Well, lessee....

GYBE: "Lift Yr. Skinny Fists etc". This keeps getting grabbed onto and listened to in its wholeness on the MP3 automotive spinnytronics this past week.

New Order: "Low Life". Well, I like it. More filled-out than "Power, Corruption and Lies", but many of the same or similar ideas.

Oliveros/Dempster/Panaiotis: "Deep Listening". Technically, the Deep Listening Band's first joynt. Droning subterranean atmospherics. Hypnotic, dreamy, shoegazy...but pretty much totally acoustic, interestingly. Recorded in a huge underground reservoir in Washington State.

Genioh Yamashirogumi: "'Akira' Soundtrack". Yeah, baybee! Gamelan meets choir meets electronics meets Noh theatre meets futurism to the max! Mindblowing on many fronts.

Kraftwerk: "Ralf und Florian". An oldie but a goodie. That tiki-meets-Rheingau fun of "Ananas Symphonie" is still a fascinating balance of cheese and space and lounge and kosmische...music for mai-tais while in orbit...

And more besides...
