I have a 2cd which I think is the one you are talking about, called 'Booming on Pluto: Electro for Droids'. it has loads of classics eg Planet Rock, Time Space Transmat, Dead Cities, Watermelon Man and loads of other good stuff. it is the 3rd in a series compiled by David Toop, the first two being Ocean of Sound, and Ocean of Sound 2: Crooning on Venus. I don't know about the second, but the first is amazing - featuring Debussy, Miles Davis, John Cage, Aphex Twin, Beach boys, King Tubby....... - it's like listening to the perfect John Peel show. And it has the awesome Boat Woman Song, truncated i think, but spinechilling nevertheless I would give tracklistings, but I have had to abandon a lot of my Cds several thousand miles away (sob) mike
