Anyone heard the BoC fake ?

The supposed leak of "Campfire Headphase" better be fake as its just a terrible terrible album. Its probably the worse fake i've ever heard. Its on soulseek of course.

Brilliant. Will d/l when I get home

Does it not sound anything like BOC then?

The 1st track was over produced to give it that BoC feel but they gave up after that. its terrible.

...in your opinion obviously.

When you say fake.. do you mean that some schmo has decided to masquarade his/her talent (or lack of) under the guise of BOC or is it something the record companies do to put the scent off the definate article?

Seems an odd thing to do. The originator wont get any credit for it if they are trying to get their work out there.

Going home in T minus 1 minute. SLSK will be booted up.

Right...

Its very common for people to do this. why i dont know - its not my doing. The last two Autechre albums were faked more than once on Soulseek.

I will listen to your opinion when you have listened to it and then say "in your opinion" as well

There is a nice couple of threads elsewhere about it. There is no one being positive about it

I can understand why they do it, but then again it can also do their reputation a lot of harm if music journalists get hold of a faked copy without knowing it's faked and then slag it off...

now we got 2 BoC topics

the tracklist i got said that it was Chromakey Dreamcoat instead of Chromakey Debut..
i found a download on emule, but it won't really download tho

Chromakey Dreamcoat is correct. As usual NME have got it wrong and they are also late (WARP listed the tracklisting on the 11th). I hate the NME and this just backs up why

2nd "fake" leak was just a collection of more-obscure BoC tracks. I suspect that was the fake rabbit to knock the foxes off the scent

Likewise, I resolve never to buy the paper anymore - used to back in the '80's/'90's, but they've taken a nosedive in quality/content since I used to read it...

Agree re NME. It seems to pander to the txt msg generation with lists, 'album reviews' consisting of two sentences (unless the band happens to be an NME flavour of the month) and gossip as opposed to real news.

Not like the old days with in-depth interviews and reviews by quality journos such as Charles Shaar Murray, Nick Kent and Paul Morley.

I still like doing the crossword though - well 'ard.

More news on the fake. Quite amusing really.

check this link out and read all the way down to where a certain Casey Grabowski. He deserves to be grounded creating a terrible fake like that .lol

As one person said on another board

"jesus christ it sounded worse than that m83 wearing-emotion-like-a-bucket-of-jizz-on-your-sleeve sort of bullshit terribleness."

indeed

i just realised that one of the 320KBPS versions has a Kettel track (labelled as 06 - a moment of clarity - the campfire headphase (promotional copy only!).mp3)
