Boards of Canada | Untitled (Machinedrum Edit)

[Travis Stewart, a.k.a. Machinedrum]

Travis Stewart, better known in the music world as Machinedrum, set free his remix of an unreleased, untitled Boards of Canada track earlier today. The edit is a step and a half away from Stewart’s previous work (see previously: Machinedrum | Alarmaa), which showcases his clearly eclectic taste in music. Below is Travis’s process in reworking the relatively unknown Boards of Canada song.

“I decided to take this bootleg recording and re-produce it for fun. Using the recording I laid new drums over the existing drum patterns (almost 100% accurate to original), replayed some synth parts and the bassline. The only thing I didn’t try to re-create was the original vocoder parts and some random samples so I used the original bootleg recording for that. I was tempted to make a shorter 4-5 minute version but I figured I should preserve the original piece in its intended length.”
