I'm a big fan of the early experimental electronic sound/BBC Radiophonic Workshop sound, ala Boards of Canada, Add N to X, Broadcast, and at times, Stereolab. Any suggestions on other current music in this vein? (BTW, I have to put in the highest recommendations for Raymond Scott's recently repressed "Soothing Sounds for Baby" 3-album collection. Sublime ambient bliss in the style of SAW2, and clacking beats ('Toy Typewriter' on volume 2) that outdoes Ae and AFX 35 years prior. And unlike AFX, yes, he did build his own synths.) nick
