Call me oldfashioned but i just adore the early Slowdive shoegazer stuff, ala
their first album Just For A Day or their EP Holding Our Breath...

yeah its not as electronic, but talk about blissful wonderful washes of
sound...!

ill never forget seeing them live years back in Kansas City's now defunkt club
The Shadow.  Just wave after wave of LOUD all encompasing washes of sound.
Buried amidst the bliss were the beautiful unintelligible vocals and submerged
drums. I stood and swayed with my jaw dropped the whole time :)

and then a year later i for some insane reason traded off Just For A Day! Miss
it much now, so if anyones got an unwanted copy, just send it this shoegazer's
way :)
