Boards of Canada share documentary of album listening party in the desert
The enigmatic promotional campaign for new Boards of Canada album Tomorrow’s Harvest now sees the band release cinematic footage of last month’s listening event at an abandoned water park in the desert.
The event, advertised only through a cryptic image published on the band’s Twitter, has been filmed by Neil Krug, who has previously collaborated with Ladytron and Gonjasufi, and whose dizzying slide film visuals were used on the video for ‘Reach For The Dead.’
At the site of the abandoned Lake Dolores Waterpark in the Californian Mojave Desert, the Scottish electronic duo premièred their new LP- their first since 2005′s The Campfire Headphase- to a small crowd of fans.
Tomorrow’s Harvest is released in the UK today, and was showcased at a number of similar (though less extravagantly located) listening events at independent record stores.
Watch footage of the Lake Dolores event below:
