I really don't think you can go wrong with any of them, but if I had to
recommend any, I'd say check out the Monolake. I'm also a huge fan of the
Vainqueur, but that record's very minimal and droning -- many songs dismiss
the need for beats. The Matrix and Fluxion records have a nice assortment
of tracks.
I still think the earlier artists on the label -- monolake, vainqueur,
substance, porter ricks, various artists -- tended to make the more
experimental/uncanny sounds. After that you get the Vladislave Delay-style
stuff -- more clicky and beat-driven. The Hallucinator stuff has some great
moments and also some lackluster tracks; I'd check that one out too.
