Boards Of Canada - Twoism, Reissue Vinyl EP WARPLP70R
Factory Sealed (New)
Twoism is the first EP released by Scottish electronic music duo, Boards of Canada, on their own Music70 record label in 1995.
Twoism, presents us with a Boards of Canada that is youthful and naïve, yet to fulfil the grandiose uniqueness of its musical vision and, perhaps, as yet unaware even of quite what that musical vision is. Nevertheless it’s a charming record. Eight tracks (nine, if you include the unlisted bonus at the end of ‘Smokes Quantity’) of pleasantly bubbling ambient techno, free of the weight of creative necessity and of the darkness that would slowly creep into their work over time.
Often considered the Holy Grail of IDM (and not too long ago trading for a cool thousand dollars on eBay), ownership of one of the original 100 pressed-wax Twoism EPs guaranteed entrance into the upper echelon of electronica. And now, Warp Records have brought it back for old and new fans alike.
