Trans Canada Highway

Boards of Canada

A sun-drenched EP of tape-saturated electronics and hazy melodies. The sound of a long drive toward a fading horizon, captured on warped analog equipment.

May 19, 2006 · Warp Records

A sun-bleached, wide-eyed nostalgia that feels both expansive and deeply personal.
