Listened to Music Has The Right To Children and Geogaddi last night and I told myself to tell yall this: They're still great. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I've only listened to geogaddi a few times, while I almost destroyed MHTRTC because I listened to it so much. geogaddi doesn't do much for me. a poor companion to the great MHTRTC. |

Check out the big brains on Brad! this message board goes round in circles |

geogaddi is weak overall but has some very nice points. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

mhartc has been my favorite record for a while. i found geogaddi virtually unlistenable for the longest time, but this past year i find myself listening to it more and more. it suffers from a poor ordering of tracks and several throwaway tracks, but -- as the curbcreeper said -- it has some great moments. |

Haha, I see what you're trying to do here. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
no you don't |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Haha, I see what you're trying to do by saying that. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
what? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yep, they are!!! Boards of canada i still think are the best electronica artists!!! |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
big surprise to see qrter like boc. i'd honestly never think that. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
Geogaddi is a piss puddle. MHTRTC is excellent. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i'm curious to see what they will come up with.... i think i see what dog_belch is trying to do. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I like geogaddi a lot more. And also, i can see this degenerating into a "WHAT@S YOUR FAVOURIIIITE BOC ALBUM WTF LOL" thread very rapidly. And i am only adding to the problem. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Am I the only person to think Geogaddi isn't all that different to MHTRTC and I don't know why people dislike it so. It's like MHTRTC II, and there's nothing wrong with that. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I think they compliment each other very well! i think the only difference was the texture. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
MHTRTC is kinda cold for me...dunno,but i like GEO better than it. and it's also a shame that ppl only talk about those two albums. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
that's kind of the point. MHTRTC was a great record. for years we don't hear anything coming from the BoC camp except "In a beautiful place etc." EP. for years people are wondering what they'll come up with. and what do they come up with? a weak copy of MHTRTC. oh great. thanks. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I think it was more of an extension of music has the right. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
agreed. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Hmmm, well I like pretty much everything they've done, i like all the early eps, MHTRTC is lovley, Geogaddi is like it's weird cousin but still on the same track. But I like the track Zoetrope as well so that puts me in a camp of about 1. I don't know, I don't mind them taking ages and then coming up with the same thing, what else are they going to do, Grime? BOC, I say, keep being BOC. |

Here, here!!! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
hear, hear. not here, here. it even makes more sense. :P |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
they could try evolving musically, trying out new things, exploring. I'm not into this music thing just to hear groups rehashing the same stuff over and over. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Ah the thing is... They don't, there is always something new in every subsequent release. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
geogaddi is quite .... wow. Music has the right, well, isn't complicated enuff. I enjoy the simplicity, but man ... too many shadows in geogaddi ;) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
to my ears they've stopped evolving. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

Hmmmmmmmmmmmm, i know what you mean, but i don't like the idea of junking something because it works. I mean, some people make a career out of the same thing, but BOC do one properly released album and everyone aparently likes it but wants them to change. Ambient music evolved from the 70s (with roots doubtless in all sorts of sonic pioneers before) to today... I don't know what I am on about, but Eno produced lots of albums which are kind of similar sounding but all fabulous, why can't BOC do MHTRTC IV and V, work through it over time, don't expect the quantum leap album after album. There's only one chap who can do that and it's Dicky D Jamms. I LOVE HIM. |

Two words that proves you wrong about mhtrtc being simple: Telephasic workshop |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ok well that wasn't the best thing to say. i still don't understan how there has to be a "winner" what about the next album going to pittyyourself debating which one is better, then? don't know how you can diss geogaddi, with dawn chorus |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
You obviously don't listen properly... : ) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
"going to pittyyourself debating which one is better, then? " - seriously, what fucking language are you attempting to speak? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Sorry i am being incredibly anal about things tonight! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

I'm surprised at these reponses. Geogaddi is chock full of insane of amounts of detail. The background atmospheres are amazingly crafted, and the melodies are great as usual. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
;p :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yes i know, wonderful isn't it!!! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
:) !!!! |
||||||||

|
|||||||||

boc can continue to produce the same variation on the same formula until they die, because they're awesome. anyway, they're just perfecting their music, and i don't agree with people who act like you have to do something totally new and different everytime out. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yet you are battling SAW2 tracks in my other thread??????? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
don't know how you can diss geogaddi, with dawn chorus I like Geogaddi quite a bit.. however I find it interesting that lots of BoC fans latch onto 'Julie and Candy' and 'Dawn Chorus' as their favorite tracks. It's all subjective I know, but honestly from day one these were my least favorite tracks on the album. The production on the latter irritates me. I'm not too fond of '1969' any more either. On the flip side, tracks like 'sunshine recorder' and 'gyroscope' are beautiful and innovative.. among their best. |

geogaddi is good, but mhtrtc is better. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Geogaddi <3 Music Has The Right to Childeren is okay I think, didn't used to like it at all, probably because I heard Geogaddi first. I don't get how people can love this and absolutely hate Geogaddi, it's more of the same, but it's still great stuff. Unlistenable? What??? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yeah, what's gonna happen when/if the next album comes out? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
|
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Dann Chorus...? I don't know if they'll ever be able to top Music is Math. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
THEY'RE ALL GOOD, OK ?!?! OK !?!??! CAN WE AGREE ON THAT?! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yes! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it's all subjective anyways... who cares what other think, just like whatever you like... I like both albums, but Hi Scores is the best... :P |
