Just today someone asked me if I'd heard of Schneider TM. I hadn't, and I said so.

That cover is called 'Light 3000' and is also in a remix on The Orb's Back to mine album.
Don't ask me more 'bout Shneider, it's the only song I know. :)

okay I have now listened to the Zoomer about 5 times..the fuckers just that catchy..
but I would not go round blindly recommending it...this is basically an old school retro 80's pop album with glitchy elements spread through out..and by glitchy I dont mean the razor sharp clean and tight glitch of the Warp and Schematics artists..no this is closer to Mr.Oizo and Click Hop and Click Techno artists on Mille Plateaux...it's grungy distorted noisy full of clipping rhythms...and yet at the same times..its bright and cheerful and very happy..just like xian_ecci here mentioned..so a bit of Rephlex territory there I suppose..
So because of the 80s pop element (think New Order, Erasure, Pet Shop Boys) and the distorted, clipping nature of the glitch (Stuff I have been tryin to achieve with my own POP project)..it's right up my alley..but others proceed with a bit of caution and /l and listen first before buying..but I am warning..some of the songs are so catchy ( Reality Check, Frogtoise, Abyss, Cuba TM) you might end up buying:p
