 Splendid E-zine reviews: Boards of Canada
On the day I listened to Music Has the Right to Children four times in a row whilst working in my office, I was constantly bothered by other people.
Their music can percolate gently, and quite unobtrusively, in the background of almost any setting.

 Boards of Canada: Music Has the Right to Children: Pitchfork Review   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
Music Has the Right to Children stands as an excellent example of what UK label Warp is doing for modern electronic music.
Warp has taken a handful of killer acts whose only common trait is that they're electronic-focused, and created a sound that is both distinctly Warp, and yet completely unpredictable.
By creating ambient music that's actually stimulating-- something that's so unbelievably rare among ambient acts-- and mixing it with elements of trance and psychedelia, Boards of Canada are not only pioneering an entirely new genre, but also paving the way for more stimulating ambient/electronic groups that will hopefully become increasingly prevalent in the new millennium.

It has been said before, it is very much a slow burning album that just gets better with every listen and you'll gradually begin to love the simple and gentle childlike melodies set against a jagged mechanical back beat which keeps you hooked throughout.
I used to describe it as the kind of music that synthesizers listen to (at least the ones with good taste) and predicted that it would eventually be considered as 'classical' music by the machine intelligences of the future.
Music from the future that somehow manages to stir childhood memories from the past with familiar noises and moods.

 Boards of Canada: In A Beautiful Place Out In The Country - PopMatters Music Review
In their music you hear the slack-jawed silence of mesmerized pre-teens lulled to near unconsciousness by a babysitter's recourse to Bert, Ernie and the entire Children's Television Workshop.
Their music is not an attempt to re-live or revive the golden years of toddler-esque innocence or teenage rebellion.
It paints a purely natural environment -- a musical experience that reflects a child's entranced amazement at a solitary polar bear roaming the Arctic or a family of whales floating in the murky depths of the North Sea.

MHTRTC proved to me upon the first audition that electronic music could be beautifully layered, warm, colorful and evocative.
MHTRTC is BOC's first "official" LP, although they had previously released several EPs, cassettes, and singles prior to signing up with Warp/Matador and Skam.

The first thing to note is that Music Has the Right revealed Boards of Canada to be geniuses with texture, where god is in the details.
Every IDM artist since has at least once labored over their modular unit to get a patch that sounds like one of the many brilliant sounds found here.
But with Music Has the Right to Children, the duo set out to make a proper album, and approached the album from a rock perspective, carefully mixing and editing the track sequence, while drafting interludes and tightly restricting the palette.

Enjoyable and should be of interest to fans of the artist or genre, but has specific weaknesses.

 BOARDS OF CANADA - Music Has The Right To Children
Since Music Has The Right To Children though, and apart from an EP, In A Beautiful Place Out In The Country released a year and a half ago, there had been very little activity on the BOC front, Warp being reduced to paraphrasing a beer ad by saying that the duo were taking their time.
Although Music Has The Right To Children was the first album from the band to benefit of a wide release, it was not their first record.
Beside the musical project, BOC were also experimenting with imagery, enhancing their live performances with films and photos.

It has the renowned effect of "bringing back memories" that you never even had, its like theyve condensed that feeling of nostalgia and made it into audible form.
The music seems to evoke memories of a childhood you never had -- a childhood full of giddy expectation and joy, but at the same time consumed by cynicism and worry.

Though their saturated hip-hop beats and deployment of timbres as tactile textures recalls Autechre, Boards of Canada are distinguished by sweet melodies and a fondness for using vaguely familiar sounds outside of Western harmonic tradition--snippets of party conversations, bouncing Ping-Pong balls--to function as emotional triggers.
Despite its sonic watercolor washes and childlike exclamations of "I love you" ("The Color of the Fire"), Music Has the Right to Children is not some yellowing document scribbled by glassy-eyed, loved-up rave casualties.
Music Has The Right To Children is their most successful Warp/Matador release.

Although Boards of Canada's blueprint for electronic listening music -- aching electro-synth with mid-tempo hip-hop beats and occasional light scratching -- isn't quite a revolution in and of itself, Music Has the Right to Children is an amazing LP.
Similar to the early work of Autechre and Aphex Twin, the duo is one of the few European artists who can match their American precursors with regard to a sense of spirit in otherwise electronic music.
Alternating broadly sketched works with minute-long vignettes (the latter of which comprise several of the best tracks on the album), Music Has the Right to Children is one of the best electronic releases of 1998.

First up, there's no doubt that Boards of Canada have produced a highly musical and intelligent contemporary record, which is why I am writing this review; it is something that all us music fans should be very thankful for.
This disappointed me, as I thought it meant that the album was bad, but as with all music, I gave it a second chance.
One day there is a chill wind blowing, next there is fog, next there is a sunny haze, etc. This music is all about moods, and if you just sit and let it take you where it will you will get the most out of it.

Boards of Canada are on the same record label that brought us Bola, so it should be no surprise that the music here is a mixture of the ethereal and the surreal.
The music is green and cold: it's fresh, alive, and filled with surprises.
The rest is much, much weirder, and the album as a whole does a wonderful job doing exactly what music is supposed to do--recreate images of dreams, lost memories, and distant emotions.

Music Has The Right To Children - Boards Of Canada : The Colour of the Fire
Boards Of Canada originally published music with a small indie label called Skam and later published with Warp Records home to Aphex Twin, Squarepusher, Black Dog and a host of other artists one of whom is LFO.
Boards of Canada originally come from Scotland and as such their music seems to have a touch of the mythic aurora lights about it.

 Boards Of Canada - Music Has The Right To Children
'Music Has The Right To Children' is like a statement of intent as if the mind control suggested by the album title is actually real.
Perhaps it is. The distorted child's voice uttering "I love you" repeatedly on 'The Color Of The Fire' induces fear, the melodies of 'Roygbiv' and 'Aquarius' seem familiar yet their origins cannot be placed.
The music cries out for a film to accompany it but that would possibly cheapen the power of it; for the pictures in the mind are ultimately more beguiling.

 Boards of Canada - Geogaddi review
Scottish duo Boards of Canada's debut release, the beautiful "Music Has The Right To Children", brought to electronica a warmth and gentleness seldom encountered in a genre infamous for cold beats and noises.
From the opening few minutes - particularly "Music is Math", since the first track, "Ready Let's Go", serves as little more than the brief introduction hinted at by its name - it's clear that we're in darker territory than that of the debut.
So - more essential than even Music Has The Right To Children, this is an album that will haunt you, that will reward your efforts, that deserves a place in your collection, whatever genres of music you think you like.

The EP Hooper Bay (MUsic 70, 1994), whose extended compositions are Seward Leaf, Noatak and Point Hope, heralded their mature phase, which yielded the 20 ambient tracks of the album Boc Maxima (MUsic 70, 1995), particularly the melancholy Everything You Do Is A Balloon and their early masterpiece Turquoise Hexagon Sun.
The problem with their first full-length album, Music Has The Right To Children (Warp, 1998), is that it is too obviously inspired by their mentors Autechre.
Il punto debole del loro primo album, Music Has The Right To Children (Warp, 1998), è; che l'influenza dei loro mentori Autechre è fin troppo evidente.

 Boards of Canada - Artist page at TuneVault.com
The appeal of Boards of Canada is huge and easy to understand: they are admired by hard-to-please electronic music fans for their intricate and innovative production, yet at the same time loved by thousands for their dreamlike melodies and the lush psychedelic world they create for the listener.
A subtle precursor to the ground-breaking ‘Music Has the Right to Children’, ‘Twoism’ gently maps BOC’s twilight territory, exploring the themes that would later become unquestionably their own: bittersweet evocations of childhood, haunted pastoral spaces, contriving a detached perspective, or drift, through their grainy organic electronics.
Already hailed by NME as ’electronic album of the year’, this is the full length follow up to their 1998 electronic classic ’Muisc Has The Right To Children’.

 Music : Twoism   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
Not as consistently engaging as "Geogaddi" (my fave), it is more even than "Music has the right to chidren" in my view.
It has an otherworldy, BOC anthem-like quality that pervades some of the tunes on the longer "Geogaddi" and "Music has the right to children" CDs.
This is a really bleak album, more than even Geogaddi, which has a backbone of aggression that keeps it from becoming depressing.

 Boards of Canada Reviews
Geogaddi, like Boards of Canada's 1998 debut album, Music Has the Right to Children, drifts its way into consciousness, rolling a fog of dark-hued psychedelia over slow-burning, lullaby melodies.
Having led a reclusive existence in their Hexagon Sun studio, shunning interviews and live shows in an effort to escape the shrill, loud praise that accompanied Children's release, the enigmatic Scottish duo has stayed focused, creating another tour de force in the process.
While not as adventuresome as those records, this EP is still Boards Of Canada all the way, as ample chunks of the band's unsettling and deeply involving style are easily found in songs like "Smokes Quantity" and the title track.

 StarPolish Current Issues: Intelligent Dialogue From Music Industry Professionals and Artists
True, they had begun making recordings in 1989 and spent years developing the sound of Music Has the Right to Children, but for many of us, that album was our first contact with BOC.
"Scientific psychedelic music" is what they call their current work, and if you need a tagline, that's as good as any.
A standout is "1969," which trips to a skip-along beat, as music swirls through the air, and a voice speaks in tongues before it is joined by additional robotic voices that chant "1969 in the sunshine."
