Almost sounds like downtempo's response to beat tapes.

Twoism is, to me, a signal of what to come and expect of BoC (sometimes literally), but on it's own I rarely feel the want to listen to this over any of their other records. Exception being Sixtyniner, which remains one of my alltime favorite songs by them and stands as a remarkable example of their musical wit even during their early days.

this is like one of my favourite album covers, such a shame that the vinyl is not this cover </3

This is actually very well put together for an EP. Just shows how talented these two guys really are.
