Boards of Canada - Societas x Tape 

1:11:00 i didn't expect to hear my music here, gratefully appreciated!

I got 300 hot, screaming kids waiting to see Leo the Lizard.

People talk about having a "cool older sibling" that got them into lots of rad stuff. I never had that - but now I know what it feels like. Thanks BOC / big bros. :)

However, tracks 5, 11, and 55 are the most likely to be from Boards of Canada, as they are noticeably lower-fidelity compared to other unknown tracks. Track 11 (24:32) is possibly 'Remmy Kid' from Play by Numbers, and track 55 (1:51:50) is possibly 'Trillions' from Closes Vol.1.

Boards of Canada are geniuses honestly. I'm not even disappointed it's not new stuff, they have given me so so much to listen to that I never new existed and now love.

Reading the comment section these days while listening to music is like reading a cd booklet with the lyrics.

1.07 Severed heads. We have come to bless this house . classic BOC of got got good taste.

How has it been 5 years already? I miss BoC so much.

Recognized 70's Disneyland as soon as the image appeared.

This mix was released as we found out my dad was dying quickly from pancreatic cancer so now whenever I listen to it, I just think of him and cry. I wish I showed him this mix, he would've liked it.

This mix just gets better and better with age. Absoloutley buzzing listenin to it again in these sunnier days, what a trip!

1:22:44 was just discovered to be Strangers by The Sinking Ships!

listening live I lost my shit when that Just An Illusion edit kicked at 39mins.. the whole thing was magic

Coming back to it a year and a half later and wow. I didn't realise how great this was back when I was listening to it live. I was so stuck on the mindset of "is this BOC???" "Someone find the name of that track" that I ultimately failed to enjoy the mix to its fullest. Sad that I didn't record the WXAXRXP chatroom during the mix, it was crazy.

I find I keep coming back to this mix and listening and re reading the comments. Listening to this live will forever stay with me. Sending good vibes to all boc fanatics and music lovers.

it was crazy experiencing this live, not just this but the entirety of wxaxrxp was a blast.

thank you for not smoking

The ambient track that plays at 57:06 - 59:20 hit me like a train. How can they just drop the best ambient track of the year nonchalantly like that.

Hearing this live was the best 2 hours I've had in a long time. I was ecstatic.

so cool they put Devo on here

It's like a Boards Of Canada buffet, except you never get full ∞ . You just crave more. So many gems...so many. Thank You, BOC

its great and they seem more cheerful and hopeful than Tomorrow s Harvest

hope i'm not the only one here who finds the minute maid bit at 44:41 endlessly amusing

Oh MAN. Shrivel Up people! Devo! That is one freaky track, love it.

Thank you so much for this. Massively appreciated

Excellent. Thanks for upload. Wonderful 2 hours. Loved it.

Sweet jeezus. Thanks for posting!

This is incredible, thank you for sharing!

Thank you for posting. This has been quite an enjoyable listening experience. I have been really inspired by this mix. Bringing forth songs of before, but in many ways "new". Also, hearing the fingerprints of the duo adds another element that creates the experience! Exciting 2 hours. Thank you again for posting

You are my hero for uploading ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Very brilliant upload. Thanks!

This mix is absolutely fantastic!

This is amazing. Great selection. Inspired stuff.

Thank you for sharing! I couldn't listen live while it happened.

I had no idea about many of these artist so this stream opened up years of new music for me to fall in love with. Thank you BOC!

I was just listening to BoC's Warp10 live set and I remembered the 30th anniversary was this year too. What an awesome mix, I needed a new one to listen to after listening to their old tapes and such.

Thanks for capturing this! I had social obligations and wasn't able to listen live. Man that first Jasper Van't Hof piece really announced the set beautifully. 1976 incarnate!

Damn this caught me by surprise. Prolly the best BoC mix I've heard so far

Before the transmission began, I thought about the person who would work to share it. So... Thanks a lot man.

wxaxrxp was amazing

What a mind bending set! It took me by surprise. I was sceptic at first, but by the end of the set I just wanted to keep on listening. These guys are on another level.

glad you put this up. cheers. love the track at 1 hr 37.30, spacey vocals.

I was listening and had a blast. I recorded it. I am listening to it at home right now. Total darkness and orange juice.

As a huge BOC fan, it was a pleasure to find this in my recommendations. Thank you!

This is so f-ing great. Big BoC fan here, astonished at the intriguing "otherness" of this sound file. Thank you.

..yes i wanted all new boc, but this was such a journey of a mix..

Severed Heads… that’s such a standout track. Sounds like it was recorded yesterday.

This set list took 6 minutes to blow me away..

This is what the internet is for. Will be listening to this all day at work.

love this!

This is by far one of my favorite albums this year. Retro sounds I remeber.

Best mix of all time, in my humble opinion

Thank you very much. I love this😌

The Set that keeps on giving.

How have i only just discovered this ! Boards of Canada where have you gone ? i miss you !

Crazy that I already feel nostalgia for this mix

I like track 58 it's relaxing for me.

brilliant!! the 30th anniversary of Warp was great, for me, BoC were surely inspired by those songs!!

Yesssshhhhhhhhhh this has made my day...

So happy I was able to discover the One Foundation - Dance With Us Oh Lord track from this mix Thanks to the Scottish brothers!

Quite simply the best DJ set I have ever had the pleasure of hearing :-)

Makes me 1000 times more creative. great set!

Been listening to this tape all season. I love when it creeps on autoplay and I just have to absorb it all, which is what just happened about to fire this joint up and go to spaceland

Some really great stuff in there!

cracking set listened to it live these boys never disappoint

Musical pioneers. They are like the stain that remains on the back of antique after all this time.

Very different flavor from the albums but you can definitely hear their hallmarks poking though. Very nice and thank you for posting!

That's an amazing photo of their performance!

What a time to be alive!

Amazing. Thank you.

Thank you! what a great mix BOC rules Play>Repeat

nice remix of Magic Window at 1:02:06

Man, what a memorable broadcast. I was invited to a private chat group with 50 people around the globe. Everyone was tuned in and expressing their anticipation for each track!

Oh Severed Heads !!! One thing more to love BoC

That's exactly how I expected BOC to look when playing live.

Wow, this is great!

28:30 I like what they did there with those vintage tv station jingles.

We need a new BOC album already man

1:04:45 includes the Egberto Gismondi song played at 80x! (Credit to BOC FB group member Håkon Lunde)

just fantastic

As a gamer, the very first opening part of this mix reminds me of the scene in Zelda a Link to the Past, whereby LInk must navigate to (and through) the dungeons to save his uncle. Great Mix, btw.

Brilliant mix

lysergic oddments and combinations of plaid not seen since nixon. good to see that victrola EP in here, an absolute gem, that.

A few striking things I still take away from all of BoC's influences and favorites past and present: Hearing The Free Life from Alan Parker, part of the iconic Themes/KPM Music Library and DEVO. I didn't know Shrivel-Up at the time so I thought it was a song from an obscure VHS. When that dissonant synth part came in my jaw dropped at how much BoC uses that sound/technique. The Spud Boys most famous for "Whip It" had an impact on Boards of Canada! Sea Cathedral was the perfect ending and now we know where Farewell Fire came from.

Wow this is great. Following BoC and their music is as close as I will ever get to the comfort that others would find in things like religion. Love hearing the influences. You know the Sandison lads have a fucking amazing record collection. We need to hear more please!! Maybe an album influenced by abandoned mall music to give us the nostalgia we crave!

Thank you!!!

why would any1 dislike this piece of awesomeness??????

Thank you so much ;)

The Tomorrowland Stage at Disneyland Anaheim Cali! It pops up out of the ground as the band plays. My girlfriend and I danced to Bachmann Turner Overdrive there one night. Too bad they don't serve Cherry Mists anymore but still great hamburgers!

absolutely time for another one (-:

1:40:47 Tarantula - Colourbox I was super excited about the mix the whole time, but when this song came in i literally broke, you guys have a super nice taste!

That WGBH intro sample is so smooth

This is amazing. I just downloaded this video Incase it gets taken down for whatever reason lol

This is a satisfying BOC fix whilst they may or may not be working on new original material

Wow, totally EPIC ! Thanx, this is gold !

I'm just gonna live here, now.

This makes me very happy. There are few things that are my favorites, but Boards of Canada has been my favorite music since 2007. I feel alive.

The last track!!!
