[edit] Mark?

Could you (NotsraM) explain who "Mark" from the two quotations is? Would it be possible to elaborate in the article on this person's connection with Boards of Canada? Thanks. Wowbobwow12 02:27, 13 December 2006 (UTC)

I'll field that. Some background; WATMM is an electronic music website and forum that hosted one of the preeminent Boards of Canada websites, as well as prominent sites on other Warp Records artists Aphex Twin, Autechre and Squarepusher. Because of this, he had some contacts with Warp and some of the artists he covered, including contacts with Boards of Canada's elusive Hexagon Sun collective. Joyrex maintained a special account on the forum to allow the band to monitor discussions and remove sensitive information or slanderous material regarding the bad. It was from this account ("Hexagon Sun") that this rare post was made, signed "-mark, hs". Because of Joyrex's known contacts with the band (he hosted a fan video contest in which BoC judged the entries), this post is widely considered to be a legitimate communication from an official representative of the band.
