ah...I've been skimming this post from my phone, so I did miss that MDG reply.

Oh, well. My sentiments over how well done this compilation is and how much I enjoy the compilations Touched puts out and the charitable causes it represents still stands, obviously. That, and, again, whoever did Doloxon earned themselves a fan. Ace work.

Yeah, when you drop the Purdy shuffle in a track, I am an instant fan!

I think that comment on Discogs is just some guy guessing the artists on the release.

That's what I thought too, funny seeing people assume there was some validity behind it so quickly :)

You really think someone would do that? Just go on the internet and tell lies?
If The Campfire Headphase was a butterfly, would Acid Memories be the caterpillar?
Spoiler: show

If Touched are saying BoC are on this when theyre not... yeah, not buying. I have no problems buying obviously BoC inspired to the point of cloned stuff if I like it. But the moment it tries to pass itself off as BoC it crosses a line for me. Whether its someone drifting in here as they do from time to time with a fake leak or lost album or a charity like this. Its scummy behaviour. I'll donate to cancer research myself thanks.

mdg knows.

not to mention the fallacy of 'cancer research'... and i know that sounds harsh. intentions are good but mainstream ideas of how cancer can and has been treated have serious blind spots. and its really a drag that one can't often say these things without being pinned as a new-age conspiracy theorist.

I agree, and I also agree that if touched is lying about BoC presence on this compilation, then it should be boycotted, as you can't thrust anything they say, not even that a single dime goes to serious cancer research. If you want to support scientific research on cancer, there are numerous better options on where to place your money than buying this album.

Wow! This has went from the thrill of a secret BOC track being on this compilation, to accusations of the compilers of said compilation being up to no good. I usually believe whatever MDG says on BOC related topics, always a good source to rely on.
Looks like the Touched guy's are going to have to be more specific and clarify things for definite,or accept these accusations ? (why would they lie ? the backlash would be so harsh)
Shame really. Hope it's sorted out, it is for a good cause

Ok time i better say something, all the money that comes in for the touched albums go here
http://www.justgiving.com/Touched-Music
i did never say that Boards of Canada were 100% on this album, it was the few people that i sent the album to said that tracks sounded like boards of canada and aphex and so on, so the rumour mill started and i went with it, the point of covert is that you don’t know who the artists are and that it was ment to be 100% about the music and the cause, they are the 2 most important bits.
i may have got carried away with the rumours my self as all i wanted to do was raises money for the Charity.
what more do you want me to say? sorry if its pissed any of you off but all I’m trying to do is a good thing and i think the album is great.

The album is indeed great. But ya, you definitely did get carried away lol. I'm just glad you openly admitted that and hopefully you won't repeat such a thing because doing a great thing does not justify unethical means. Also, LFO? lol really? He's been dead for over a year now.

Anyway, all is forgiven in my books. Thanks again for the great album and for taking the time to come here to explain yourself and apologizing.

I’ll be doing touched 3 next year so if anyone wants to be part of that let me know.
