a good place to start to get an overview of Xenakis's electronic side would
be to pick up the EMF/INAgrm disc, "Electronic Muisc".  it got released
last year i believe and it has stuff from three of the four "groupings" of
his music.  btw, it has the aforementioned "Bohor" as well.

i noticed that the Columbia/Princeton axis got mention - i dunno',
personally, i'm not too down with it, but if you're interested, Ussachevsky
is probably the best place to start.  there's a so-so introduction-type
disc to the Columbia/Princeton sound off of CRI called "Pioneers of
Electronic Music".  it has Ussachevsky, Smiley, Alice Shields, etc...
