Warp Records Hints at Boards Of Canada Return with Mysterious Posters

The Scottish duo's long-time label has shared social media posts featuring images of the posters in different locations around the world

Speculation around the return of Boards Of Canada has been further intensified by the presence of a number of mysterious posters in different worldwide locations, with Warp Records sharing social media posts showing said posters.

Reddit users have been documenting the presence of the posters over the past week, which have been spotted in different locations in London, Tokyo, Los Angeles, New York and other cities. The creepy visuals depict ghostly figures, such as a woman and a child, with entirely white eyes. They also feature the Hexagon Sun symbol that has long been associated with the duo, as did the VHS tapes seemingly sent out by Warp and retail arm Bleep last week, which sparked initial speculation of Boards Of Canada’s return.

Warp has now further backed up the speculation of the connection to Boards Of Canada by sharing images of the posters in posts on X and Instagram.

The rollout of the VHS tapes and posters echoes past teaser campaigns by Boards Of Canada, which included the unannounced sale of a small number of 12-inch vinyl records on 2013’s Record Store Day in the lead-up to the release of that year’s Tomorrow’s Harvest LP. The duo haven’t officially released new music since that album.
