I meant to respond to this as well. I have three IDM-ish albums as =
Shalmaneser:

And four recent electroacoustic/dark-ambient-or-so-people-tell-me albums =
under my own name and as a duo (Usufruct) with flutist/singer/composer =
Polly Moller Springhorn:

https://vauxflores.com/vf-industrial/windfall/
https://auralfilms.bandcamp.com/album/kilgrimal
https://vauxflores.com/vf-industrial/the-difficult-third-wish/

I do pretty much everything in SuperCollider except for acoustic =
instruments (bass, recorder, dulcimer).

Also a bunch of electronic and non-electronic music going back to the =
Eighties:

great not because of the gear, but in spite of it.

Yamaha MOX8 and AN1x (nice virtual analog) and EX-5 (the internal VL =
synth is pretty unique).
