I have fat cat compilation CD called Across Uneven Terrain, which presents many styles of fat cat, but I don't necessary have to like all those styles (post-rock = the most boring music style/genre ever???) Some tracks I liked were: PROCESS - Calene -sound like: Chain Reaction + Seefeel BJÖRK Mit FUNKSTÖRUNG - All Is Full Of Love (Secondotted) -the better one of All is full of love remixes -another nice Autec... sorry Funkstörung track :) VARIOUS ARTISTS - 8.5 -sounds like err... Various Artists -too short VARIOUS ARTISTS - 9 (AUTECHRE remix) -sounds nothing like autechre has done before, the best track on comp -hard banging 4/4 techno
