Hi Tinus.
The good thing about funckarma is that they kind of do thier own thing and nobody else creates music quite like them. Unlike most artists where you can usually name 3 or 4 more similar artists without much thinking, funckarma are a different story.
I can tell you however of other artists that i enjoy in the percussive & melodic side of IDM, namely MD (aka Kschzt), Brothomstates, Spark (except his new one), Proem, Sense, & the Download releases 'III' & 'Effector'.
Hope this helps,
Portis

Hi Portis,
I am a huge fan of the Funckarma Bros (and I go to every concert in Holland
they give, recently saw them as Cane).
Do you by now know some similar stuff by other artists?
Thanx,
Tinus.

My favourite Funckarma release is probably Part 4, if you don't have that
already. I don't know of any other music quite like Funckarma's.... so i
can't really give comparisons or suggestions. Their "Bourbon Sounds"
release is very interesting, more on the experimental-edged side, but it's
very thematic. I've always loved the Chunk EP which was released a few
years back (the first Funcken I heard). That's pretty tricky stuff too.
Another alias except Quench that they use is Cenik, which is more on the
busy bleepy sample driven tip.
Do yourself a favour and try to track down some of their compilation
appearances, namely on the Perspective Fragments Volume One release on
U-Cover and Men With Boxes compilation on DUB. They have a couple of great
contributions on those discs...

Yes, I saw this--quite exciting!
I've been meaning to post and ask for recommendations for other music
similar to Funckarma's Part 5 EP, which is one of my absolute favorite
releases of the last couple years in any genre. Suggestions? Either
other Funckarma stuff (although I have quite a lot of their proper
releases, excluding several compilation tracks and remixes) or other
like-minded artists.
