A warning though: you will never find another outfit who integrate the dub ethic so well into electronic music. They own it.

Guest 277: 930-933 Posted June 16, 2009 Report Share Posted June 16, 2009 Check out some of Thomas Fehlmann's solo work. One of my favourite tracks of his is Du Fehlst Mir of Streets of Blah ep on Kompakt.

True, but they're both awesome, and stylistically they're in the same area code at least... so if you like one there's a good chance you'll like the other, no?

goDel Posted June 16, 2009 Report Share Posted June 16, 2009 the ambient klf albums should be obvious picks seeing that they've been made by -at least- half the early orb crew.
