Aside from the odd waltz or shuffle beat, I think the main strayings I've heard are by Bedouin Ascent. Most of the stuff I've heard by him is not in 4. The only straying from 4 I've heard by Ae is '777' off the self-titled album. Lo, it appears to be in 7. I think their remix of Lamb's 'Gold' might be considered 6/4 as well, depending on how you want to count it. There's bound to be more, even ignoring skittery time-signature-irrelevant stuff like Oval.
