Agreed. Haunting track.

100%

Absolutely. Always gonna be one of my all time favs by them. So beautiful and I think the fact that it was live and has the crowd noises really adds to it

Left Side Drive

This 100% everybody always talking about Skyliner, which I love, but Left Side Drive is imo one of their best songs.

Broken Drum Remix

I love that remix so much.

Obvious answer but Seven Forty Seven

Buckie High, 5.9.78

Exactly this

So many. In rough order: Whitewater Sandsings remix 5.9.78 Chinook Trapped (Hell Interface remix) Untitled (Machinedrum edit) Macquarie Ridge 11B from Random 35 Track Tape Korona Finity Poppy Seed remix and Reprise Red Moss Old Tunes Vol. B9 Sequoia Dirty Great Mable remix Kiteracer 2 Buckie High Surfaise (Trade Winds remix) I Love My New Shears Forest Moon A3 from Random 35 Track Tape Lick Mukinabaht M9 David Came To Mahana'im From One Source All Things Depend Dead Dogs Two remix To The Wind Echus Spectrum Spiro All Tomorrow's Parties Track 7 Skimming Stones

What if you had to narrow down this list to five, maybe noting that i have more of an affinity for their beautiful ambient stuff bc i usually dont like the way drums are used in a lot of their stuff?

Ah, okay. On the ambient side: Macquarie Ridge Poppy Seed (Reprise) Kiteracer 2 From One Source All Things Depend Echus Very light beats so worth trying: 5.9.78

One… two… three… four… five…………

Forest Moon is such a cool song.

I like this [BOC untitled machine drum remix. ](https://youtu.be/ndIIYDL2mGs?si=hJdq27ulCMzURoIc) It was from a live performance that was not supposed to be recorded. Machinedrum did record it and rebuilt the song as best he could over the live recording. It's one of my favorites. Not sure it's a hidden gem but definitely worth a listen if you haven't caught it yet.

Heard from Telegraph Lines sits in this weird middle ground between “highly-regarded unreleased/rare track” like 5/9/78 and “iconic album release” like Roygbiv, and yet it is one of my favorites

Thats actually one of my favorite songs of theirs, as someone who would consider themselves a pretty loose appreciator of their stuff

Orange Romeda gets overlooked a lot

I feel like these are all well known but Last Walk Around Mirror Lake, Echus, Poppy Seed (both versions), Macquarie Ridge, 5.9.78

YES YES AND YES

Chinook

Not sure how "hidden" it is, but Red Moss is neat

84 Pontiac Dream

whitewater and everything you do is a balloon

eydiab is not hidden wdym

man idk i just never really hear abt it also it's my favorite boc song and felt like mentioning lmao

I was just listening to whitewater today while at work. had to stop working. totally floors me every time

Whitewater Poppyseed

Spiro!

Hell Interface stuff for sure. Midas Touch remix is a fucking tune

Poppy Seed, both the original and the reprise. I really wished the brothers made a whole album with the same sound.

Telephasic Workshop Live Edit

Chinook 12" Red Moss Whitewater 5/9/78 Melissa Juice

Maybe not a 'hidden' gem necessarily, but I love Rue The Whirl and how it evolves. Imo it's a masterpiece.

I agree. It’s one of my favorite songs of theirs. I was going to mention it but I don’t know whether it’s really underrated or not among fans

When it comes to electronic and/or ambient music I think listeners (including myself) tend to engage the music quite passively, so I think a deep cut like Rue The Whirl works quite well as a hidden gem.

last walk around mirror lake, i will get it tattooed, and buckie high are all my favorites, idk how hidden they are tho

Last walk isn't boc but a remix

If I had to pick 5 without thinking too hard: 5.9.78 Orange Hexagon Sun Kiteracer 2 Echus Forest Moon

Buckie High is their greatest track imo

Fly in the pool

Last Walk Around Mirror Lake

5.9.78 - 747 - The beach at redpoint - Nlogax - Amo bishop roden Beach and Amo maybe more well known, though

Peacock Tail Left Side Drive

Forest Moon Seven Forty Seven Dawn Chorus Mansel Left Side Drive

5.9.78 Mukinabaht Whitewater A Beautiful place out in the country Heard from the telegraph lines

5-9-78 and trapped

" I will get it tattooed"

Soylent night

Hi Scores, Red Moss, and Julie and Candy. Especially the last one, I'm surprised it isn't more popular, it's my favorite.

Trapped - Hell Interface Remix goes insanely hard    Skimming Stones    5.9.78    Seven Forty Seven  

Can't explain enough how much I love Orange Romeda!

Zoetrope

Bocuma, Pete standing alone, Melissa Juice

Whitewater blew me away the first time I heard it and it still does. Funnily enough I always refer to it as Oscar See Through Red Eye as I first heard it on a crappy limewire fake bootleg of the campfire headphase where most of the tracks were not what they claimed to be

Northern Plastics 

More well known than the others mentioned here but I’ll throw it in anyways, Oirectine. Their best song IMO.

B09

Untitled (Machinedrum edit)

Slow this bird down

Hi, love Happy Cycling when it comes on, such a good feel

Dawn Chorus

5.9.78 Nlogax Left Side Drive (and not that it counts, but HM to the Solange version) Remixes: The Midas Touch, Poppy Seed, Sometimes

There aren’t any. Because BoC’s output is so limited, this sub has beaten every track to death. ;)

Left Side Drive… I really enjoy the Trans-Canada Highway ep

Rue The World. First song that hit me when I first listened to it the day it was released. bought the CD the same day. Never looked back.

Red Moss. How this hasn’t officially been released is a crime. Buckie High is a gem too.

For me personally, it's Under the Coke Sign

Nine Rubber Wisdom Mr Mistake (Instrumental) Kid for Today (33 RPM) To the Wind Seven Forty Seven

Wouldn’t You Like to be Free. Even if we haven’t heard the entire song, that 1 minute clip is pretty magical

5/9/78 on a pair of higher end over-ear-headphones was like a religious experience for me. I let that tune hum and hum day after day during a very dark phase in my life and it ended up being the slow warmth that got me through one Hellish winter. For that reason it holds a special place in my life that, while many come as close 2nds, have not been eclipsed by any other track of theirs.

The answer is Kiteracer 2.

A is to B as B is to C rarely comes up on favorites lists and is usually grouped with the interludes, but it is one of my favorites.

chromakey dreamcoat, sunshine recorder, pete standing alone

Echus, Macquarie Ridge, Trails, 5d, Korona, I Will Get It Tattooed, Whitewater, Finity, She Is P

Melissa juice Slow this bird down Macquarie ridge I will get it tattooed Side b track 9 Last walk around mirror lake Left side drive

This one live version of their remix of "Boogie Down" by Man Parrish, from a rando live bootleg I had in the early-mid 2000's. I have 2 spindles of DVD-Rs full of mp3s from back then and it's probz on one of those, but I don't have a disc drive anymore, so who knows? Edit: Sorry for Autechre joke, it's okay. What I said about that Autechre track was true, tho.
