i'd say Modus Operandi is a good choice! : )
for the others, i don't know. i have 'Millions Now Living Will Never Die' by Tortoise, which is average/ok/a bit dull to my ears (even Djed) so i haven't tried anything else by them.

Forgot to mention I have only got Astrobotnia's third album. Perhaps the others are better? I mean, there are around 3 tracks I like, and the rest sort of fumble about a bit without holding my interest at all.

Perhaps I mistakenly assumed that if he wasn't particularly good by the third album, the first wouldn't be much cop either.

Good choices anyway, penexpers. I like the other artists, and I'm sure there's a good chance you'll enjoy Astrobotnia (opinions and all that.)

Modus Operandi is classic, everyone should have this masterpiece.
Arovane is also nice...

Sorry to all "Standards" fans. I found it a very difficult listen. I love "TNT", I really liked "Millions now living..." I just couldn't get with the program RE "Standards". I will give it another go, though I have given it a fair few. Maybe with time it's... well anyway.

It's Part 3 as opposed to "the third album by" Astrobotnia, I think, I don't know, but I thought all the Astrobotnia material was done around the same time and released, you know, over 3 discs. I know one of them I'm not keen on. Possibly the third.

Yep, it's part 3.
I had another listen to it today, and I still find a lot of it pretty naff. But whatever rocks peoples' boats I guess.

oh yeah, Photek's Modus Operandi is brilliant. i love everything about this album - its haunting atmosphere, repetative metallic beats and that gloomy ambient flavor... definitely a must-have.

TNT is actually my least favourite, although it's still quite good/great. This is very strange.

as ive mentioned before, they might not be groundbreaking, but you can pop these in at any time anywhere, its like they are perfect
