This is not a question of wich album is better.....ok, fuck it u can answer that too (I think Drukqs is the better one) but wich album SOLD MORE???? How much did both these releases sell? My guess is Drukqs.... 123000 copies and Geogaddi 115000 copies ;) Have a guess. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I don't know where to start, but I'd listen to Drukqs anyday before Geogaddi. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
They'll have sold half that guess arch. |

geogaddi |

|
|

|
|
If that!!!! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
I think both albums have passed 100.000 Music Has the Right, and RDJ album sold over 100.000 |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I heard 90.000 of Druqs a few months ago |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
No chance, both the albums you said have been out for over 5/6 years. It's nearer 50, 000 and that's being very generous. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
oh shit, yeah its more like 50.000 me think. I mean Killarmy sold like 50000 and they are a pretty big hip hop group. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
But I heard that Jegas first album easily sold 75000 copies, but that was years ago, its harder to sell now adays with mp3s and stuff like that. |
||||||||
|

|
|
you're right, the good news is, this sort of music doesn't have a shelf life as short as some other types of music, |
||||||||

|
100,000 copies of geogaddi? AAAAAAAAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHA, yeah I hear BoC are cruising the Scottish highlands in Bentleys and sipping L'eau de quille for $5000 a bottle while swedish virgins trim their cuticles. |

(drukqs) What? I didn't say anything... what the hell are you looking at? *leaves* |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
geogaddi is better by far, imo. last week I sat in the woods and listened to all of geogaddi... it was amazing... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
nope. took a walk today with Drukqs on my headphones. DRUKQS!DRUKQS!DRUKQS! Geogaddi is good though. Made me appreciate the Boards properly. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Easily Geogaddi for me... it's one of the most beautiful albums I've ever heard... it's fantastic... You know, I love Drukqs, but it just doesn't compare with Geogaddi imo... Geogaddi flows so nicely, and I can sit down and listen to the whole album over and over, whereas Drukqs I can sit and listen, but usually to one specific tracks at a time, not the whole thing... Geogaddi is my friend!!! :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
geogaddi is way better |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
drukqs easily. both suffer from having too many tracks, and i think geogaddi sold more, (something like 80 to 90,000), but drukqs is just better. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
and exactly where are you getting those numbers? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
well i remember reading an article about the year in music and how electronic music wasn't selling particularly well. I think it mentioned geogaddi being the most anticipated and largest selling release of the year (in electronic music), and i'm pretty sure the numbers were close to the ones i've listed. if not, my mistake. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Your answer made me chuckle and spill wine through my nose! nice one Tao |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I think DrukQs is the better one, I like alot . imo Geogaddi is not very experimental and thats the stuff i like, becouse of that i prefer the braindance DrukQs style in my brain |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
hey how about your cool experience??? it sounds nice!!! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Even though I love Geogaddi, if I had to choose I'd say Drukqs for sure :) I have no idea which one sold more. Maybe Drukqs because Aphex Twin is more known then Boards of Canada? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I think Geogaddi probably sold more because BoC appeal to the hippy/stoner ethos as well as the electronic music listener. People who own Bob Marley and the Dead ... if they have an electronic album ... it's BoC. Drukqs is clearly more interesting and overall a better album -- but that's only because I consider BoC a big bore. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I prefer drukqs as arecord,geogaddi is good but i'm not very impressed about it,maybe i have to listen to it more... as far as sales for drukqs you have to consider that it' s a double album so even if it sold 50000 is like as if had sold 100000.geogaddi i don't know but i think that both boc&rdj have no problem of money |
||||||||
|

|
I haven't heard geogaddi yet, but I really really love druqks so I dont know.... I will check out geogaddi soon tho! :) |

someone posted a Plaid interview awhile ago. I would consider them quite big in the elecronic music scene as they toured with Bjork etc... in the interview they say its hilarious how everyone thinks they're rich. They dont own their homes and they said they cant afford cars. I also read an interview with boc in which they said its funny how many people think theyre well off. |

Voices Music Entertainment, wich is the nordic WARP distributor told my radiostation that Music Has the right sold over 100.000, and there has been major hypes 'round Geogaddi and Drukqs. There has been many topics like this where some people have dropped some numbers. I guess Phobia (where has he been lately?) and Joyrex has some info? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
they don't sell well cos people don't buy them, they download it or get copies from friends |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah, I entered the woods when the sun was beginning to set, and about halfway through the album, the fireflies were just beginning to flash... It was incredible, especially because I smoked a rather large bowl of dro before I left... :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|

i have listened to drukqs a hell of alot more than geogaddi, but MHTRTC is one of my fave albums, and i listen to it almost constantly, i think this album stopped geogaddi being an amazing follow up, and justa good one instead. and i have no doubt aphex sold more, he has more range of audience than BoC right now. and the hype drukqs was sold to the public compared to geogaddi is almost unbelieveble really |
||||||||
|

|
|
if you are comparing content.. AHHAHHHAHHAHH AhAh AHHAH what a silly question.. Sales wise Geogaddi might eventually overtake it.. |

|
geogaddi!! sunshine recorder does it every time!! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
both even in my mind |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Drukqs is fantastic, but I haven't heard Geogaddi out yet. Which one sold more? Not a bloody clue! :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
that is a stupid question. (drukqs) |

"I also read an interview with boc in which they said its funny how many people think theyre well off." Now we know why they let Kid for Today be used for that BMW ad! |
