i cant seem to listen to geogaddi without going back to the
day i got it, which was also my 25th b-day and i was in nyc
on vacation with some really old close friends...all in all
truely happy and that album found a way to take me there
every time it goes in the cd player....timeless indeed.

i can't listen to geogaddi without remembering last winter
and how completely fucking depressing and weird it was at
mount royal college.

I'll never forget the first time i heard Kaini Industries,
it blew my mind. It was so beautiful.

The first Boards of Canada i ever heard was 'In a beautiful
place out in the country' live. I instantly fell in love
with it, i've never had so many shivers up my spine when the
vocals came in.

when music attaches itself to a time period in your life,
that's when it becomes amazing...

Think that link's right - They talk quite a bit about how
they get that sound there...

I think they're the best thing on Warp by far.

BoC>Warp

Actually they're my favorite ppl currently making music
fullstop - Totally get that nostalgic thing too.

yeah, I gotta say AFX is the best, sense he introduced me to
the sound that we all love.

But BOC is such a rad band, i seriously love those dudes.

Music has a right.. did more for me than Geogaddi. Arovane
who use similar sounds does a better overall job i found.

So I'm on this BoC web site and I read this:

"Another set of fake MP3s that went around were called
"nskino", "gridlock", "lavender trapezoids", "golden
hinterland", "rhomboid" and maybe some more. I mention these
only in the hope that anyone still sharing these as BoC
files will stop doing so, and so reduce the confusion a
bit"

I'm actually really into some of those "fake" tracks...
anyone know who they're by???

I first heard geogaddi midway through my spring semester of
freshman year at college, and it was like a ray of sunshine
that echoed the blooming of the flowers and trees and the
loss of the harsh cold winter that had preceded it.
