Busy Bodies Reveal the Map of Canada Puzzles

Imagine a way to explore the vastness of Canada not through geography alone, but through the vibrant sounds of its diverse communities. That’s the concept behind a unique new release from Toronto record label We Are Busy Bodies: the Map of Canada Puzzle Series.

This innovative project turns music into a geographical adventure. The series features a collection of singles, each spotlighting an incredible artist hailing from a different Canadian province and territory. It’s a musical mosaic designed to reveal the true north strong and free, one piece at a time.

The physical experience is as engaging as the concept. The set utilizes square flexidiscs that, when overlaid, seamlessly form a complete map of Canada. Fans don’t just listen to music; they actively participate in piecing together the country’s artistic landscape.

The roster of talent is wonderfully eclectic, showcasing a remarkable range of Canadian musical voices. Contributors include artists like Joel Plaskett, PIQSIQ, fanclubwallet, Prism Shores, and many more, spanning the breadth of the nation.

The geography of sound is beautifully distributed across the map:

• Northwest Territories: PIQSIQ – “Unnukkut” (Live)
• Nunavut: Terry Uyarak – “Hunting Song“
• Yukon: Cryptozoologists – “If Artistotle“
• British Columbia: Rebecca Law Gray & Brandon Wolfe Scott – “See You Later, I’m Gone“
• Alberta: Chixdiggit – “Westjet & Coachella”
• Saskatchewan: The Garrys – “Give Him A Great Big Kiss“
• Manitoba: The Bros. Landreth feat. Begonia – “Knuckles” (Live)
• Ontario: fanclubwallet – “Lullaby“
• Quebec: Laughing – “Walk Into Room“
• New Brunswick: Motherhood – “Kyle Hangs Ten“
• Prince Edward Island: Prism Shores – “Seconds Flat“
• Nova Scotia: Joel Plaskett – “Deny, Deny, Deny” (Live)
• Newfoundland and Labrador: Swimming – “Retail“

This limited edition project emphasizes exclusivity. Only 350 total copies of the series will be released, with 200 box sets available for pre-order. Furthermore, fans have the option to purchase 100 copies of each featured artist’s EP directly.

The Map of Canada Puzzle Series is a delightful reminder that music transcends borders, offering a vibrant, tangible journey across the Canadian landscape.
