yes, it's empty.
the vinyl version of geogaddi has an engraved picture of a family on it. on the cd version there's just silence. some say it's there just to make the duration of the album exactly 66:06.

But that's crap, cause the number 6606 isn't anything!
Nice avatar by the way, I'm a pretty big Chris Morris fan.

Isn't a magic window a very high frequency. I thought the track would contain high frequencies but a cd could not carry anything so high.
Then i found out why that tracks there when i saw the total cd length.I thought my cd player was possessed.

I like Geogaddi. I don't like the following about boards of canada.
01: the belief that their style is completely original 02: the fact that their pre-IABPOITC releases consist mostly of songs that wound up on so much--there's a lot of overlap.
03: The tracks themselves kinda lack a little bit. MHTRTC has it's moments, definitely, but if you're a BOC fan, you don't even need to bother with anything but MHTRTC, Geogaddi, and In a beautiful place...
04: Their sound doesn't really change over time. Look at Aphex, Autechre, Squarepusher, The Beatles, anyone, and their sound changes as they get older--they're constantly switching things up. BOC tends to stay in this comfortable zone of acceptability--which isn't bad, i'd rather they do that than turn out some crappy tracks just for sake of doing something different, but i just feel they don't have the ability to step outside the box very much.

the point is the end result. for instance, a sculpture made of wax that looks like wood is still wax. so if a song sounds like nothing, even if it's low or high frequencies, it's still nothing. Search for john cage connection in 4:44--BOC pretty much ripped off his idea. :|

It's just a gag. Trying to fuck with our heads. There are no audio signals recorded on the track.

in reply to "jf jasson d" etc: isn't it funny how whenever some troll appears who is slating BOC, they only ever have a few points to their name on this board.
this is an obvious recurring pattern on here. and if i'm not mistaken, phob or some other moderator could probably reveal some interesting results regarding the IP address of this person.
there's no mistaking the fact that a certain individual has a 'sour-grapes' hate mission going on...
isn't that right jh? ;-)

thats what i was thinking just last night! my cheap cd changer is pretty loud when it changes CDs, so having magic window after Corsair gives me plenty of time to turn off the cd player or go back to earlier tracks before the calm mood set by Corsair (beautiful track) is ruined by "CLICK-BUZZZZZZ-CLICK-BEEP-CLICK"
