• Soundtrack your apocalypse / Boards of Canada return

    It seems we have real confirmation of new Boards of Canada music. We, at fuzzy frontiers, are falling apart over this. Tears flowing, the whole nine yards. Apocalyptic visuals, epic strings, oodles of saturation. It sounds and looks amazing.


  • Massive Attack, Tom Waits – Boots on the Ground

    dark times for humanity


  • BOC-related excitement.

    Though we’re trying to do actual work, it’s very hard to concentrate knowing that somewhere, out there, there might be a new Boards of Canada album in the works, being pressed? Who knows. In a half-decade of absolute dystopian misery, it would be fitting now, wouldn’t it? It seems as relevant a time as any to write a ridiculously lengthy essay about Boards of Canada, which we might just do in the near future. In the meantime, here’s a bunch of vids, old and new, that we’ve been raking over for the last few days.


  • The Velvet Underground Live ’69

    Back off my holibobs, the sun’s shining, and the YouTube algorithm presented me with this beautiful clip of the Velvet Underground performing I’m Waitin’ for the Man. It’s a thing of great subcultural beauty and has cheered me right up! I hope it does you.


  • Billy Fuller – Three Blind Mice

    Fantastic new fugue-like business from Billy Fuller of Beak>. Taken from his forthcoming solo album on Invada Records. And an exceptional video from Echo Panda to go alongside it. Can’t ask for more, really.


  • Current Viewing: Contrapoints – Saw

    Natalie Wynn is back, with an excellent analysis of the movie franchise Saw and movie violence in general. Get some snacks, get a cosy blanket and enjoy


  • Jim Ghedi – What Will Become of England

    Ashamed to say I’d never heard of Jim Ghedi until I stumbled across his work via the ever-inspiring Stone Club Podcast today. I’ve listened to this particular track about a gazillion times today.


  • Martin Kornberger & Volker Kuhn – Return of the Magician [1987]

    Home alone on a late February Saturday night, and I’m listening to this.


  • Helena Hauff – Yoyaku Instore Session

    It’s been a complicated few weeks; I don’t get as much time as I’d like to listen to music at the moment. That said, I’ve been fixing some small code issues on the site today and enjoying this mix from Helena Hauff. Some lovely bits on here mixed deftly by a brilliant DJ. What more can you ask?
