I usually don’t spend more than a few hours on these contest entries, which means I rarely get the result I’m looking for.
The Boards of Hollandia track turned out way too clean sounding for that particular style… A scratchy record and more background sounds would’ve been a good idea indeed.
Thanks for listening!

I rather liked your Boards of Canada clone — it is actually a lot more musically textured than most of their stuff.
If you really wanted to completely ape that style, you could just record the run out groove of a scratchy record and mix it in with the drums and roll off the high end. And it isn’t until the end that you jump on their main trick — a slow LFO on pads so they drift about 10 cents every couple of seconds, like you’re playing a record with an off center spindle hole.
Oh, and record a schoolyard with children playing, and run it through agressive telephone EQ and loop it underneath with a slow LFO on the volume level.
