there are 4, and all can be purchased from aleksi perala's band camp. MU 3 & 4 are sometimes credited to AP Musik (one of his aliases).

I'll look into it thank you!

Could throw many an Echospace Detroit release from 2014 into the hat here, but I'll just put forward Variant - Dreaming Thru Vector, which is an exceptionally aurally pleasing (double) album.
