As far as I know, Paul frankland has four albums to his credit:
1. Woob (emit 1194) - the classic album everyone must own
2. Journeyman - Mama 6 (ntone 2) - very similar to the beaty barts on woob
3. Woob2 (emit 4495) - not as good as the first, but still really good
4. Journeyman - National Hijinx (ntone 24) - dope. same vein as the new
neotropic. I Even reviewed it for Fix Magazine awhile back:

Journeyman - National Hijinx - Ntone/Ninja Tune
Journeyman's Paul Frankland has two distinct musical personalities. Paul
records ambient for emit recordings under the name Woob, and explores his
more beat-driven works as Journeyman. Paul's sound is deep, thick and
atmospheric. No matter what genre he attempts, you can tell it's his by
the surreal sound that permeates the album.
His second Album, "National Hijinx", is filled with thick deep breaks and
high-speed jungle, while still maintaining a Dali-esque quality. The title
tracks, "National Hijinx" and "National Hijinx Part 2" start the album off
with atmospheric breakbeats and thick swirling Chowderhead dub. Layered
over the top are plenty of retro movie samples and generous usage of delay
pedals. "Rusty Beats" and "Sloath" are faster jungle pieces, perfect for
night driving. "Spy" is an ambient waltz, mysteriously laden with operatic
vocals. The eerie and unsettling "50cc" and "Sonny" are reminiscent of the
first Woob release, 1194. This is music that should be listened to at
night, preferably in the dark. Just when you think Paul has gone too far
out there, "Biscuits" brings you back with it's gentle acoustic guitars
and laid back groove.
