I can remember when it first came out, everyone was like "this is fucking brilliant!!!" - me included - and i thought it would never leave my cd player. and i thought it was better than MHTRTC.
But since, it has been living a life down the side of my CD rack, often being ignored for MHTRTC.
opinions? how much have u honestly listened to it in the last 2 weeks?

I ripped the best tracks off geogaddi and mhtrtc and put them on one cdr, needless to say there are about 4 geogaddi tracks and the rest are off mhtrtc.

haha! I bought it 2 weeks ago... it's still fresh! I've listened to it 9/10 times. That's a lot,because I spend most of my time on my comp.(then I listen to mp3's) or not home.

Geogaddi for me isn't to great anymore. I still love Gyroscope though. Best track on there IMO. MHTRTC is so much better. More tracks with drums. Geo didn't have that many.

i listen to it occasionally,
some of the beats in the songs destroy them. if they had a better clue on drums than those songs would have a much stronger effect. i dig their melodies but the beats are horrible.

I got both of those cd's just recently, and I'm fairly certain that I like Geogaddi better as a whole, but I think my favorite track off either one is Roygbiv..

Can you judge if something stands the test of time in a few months? Shouldn´t we come back to this topic in ten years (or more)?

It certainly isn't on the level of Music has the Right to Children... I listen to that a lot more than Geogaddi.
But Geogaddi has three tracks that are just mindblowing, to me... 1969, Music is Math, and Dawn Chorus. I want them to keep it simple and straightforward, and they do that in these three tracks.

I would agree with Phecks...It is DEFINATELY NOT MHTRTC...but its DAMN good....and DAMN close
"Music has the right...." is on its OWN LEVEL...by itself...

Yeah, let's all bookmark this topic and come back in 2012. Have a big Geogaddi reunion! I'll be 29, I wonder what music I'll be into by then...

Its a tough call saying what IDM or ANY music will sound like in 60 years....Hell after CONFIELD and what Ae have done....It has ALL been punched up to a NEW level...a NEW gauntlet was thrown....There is NO telling what will come next.....

He´ll probably still be making drill´n´bass just worse than the stuff he´s been doing in the last 7 years.

He'll move on to doing Erik Satie ripoffs exclusively, I bet. I'd really like to travel a hundred years in the future, see what music will be like... what else is there to be done that hasn't been done yet?

I sort of have to be in the mood for it, or get in the mood. it's pretty intense. much better than mhtrtc, though. I don't necessarily judge music by how often I listen to it.

yeah, first when I bought Geogaddi I loved it so much, more then anything in my collection... that was half because it was new, and fresh... now though, it's still up there, and is a damn fine album... it's not quite as good as MHTRTC, but it's pretty damn close!!!

Geogaddi is THE summer album to listen to when you're walking outside or driving w/ the windows down, or hanging out at the beach. The synths in the tracks are like musical rays of sunlight. I think it's at least on par with MHTRTC (which i just officially bought, so that's been in my CD player much more than geogaddi lately).
