A thread for all the best song changes.

My favourites would have to be Ready Let's Go - Music is Math
Gyroscope - Dandelion (most of geogaddi is pretty good here, actually - I think that's partly what makes it such a fine album, rather than more a collection of songs)
Olson - Pete Standing Alone
AND
Original Nlogax - Turquoise Hexagon Sun. (Absolute win.)

I love Olson-Pete Standing Alone, whenever I hear the end note of Olson I expect to hear that 5th of Pete.

Skimming Stones > Sixtyniner and Carcan > Nlogax are awesome; I notice the transitions on BOC Maxima more than usual cause those songs kinda overlap in some spots.


But my favorite is probably You Could Feel The Sky > Corsair. There's silence between the tracks, but the feel of the YCFTS followed up by Corsair's is pretty powerful.

This is a very very good one. It's exactly as BoC describes, like a light at the end of a tunnel coming out of a twisted journey or something. YCFTS being the best representation of the Geogaddi journey. It's just so chalked full of goodies and hidden elements.
