Id like to second the below recomendation of the Zooid album (on Toast & Jam).
really nice stuff. great combo of guitar noodling (in a good way, perhaps 
*slighlty* hinting at a minuitive Dif Juz)) and electronics. a nice fresh 
breeze of melancholy melodic ambientishness with occasional beats. i also 
must recommend another release on Toast & Jam by the group Chimchim called 
_at a childlike speed vol. 1_.
Its like esplendorgeometrico-ized retro skinny puppy put through an idm 
grinder. :)
neat dark stuff :)
looking forward to T & J's next releases :)

 Short note to all who didn't get Toast & Jam 001 - Zooid's
 _sleep-theory_:  highly pleasant music.  At parts laid back and at parts
 more aggressive.  7 tracks of melody.  Reminds me of a more placid
 Labradford on the 1st three tracks but with  foreboding stuff (foreboding
 like right before a hurricane hits-sorta like the quiet before the storm)
 on the remixes 4-6.  Track 7 is a real humdinger of a late-night
 while-you-try-to sleep smile inducer.  If it were a vegetable, you'd
 swear it's a baked potato.  Mushy, warm, and a comforting consistency. 
 With surprising humorous wrinkles.
