Geogaddi is the second studio album by Scottish electronic music duo Boards of Canada. It was originally released on 8 February 2002 in Japan by Vivid and in Europe ten days later by Warp Records.^[2] It was recorded between 1999 and 2001 at Hexagon Sun, their Pentland Hills studio. The album is intended to be darker in tone than their debut studio album Music Has the Right to Children, released in 1998. The album contains references to the Branch Davidians and numerology throughout its composition.

Geogaddi received critical acclaim upon release, in addition to being acclaimed by several publications as one of the year's best albums. It was listed by music website Pitchfork as one of the best intelligent dance music albums of all time.
