FILE UNDER: downbeat electronica, IDM

INFO: Boards of Canada is the duo of Michael Sandison (born July 14, 1971) and Marcus Eoin (born May
27, 1973). Based on the northern coast of Scotland, the group got its start on acclaimed experimental electronica label Skam in 1996 after recording an obscene number of tracks and pressing the best of them up as a miniscule-run 12", Twoism, an eight-track promo EP the group sent to labels in lieu of a demonstration tape. The pair's first official release appeared on Skam toward the middle of 1996, and was quickly hailed as among the label's finest releases to date.
