When I was a tyke, I remember watching TVOntario films on my public
television station in Ohio back in 1975. On a side note, you can order these
films from the national film board's website - just do a search on Yahoo for
National Film Board Of Canada. They have stuff going back to the 70s and
earlier - imagine the source material (or tripping material) at your
fingertips!

When i first heard BOC i was sure they were from canada and the sound
conjured up lots of old memories because these segments played a lot (like
in almost every spot) on Radio-Canada when i was younger. I'm surprised to
hear that they ran in Europe too. These detuned synth sounds were wonderful
, i remember them so clearly , BOC is really, really eerie to me.I think
almost everybody here in Quebec makes the connection or at least says
something like : "yeah i think i heard that once"(even very uninformed and
unmusical people) The new ep is really good btw, does anybody know how
limited the vynil edition will be??? i really want one. end.
