## What is Mabus?

An active Apple Music subscription is required for the full Mabus experience, including album playback, artwork, track information, and music controls. Without a subscription, you can still use the silent standalone visualizer.

Experience Inferno by Boards of Canada like never before.

Mabus is a fan-made visual listening room created around the scale, texture, mystery, and unease of Inferno. Connect Apple Music, press play, and let the album unfold inside a full-screen stream of atmospheric moving images.

Space, light, weather, coastlines, human movement, and microscopic life drift into one another as clips and themed collections shuffle without immediate repeats. Silent visual layers add flashes of texture and chance, giving every visit its own rhythm while leaving the music itself untouched.

BUILT FOR INFERNO

Enter the room with the complete album, browse its track list, choose any song, and control playback without leaving the experience. Artwork, track information, and playback are provided directly by Apple Music.

EXPLORE MORE

Inferno is at the heart of Mabus, but the room also supports four earlier Boards of Canada albums:

• Tomorrow’s Harvest
• The Campfire Headphase
• Geogaddi
• Music Has the Right to Children

A VISUALIZER OF ITS OWN

The visualizer can become a silent, standalone space, automatically shuffling locally stored videos and collections without repeats. If the network disappears, a dedicated offline collection keeps the room alive and Mabus reconnects automatically when service returns.

DESIGNED TO DISAPPEAR

Dismiss the player panel for an unobstructed view, then tap or click to bring the controls back. Pause or resume the visuals independently of the music while standard playback controls remain close at hand.

MADE FOR APPLE PLATFORMS

Enjoy native layouts and controls on iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple TV, and Apple Vision Pro. Mabus supports Dynamic Type, VoiceOver, Increased Contrast, Reduce Transparency, Reduce Motion, and Dim Flashing Lights.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN

Mabus does not collect, track, sell, or share personal data. Your album selection stays on your device. Mabus does not read your Apple Music library, playlists, favorites, or listening history, and it does not download, record, export, or share Apple Music audio.

Apple Music playback requires authorization, an active Apple Music subscription, an internet connection, and catalog availability in your region. The standalone visualizer does not require an Apple Music subscription.

Mabus is an independent, fan-made experience and is not affiliated with or endorsed by Boards of Canada, Warp Records, or Apple.
