I'm really enjoying the Pluramon album on Mille Plateaux "Render Bandit", and was wondering if there were other albums in a similar style which I should check out. What I particularly enjoy is the use of guitars and kit drumming as a source of sounds to be manipulated (it's very much "standard" IDM in all respects other than this, IMO). I do love the intricacy of the processing, and the way a lot of it juggles that with what sound to my ears like some brilliantly exploited accidents. For that matter, I'm enjoying the very different 'Highways over Gardens' compilation on Carpet Bomb for similar reasons, at least with respect to the use of guitars in a similar way to the way synths are used by most IDMers. Any recommends? tia, Michael np. 'Disco love' - Ian Pooley (this guy has been on Mille Plateaux? :) ____________________________________________ "Also, he has automatic evasion devices" http://www.vuw.ac.nz/~michael/jj.html
