On April 23rd, Boards of Canada is dropping new heat after over a decade in the shadows. Their upcoming album Inferno hits May 29th, an 18-track double album clocking in at 70 minutes of that signature electronic vibe. It's coming via warp records in digital, CD, and 2LP formats. Fans got a taste last week with tape 05. A meditative teaser dropped cryptically on socials, but it won't make the Inferno cut. This follows their last full release, Tomorrow's Harvest from 2013, which smashed charts with a number 7 peak in the UK and number 13 on the Billboard 200. For the diehards, this is pure shock value. 13 years of radio silence from the Scottish Brothers Mike Sandison and Marcus Eowen. These guys stay enigmatic, dodging interviews and live shows since the early 2000s, building a cult around their minimal nostalgic, soundscapes. No massive hits or streams define their legacy, but they quietly influenced electronic

heads worldwide. Back in 2019, they surfaced with XYZ, an unreleased peel-session track from 1998 hint to get more in the vault. Pre-orders are live at BoardsofCanada.com, and those recent social posts with hexagonal visuals and old school clips are straight nostalgia fuel. If you're in to warp to beats and universe building tunes, Inferno is about to reset the board. That's the story for today, music news today, driven by AI, I'm Corey with The Story.
