I really like Thomas Pridgen's drumming style on that album. As soon as I press play I also commence manic air-drumming.

Yes, the only way to listen to Bedlam is to crank it up until you can really hear the drums

I'm definitely listening to The Mars Volta on the way home now.

Yeah, I found him while browsing the Prog Electronic artists last night...one artist at a time.  I've not listened to any Monolake yet, what's their stuff like? 

Also, there are two live versions of Layering Buddha available as free downloads on his website.  The first is from 2007, and according to him it's got some breaks and errors in the recording, and the second is from 2008, and doesn't have any.  If you can't find his stuff to listen to anywhere else (I listened on Spotify), you have those if nothing else. Wink

I'm listening to the retail version of Layering Buddha right now and I like it a lot more than Monolake. Monolake is minimal techno, basically as minimal as techno can get before it becomes ambient but still uses a steady percussive beat throughout the tracks. I'm not really a minimal techno fan, but I can sometimes be in the mood for it. 

But I'm really liking Henke's solo work, thanks for the recommendation. Big smile

No problem, glad you enjoy it.  I've been in a bizarro Krautrock/prog electronic (mostly Berlin school style) mood lately, so I've been trying to find more from each of those styles.

I don't know what you have or haven't heard, but I've been listening to a lot of Cluster/Kluster lately and I would highly recommend those to you. Also, Cosmic Jokers have some really great electronic jams.

Certainly grew on me.
And I guess TMV can never put up any junk music, that's for Omar to release in dozens of solo albums every year.

Metatron and the last section of Goliath have mind blowing drum parts.

You know what doesn't have mind blowing drum parts? Chinese classical music. 

I've been diggin' the hell out of some Chinese classical music lately.

Shiiiit, that's great.


Nice.

It's a shame the other Eider Stellaire albums are a bit sh*t. LOL

Oh so he has. A whole album. I need this


Did you see the Spaghetti Western Orchestra at the Proms, Mark?

'twas most excellent and consisted entirely of Morricone tracks.

I highly anticipate Devo's next album, which I believe is going to be called "Pony Luv".

It was avant-garde too.  Very good Australian band.  Let me see if there's YouTube clips.

Not the BBC proms but:

I saw those fellows play on Jools Holland. I must say I was very impressed.

I missed them on Jools Holland but noticed they had been on there when looking for videos.

Indeed.  They're excellent.  They don't use any standard instruments really either.
