christlike video behavior

Currently on heavy rotation in the ffwd household is Christ.'s Metamorphic Reproduction Miracle album, which is so so so Boards Of Canada that it's not surprising to learn that Christ is heavily affiliated with the legendary Scottish idm duo - either an ancient ex-member of BoC, or maybe even more. Anyhow, it's delicate, echo-ing fields of mellow idm, and it works wonderfully.

While wandering around the Boards Of Canada fansite at the excellent We Are The Music Makers supersite, was delighted to see the official winners of a BoC music video contest are available for download there. The contest was judged by the super-reclusive BoC chaps themselves, and the three winners are all great, particularly the super-abstract beauty of June 9th by Sam Smith.

Oh, and talking of music videos, WATMM has a link to more info about the amazing Chris Cunningham DVD that's upcoming from Palm Pictures, alongside similarly great Spike Jonze and Michael Gondry retrospectives. September can't get here quickly enough.
