Try Thomas Brinkmann "Studio 1 Variationnen" on Profan. Supposedly these
are remixes of some Mike Ink stuff which I haven't heard, so I don't know
how things were transformed. Anyway, there's very little reverb, a very
tight sound but you can easily get lost in it due to the slowly shifting
repetitions, rhythms going out of phase, stereo patterns etc.
