Boards of Canada stretch out their wide-open daydreams on Trans Canada Highway, the 2006 EP that sits as a quietly beautiful coda to The Campfire Headphase.
The Scottish duo of brothers Michael Sandison and Marcus Eoin had spent the previous decade making some of electronic music's most haunting records for Warp, built from wobbly analogue synths, half-heard voices and the faded colours of old educational films. By the mid-2000s they had started weaving in guitars, and this short release carries that warmer, more organic sound further down the road.
"Dayvan Cowboy" is the centrepiece, a slow-building rush of guitar and drums that swells into something cinematic and quietly euphoric. "Left Side Drive" rolls along on a hazy, unhurried groove, while "Heard from Telegraph Lines" and "Skyliner" drift into the duo's familiar territory of soft focus and gentle melancholy. Odd Nosdam closes the set with a hazy, broken-down remix of "Dayvan Cowboy" that feels like the same song heard through a car radio losing signal.
Short but generous, it plays like a road trip at golden hour, with the window down and nowhere urgent to be.
For Boards of Canada devotees, it is an essential piece of the catalogue and a lovely place to start for the curious.
