Id like to second the below recomendation of the Zooid album (on Toast & Jam).
really nice stuff. great combo of guitar noodling (in a good way, perhaps
*slighlty* hinting at a minuitive Dif Juz)) and electronics. a nice fresh
breeze of melancholy melodic ambientishness with occasional beats. i also
must recommend another release on Toast & Jam by the group Chimchim called
_at a childlike speed vol. 1_.
Its like esplendorgeometrico-ized retro skinny puppy put through an idm
grinder. :)
neat dark stuff :)
looking forward to T & J's next releases :)

Short note to all who didn't get Toast & Jam 001 - Zooid's
_sleep-theory_: highly pleasant music. At parts laid back and at parts
more aggressive. 7 tracks of melody. Reminds me of a more placid
Labradford on the 1st three tracks but with foreboding stuff (foreboding
like right before a hurricane hits-sorta like the quiet before the storm)
on the remixes 4-6. Track 7 is a real humdinger of a late-night
while-you-try-to sleep smile inducer. If it were a vegetable, you'd
swear it's a baked potato. Mushy, warm, and a comforting consistency.
With surprising humorous wrinkles.
