20 YEARS AGO: Boards Of Canada - Olson (Version 3)

Released in January 1999, the 'Peel Session TX 21/07/1998' EP by Boards Of Canada featured four tracks from their July 1998 session, recorded for the John Peel Show on Radio 1. From it comes the transcendental 'Olson (Version 3)'. 

The original broadcast contained an additional track 'XYZ', which was initially part of the EP, but had to be removed due to sample licensing issues, leading to copies of the EP containing 'XYZ' to become a sought-after rarity.

The Scottish duo consisting of brothers Michael Sandison and Marcus Eoin have been making music since the late 80s. Their most recent album was 2013's 'Tomorrow's Harvest'.
