I've been listening to his album Delivery alot and I must
say, his music is highly groovy.

I especially dig the track, Affaire.

Does anybody else dig Scanner?

yup
Affaire is a phone call of a suicidal man saying goodbye to
his wife..
its depressing

all of his music puts you in states of emotion.

i really enjoy his stuff

His first 'album' (and second and most of the third) was
exactly that, just phone conversations recorded with a
cellphone scanner (hence the name). They're not terribly
interesting after the first listen, but the later stuff is
dead good. After Mass Observation things improve. Listen to
Lauwarm Instrumentals, that's rather nice.

hunting down?

The EP (Mass Observation 95) is probably a better bet that
the Mass Observation album. (The album is half phone
conversations and half listenable music) Especially good on
the EP is Flaneur Electronique. Play that on a system with a
lot of bass! Nice :)
