I really love Microstoria, which is 1/2 oval, 1/2 mouse on mars. I've got init ding and recently _snd. Are Oval and Microstoria very similar? I recently read an interview with Markus Popp where he said that Oval is really a concept based project in which he is trying to explore the digital medium, where as in Microstoria its more of a free form looser feeling way of working. But I really enjoy Microstoria. Are there other non-synth pad ambient artists working in this direction. I find it quite refershing <zesty>. I wouldn't really associate it with electroacoustic music becasue there is an underlying melodic theme to many of the tracks, but its very nicely textured and interesting. Sort of like listening to machines dreaming. >I have one Oval album, and haven't gotten into it so much, but it isn't that bad, despite it being made from cd scratches. >However, they(he/her) have a remix on the new Pizzicato 5 remix cd that i find absolutely gorgeous... > > <Jon>m
