I definately see differences between those 2 albums. Someone here said that MHTRTC is like a good dream and Geogaddi is like a nightmare. I find Geogaddi darker and more sinister than MHTRTC.

I dislike BOC for some reason.
It seems seperated from the rest of the impressive electronic artists. I just don't like them. Dunno, maybe I'll give them another go, someday.

Geogaddi, less repetetive, more lovely intervals, Satanic undertones, more 'fuller' songs, Dawn Chorus.
Toejam: You're on the right track, stay focused.

MHTRTC is a ray of light, as opposed to the dark and solitaire Geogaddi. Although I cannot straighten out which one I like best, because it all depends on the mood I'm in.
I read somewhere that Geogaddi evokes childhood, and in many ways I'll have to agree with that, not sure why.. Maybe I'm easily influenced by other peoples opinions..
Conclusion: it all depends on the mood I'm in - But I tend to be more in the "MHTRTC-ray-of-light-kinda-mood" rather than the "dark-solitaire-Geogaddi-mood".
Ah hell, I like'em both.

Geogaddi because its full of beautifully created tracks with dark textures and tone.They feel a lot fuller in contrast with the empty cold tracks of MHTRTC.
Geogaddi has tracks which stay etched in your mind whereas MHTRTC tracks are failed to remember.
IMHO

MHTRTC has potential tracks with ideas but BoC didn't seem to complete these ideas....I see MHTRTC as a plan/rough sketch and Geogaddi as the complete works.

Yes I'm not saying its a terrible album infact its quite the opposite (and it does have its warm moments),but stand MHTRTC next to GeoGaddi and theres no competition.

I don't compare art.. I mean, the artist intended it to be what it is and that's what it is.
I mean, I'd hate someone to look at my painting and be like "oh the other one was better"... I mean.. they're two totally different things and shouldn't be compared to one another.

indeed they are two different pieces, but they do also originate from the same source, and therefore it's natural to try and compare the pieces against each other. For what reason, I do not know.
You need to measure the new peace up against an older piece to find some sort of symbiosis between the two, maybe.

I find that MHTRTC sparse and repetitive in contrast to Geogaddi. Doesn't mean that MHRTC is of lesser quality though. Less can be more.

Thats what we should do,not compare but thats how it works.People are biased to their opinions and compare previous works.
As an artist (of any sort) you've got to "out do yourself" from your last work,its always got to be better.

I slightly prefer geogaddi... but must agree both albums are similar in many ways.
The mood on geogaddi is darker though, and i think they just got better at what they do. The melodies are richer, and the songs deeper and more detailed on geogaddi.
mhtrtc will always have a special place in my heart though :-)

you have to compare an artists work to their previous efforts. by doing this you become more aware of the artists pro/regression and the contrast offers an insight into the artist behind the art. compare the intricate, acoustic prepared piano pieces of afx's work to his work as caustic window.. or his more basic earlier work... comparison also enables one to trace the similarities in their creative cache. if there is a certain thread throughout their entire career, like for example a similarity in the construction of melody, etc etc you're able to see that which defines and separates the particular artist from others .. and if that consistency doesnt show up in certain works, you can chalk that up to a miscalculation, pandering etc. blah blah blah.. it's rediculous for a fan to not analyze the development (or the stagnation, which may or may not lose many fans) of the artists they admire

Yes! I completely agree. I wouldn't go as far as to say you have to compare an artists work, but i definitly think it makes you enjoy their work more.

i think there was a reason geogaddi and mhtrtc were seperate albums.....so trying to find the superior and finding faults in the inferior makes listening to music unenjoyable, it's a constant judgement exposed on the music, when you shouldn't judge it, you should just accept it for what it is.
the fact that mhtrtc comes across as the lighter album, and geogaddi as the darker is good, since each album has a relative effect on the other and how people perceive it.

i see mhtrtc as colder, geogaddi doesnt send me that image at all, seems happier(1969 in the sunshine). mhhtrtc is a winter-esque album while geogaddi is something completely different. i understand the comparisons most of you are making, the tracks are made in very similar style but the textures\sounds on both the albums give a different feeling...at least to me.

For me, part of the problem with Geogaddi is it's too polished. They had more money or better equipment or something, and it doesn't sound like they're locked in mortal combat with their source material (samples and textures and shit).
Does that make any sense? Somehow mhtrtc and earlier work is more 'authentic" because it's more primitive and somehow closer to the kinds of feelings and impressions I associate with BoC - tape decay, faded memories, fleeting images.

mhtrtc has is way more summery than geogaddi, the melodies on tracks like roygbiv are way lighter and aquarius is just so a summer tune!
I find geogaddi really dark, heavy and claustrophobic, music is math has a really frosty melodys.

i cant compare them, MHTRTC is very special because it was the first record that i heard from Boc and the style "in that time" was so unique/new/warm.
if geogaddi was released first, i guess that geogaddi gave me the same feeling, what MHTRTC does now :$
