It’s just an empty room — a literal blank space. Ok, well, there is that pile of furniture, arranged in a jumbled, haphazard way that suggests either a makeshift sanctuary or an arcane, sacred ritual. And a cardboard cutout of what looks like an ancient Nazarean, playing an echoing recording of various languages. And a random stop sign, with its central command curiously rendered backwards as if glimpsed in a mirror. And yes, if you venture past that first opening and keep moving down an endless series of hallways, all of which are fluorescently lit for maximum migraine potential and…
After teasing fans for weeks with cryptic VHS tapes, Boards of Canada return with an hour of textured, psychedelic IDM and ambient.

But do you remember the indie pop of the 2000s-and-something? Suddenly we were overwhelmed by a new declination of punk, made up of energetic synth guitar playing combined with choruses and dream. A shot, let's say, of positivity, which has allowed the more niche garage bands to invade the homes not so much of the mainstream, but to please everyone a bit. We were all “indie”, all with the cowlick, with the squares, in short, it was a period we could say “positive”; Maybe it was because for the undersigned it was in the middle of university, four months in…
