Don't forget Source Direct - The Crane, Snake Style and Stonekiller are masterpieces of spooky & creepy d'n'b. Also Feel My Dreams which they did in their Mirage guise. All only on 12" vinyl, but they seem to have signed to Virgin, so maybe there will be an album on CD soon. Trainspotter alert: the new 12", Stonekiller, has a very obvious (and well placed) Aphex Twin sample (something from SAW II)
