Boards of Canada is a Scottish electronic music duo consisting of brothers Michael Sandison and Marcus Eoin Sandison. Their recordings, most famously the EP 'Hi Scores' for Skam and the album 'Music Has the Right to Children' for Warp are reminiscent of the warm, scratchy, artificial sounds of 1970s television and contain recurring themes of childhood and nostalgia. Michael and Marcus admit to being inspired by the documentary films of the National Film Board of Canada, from which the group's name is derived. The duo has recorded a few minor works as Hell Interface.
