I have Site Anubis and don't much care for it ... it's more abrasively
jazzy than most of his other work ... so I haven't picked up anything else
in the trilogy (Shiva Recoil? ...).  Surgery of Touch is quite unusual in
the other direction ... hot & hallucinatory middle-East-flavored dark
ambience, sort of like if Stalker were set in Egypt instead of Russia.

My current favorite Rapoon is 'Recurring (Dream Circle)', but that's liable
to change at any moment ...
