Okie dokie, I'll keep my list short 'cause I could go on forever and I
really should be working right now. :)
Boards of Canada - Happy Cycling - Makes me feel all warm and fuzzy
inside, great outro track to a great album.
Squarepusher - Tundra - My first exposure to Tom Jenkinson, and, though
Journey to Reedham/My Red Hot Car/Beep Street/etc... are way way way up
on my list, this is still my favorite squarepusher track
Autechre - Eggshell/Autiche - I put these in the same line 'cause
they're both off the same album and I usually listen to one when I
listen to the other. Once again, lots of warm fuzzies.
Funkstorung - Last track on "Additional Productions" that I can't
remember the name of right now - Same as the Happy Cycling, great outro
and it's even on a remix album which makes it all the more impressive.
Lego Feet - First song off the EP - Mmm crunchy happiness that tempts me
to pay $400 for the EP off eBay. ;)
Lexaunculpt - Live Webcast, part 2 - IDM remix of the metroid theme.
Yum.
Aphex Twin - Boy/Girl Song - Beep.
