funky, weird instrumentation.

try:
Spymania Label (Squarepusher, Wafta, Paddington Breaks etc.)
I haven't heard the dial ep yet, so i can't comment on that. But the rest of
the stuff is phat.

Microstudio (Cubensis 12" on Carpet Bomb)
The BEST 12" of the year, IMHO. Look for more carpet bomb stuff soon
http://home.earthlink.net/~tripform/ms/index.html (if you got shockwave)
Kundalini (independent, but kewl)
can't make a judgement, as my 14.4 is not the best for shockwave, but what i
heard was good
http://www.nyu.edu/pages/advocacy/officers/raffel/CDPlayer.htm (more
shockwave)
another artist whose been compared to Squarepusher is Jimpster. He's got a
new comp. of his last 3 12" out domes-- er... in the US called "martian arts"
on instinct.
And there's a compilation on the ill label called "spunk jazz" coming out
soon. As well as a comp. on Mike Paradinas' Planet Mu label currently
untitled. Bovinyl Records and Animals on Wheels supposedly also fit into that
catagory, though I haven't heard any of that, but our resident
spymania/planet mu connection, Kung Funk (aka, Horse Operater, another artist
in that genre) seems to dislike it.
Some more well known "drill n' bass" includes AFX's Hangable Auto Bulb EP's
and his remix of Wagon Christ's "Spotlight" (on "Redone"). Luke Vibert's Plug
stuff.
Mu-Ziq's Urmur Bile EP's and Lunatic Harness. The Advangardism comp. on
Law & Auder. Anything I'm forgeting??
mult.
