Day 2: my least favourite song—Dayvan Cowboy
30 days of music, but Boards of Canada day 2.
Least favourite: good words. BoC haven't done anything bad in my view. But Dayvan Cowboy is an easy choice. May be the only BoC recording with an official video, which says it all.
The album it belongs to, The Campfire Headphase, is BoC at their most coffee table (despite sublime moments like Peacock Tail, Oscar See Through Red Eye and Ataronchronon). There's nothing wrong with it. It's an accessible way in. I'd probably put it on a mixtape for BoC beginners. But it's nowhere near the advanced-listening curriculum.
