From DJ Food:
'O Is For Orange' came about because of the set I made for ‘A Few Old Tunes’, the Boards of Canada-inspired night we did on June 20th in London. Because I’d edited so much video to go with it, I thought I’d finally get round to my first solo video mix too so here it is.
This is a second version because the first got taken down because of a copyright violation notice from someone. I've now re-edited the footage and taken out the offending item as well as upped the quality of the encode.
‘O Is For Orange’ is the sound of weathered tape saturation, detuned analogue synthesisers, vinyl crackle and machine hum. It’s also the look of unfocused, flickering lenses, mirror image filters and blurry grain embedded into film. Unofficial fan films sit alongside experimental animation, public information shorts and even the odd official video. Material that BoC took inspiration from blends with their own work as well as many that they inspired.
I make no apologies for the quality of the vision here, some of it is only available via the web at frustratingly small sizes. In a couple of instances I’ve actually downgraded the look and quality of the image to make it blend in better and in others, even my best attempts at filtering can’t disguise the low quality of the source material. No HD or widescreen here, I’ve gone back to 4:3 for this one even though some of the clips were originally 16:9 or wider.
