Hi all, I just subscribed to the list and thought I'd introduce myself. I was encouraged to see you chattin it up about PE and Cube. Anyway, I just started getting into IDM and electronic music in general, and I was wondering if you folks could give me some recommendations beyond what I've been listening to, which is obvious stuff like AFX, Squarepusher, Mu-Ziq, Bogdan Raczynski, BOC, Black Dog/Plaid. I come from more of a punk/hardcore/metal background, so don't worry about my tastes, just tell me what you've been spinning that you think is pretty good/important, K? Thanks, -Matt

'Office Space' was great, BTW. 1. Carl Craig is god, and anything he does is stellar. Check out the Innerzone Orchestra album, his work under his own name, and Paperclip People. 2. Tatsuhiko Asano's 'Genny Haniver' on Geist. Put it on repeat, drink tawny port, and read(?) 'When I am King' by Demian5 at www.demian5.com. 3. Kid606's 'The Action Packed Mentalist brings you the Fucking Jams' on Violent Turd. Released in New Zealand to avoid being crucified by the RIAA and associated label jerks. High larryus. 4. You probably already know about the Boredoms. 5. Bisk's 'Moonstruck Parade' keeps getting better. 6. Miss Kittin & The Hacker do some decent work. 7. The Midwest Product album when it comes out. That's really all that's been floating my boat electronicwise for the past few months. Before that I was enjoying Spacer's latest album 'The Beamer' and Khan's 'No Comprendo' plus of course any and just about all by the following innoparticularorder: Spring Heel Jack - too smart to be drum and bass Kirlian - too good to be techno Si Begg - Look ma, I cross genre boundaries, no hands, tongue in cheek Detroit Grand Pubahs - funnier than DJ Assault Tosca - german chocolate ganja lounge Cristian Vogel - lives with insect robots Ken Ishii - japanese people make the best mass transit tunes Speedy J - lives in a metal pipe with his insect robots Savvas Ysatis - I dunno, sexy refridgerators maybe Electric Company - double-jointed noisyness Just a few suggestions.

Hmmm. I agree with virtually everything you say, except that I find this album snooooozzzze deluxe. Boring to the tenth. What's so good about it? Convince me, and I'll happily give it another try.
