couldn't agree more about Tone Casualties.  Was really supprised by this
label.  Excellent stuff in the idm/experimental/ambient way.

Recommendations:

face: picture of the end - shimmering dark land scapes composed of beats
strange sounds and layering.  Paris is involved.


fibre: sub aquatirc memories - odd, ethnic, dark, almost classical moments
with a ambient techno foundation.  Lots of vocal snippets, chants and
samples. Very good.


ivolution: involution - this is ceven key and paris.  experimental
electronics that is very idm oriented.  a slight nod to autechre


drew neumann: eye spy - this is music from the show Aeon Flux. Has a very
classical feel.

hungry ghost: the man ray sessions - a drone cd.  But do not let that
throw you off.  very engaging and at times has an aquatic feel.

Interesting note:  the studio that does the rug rats owns tone casualties.
One of the reasons tone casualties can exist is because that studio is
profitable.  TC is not profitable but is a passion of the owner of the
studio.
