Their ability to combine loping, Trip-Hop beats with modulated, warm, muted electronics was immediately apparent. This earlier EP showed a heavy debt to Electro while laying down the specifics for the themes that they would pursue on their debut record, <I>Music Has the Right to Children</I>. Released in '98, the record was a bright light in the haze of electronic music that year, marked by stripped-down warm tones, handclaps, random vocal samples and melodies which seemed childlike (but these children were playing on a much colder, enshrouded playground). Their slow motion Funk has also been captured on a recent Peel Sessions release. - Jon PruettLeftfield/IDMen720Mon, 28 Dec 2009 22:33:53 -0800 http://static.realone.com/rotw/images/logo_rhapsody_113x22.gif http://mp3.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.3991&rws=%2Fboards-of-canada%2Fdiscography.rss This Scottish duo came to the surface on the influential Skam label in 1996.
