Boards of Canada - Random 35 Tracks Tape (Noise Reduction Removal)
Фильм және анимация
A restoration of the 320kbps rip of BoC's Random 35 tracks tape, getting rid of the destructive artifacts the noise reduction applied in the original rip caused (reverse reverb, loss of highs and transients etc), and bringing back the details and tape hiss to give a better idea of what the original tape rip sounded like with no processing done to it.
Clicks caused by CD skipping and track changes were fixed by theniski, can't thank him enough for the help: / @theniski

Track A09 28:48 sounds like the national anthem to a country that never existed.

have you ever heard of the man from Taured?
It's insane how great it sounds now. It's my favourite "album" because of how eclectic and primitive it is. I feel like switchng from 64kbps to 320kbps. Thank you so much , I cannot express how happy I am.
B07 is so incongruous with the rest of BoC work because it's peppy and upbeat. I really love the track, but I'm so used to the generally melancholy natures of BoC.
A06 sounds like a demo of Seven Forty Seven, gorgeous
A05 and A13 sounds deep deep in my brain since many years ago
B12 still makes me fall into this endless pit of sorrow. I'll never be able to shield myself against this sound and melody. Masterpiece.

In your dreams, and mine too, buts been 10 years and their last album was far from my mark of being great, of course that’s just my opinion.
The perfect soundtrack to listen to when browsing r/LiminalSpace.
Another thing to note is that at 47:15 on Audiotrack B02, you can hear a faint telephone ring in the background.
Never realized the same vocal sample in A12 is used in Aquarius version 3
A14 could be in a Depeche Mode álbum like Black Celebration or Music for the Masses

Was exactly my thought! But didn't think of exact DM album but rather than earlier stuff (since Alan Wilder).
I've clicked through so many videos, through so many incredible, weird ambient landscapes... I feel like I'm going on a train trip, seeing a succession of crazy, never-before-seen scenes from history, important, weird musics through the window as I pass... there's so much to explore. So many places to alight and dwell in the ambiences that are on offer. This stop, in particular, is brilliant 🤠

BOC is not like the other girls Peerless in this musical space
I have just found this, loved BoC for years, but this is new to my ears so thank you. It has that pang you only get with BoC - you wish you had these tunes in your possession, but you probably never will, so it's bitter sweet as you listen to them in captured moments of knowing exultation. The hidden knowledge that on their game, nobody in the world is or has ever been better at this type of thing than BoC, but that the whole world will never know... They are the only band I have ever been approached about when wearing an old T-shirt of theirs I had. Happened several times, one guy I have struck up a friendship with... only BoC I suppose.

@@grinderfoot3371 They probably wouldn't be preserved on a tape rip. Besides, this isn't a release, just a bunch of songs which aren't really compiled with much rhyme or reason. So that's a lot of work to put the messages in, and for no reason, as nobody who isn't a friend of boc was supposed to hear this
B09 is the good ending.

But that requires an expedition to the site of SCP 3008 to find them and making it back as well.
fun facts about the cd skips: - as far as it goes, A07 has a hell lot of them, someone must have burned the noise reduced rip to a badly scratched CDr as this is just unbearable - this is exactly why it looks so ugly on the spectogram (i was the first person to notice the cd skipping and it was a complete accident). the track also has repeated chunks of audio. also none of that is present on the "unreleased materials" re-encode, which serves as proof what i said is correct (or at least makes sense and is realistic) - some tracks have a small amount of random clicks, audible but not severe (A01, A06, A08, A10, etc), they also must've been put on the already NRed rip - now here's the actually interesting part: while i did fix the A09 CD skips (which i didn't even realize were a thing until the NR was restored properly, cant count all the NR algorithms i and sdoww tried doing reverse NR with before oliveoil came up with this one) i noticed the CD skips are not only fainter and quieter, but they cut off at around 15 kilohertz. and, unlike the previous tracks, these CD skips are the only ones that actually DO appear on the "unreleased materials" encode of A09. that basically means that A09 is either sourced from CD or the entire tape was recorded from a single CDr (but first off, i think the only kind of people to do that is people who were too poor to afford an aux cord, second, practically impossible for A09 to be the only track with tape compressed CD skips that way, so i feel like this second theory is far worse and less likely). just some things not really ever analyzed throughtly on this tape

It sounds like it could be a sample from Ecophony Rinne. but probably just a gamelan recording cuz I can't imagine that joint finding its way to scotland in the 90s
Just about the last thing left on this planet that is worth caring about, apart from nature itself, is another BOC release. Right?
A08 all day
A03 sounds a lot like a Royksopp's song, "Sombre detune". Or actually vice-versa.
how did you do it ? Did you manipulated the Noise reducted rip , or is it based on an roginal rip ? how can it sounds better if you worked on an already deteriorated version? It definetly sounds betters in the end, so great job.

Here's what i said in response to someone asking the same thing on the boc subreddit: "For the method itself I simply recreated the noise profile with some white noise with a slight boost in the very low ends. I "learned" said noise to IZotope RX 9's robust but quite primitive noise reduction module to filter out the noise and music separately in different tracks. I boosted the noise back to it's original dB level (about 10dB) based on the fragmented 192kbps leak that doesn't have any processing done to it. The music was kept at its original level."

Can you undo the noise reduction of AFOT from the .flac rip?
@oliveoil22
2 жыл бұрын
that one's tougher since the reduced details are much more cleaned out and there's a completely different, more "advanced" noise reduction algorithm at play that's a bit harder to replicate with the modern software I have. I've been doing a little digging on what the original ripper could've used to noise reduce the audio (this would've been late 90s to early 2000s) but I haven't come near anything close yet.
