First I just wanna add that Andre Estermann - Balloon
has been sorely overlooked by me, and maybe others.

I don't think either of them really originated "this
style" ... maybe BoC? :P No, really, it would
probably be Herren, even back when he was playing
around with the Delarosa project, he had the hip-hoppy
idm-y post-rocky thing going on a few tracks.

I know I said something in my list about Uprock being
"too late" and that's why it was only a runners-up for
me; by that I didn't mean "Machine Drum did it first,"
I meant, "Machine Drum got to me and won my heart
first." Anyway, I just prefer Machine Drum's, er,
style, to that of Scott, though he's good at what he
does, too. Can't explain it. Something about Uprock
strikes me as somehow disconnected from my own
personal reality, whereas Machine Drum makes me think
of subways and spray paint... I guess I've just
listened to it a lot more.

Well, personally they/s/he/it just hits the same spot
for me that Gimmik does, although maybe a little
warmer. Pleasant electronics. I'd rank him after
Gimmik of the artists on Toytronic's roster. I
wouldn't particularly want to *hype* the act, but I do
enjoy it.
