Amon Tobin did a rabid 5/4 cut on Permutation, "Sordid." Blame's "360
Click" is in 7/8, and then there's Laika (who don't really fall into this
group of musicians)--they're infamous for going against 4/4.
As for Autechre, they experimented with "no repetitive beats" on "Flutter"
in 1994 as a means of protest against the CJB. Weird fun shit that
actually mixed well into Warp's "Blech" comp.
They're rare, but not impossible to find. The further people dig into jazz
roots, the more you'll begin to see it on the scene.
