The other Notwist albums that I know are "12" (the one before "Shrink") and "Neon Golden" (the latest one). Both are OK, but really the masterpiece there is "Shrink". You can try "Neon Golden", it's easy to find and got very good reviews overall, but listen beforehand as it might be disappointing. I agree with julien, just heard a couple of times "neon golden" and it is nice but disappointing compared to "shrink". "Shrink" was an amazing step forward for Notwist, and throughout every listenings it has grown on me as a masterpiece. Even years later it rules ! However, other bands sharing members with the Notwist are worth getting into like the Tied & Tickled Trio (more jazzy, try the latest "Electric Avenue Tapes" and work your way back if you like it) and Village of Savoonga (more "post-rock", start with "Score" and work your way back as well). TTT have a remix album as well, which would be the most IDM one I guess, but I haven't heard it. Tied and Tickled Trio are good, though in a similar vein I'd prefer Kammerflimmer Kollektif. On the TTT remix album the one by Christoph Kurtzmann is really superior best ::: philippe | 0000 \\\\.. \\\\ __ http://www.bip-hop.com _---| 0000 \\\\..\\\\ contemporary electronica challenging the ears and the mind
