I don't mind being in the minority here and enjoying electronic music, but I wish we could somehow smuggle Aphex Twin into the Prog Electronic section.

I find that ambient music in general is amazing to work to, especially with a slow downtempo beat, or some electronic touches. PT's Metanoia is easily my favourite study album though, an hour of free space-ambient inprovosiation. Really good at making you focus. I wrote several essays last year while listening to that album.

I've been listening to him on Youtube for the past few days, and from what I've heard I think he deserves a place on PA. But then again, I'm an absolute n00b to prog electronic.

Post-rock or anything instrumental for me.

I do too. I think we should be adding more modern electronic music, there is some very good stuff that is obviously inspired by TD, Eno, & Co, I don't see why we shouldn't.

I almost never use winAMP, most of my plays are on my mp3 player, so they don't get scrobbled.

Edit: I have 1600 and counting.

That's all I found on the Net.
 
 
Definitely not their best, but if you like it, I could send you some of their pieces.

If I'm in my room I've generally got music playing through my computer, so the only stuff that doesn't get scrobbled is the music I play through my Zune.

I got them when they first came out.

As I said, I think I got them from Syn-Phonic.  Have you tried ReR?

It's weird. There's Le Silo's s/t album on ReR. But there's no self-titled album...
