Harthouse started moving into more downtempo/off the wall (for them) areas
a couple of years ago. Check out the stuff by Off and Gone, Soap and Alter
Ego, and also the Dark Hearts II comp. I'm sure there's more but I can't
remember it off-hand. Oh yeah, the second album by Der Dritte Raum is simply
outstanding idm-y/housey trance, light years ahead of his first effort.
I haven't heard the new Braincell, but it's funny that an album by Cari L.
should also be moving in this direction - his stuff is normally crisp and
trancey, i.e. normal Harthouse turf.
