Early- industrial groups like Ministry, Skinny Puppy, and Thrill Kill. Even NIN.

Mid- Aphex Twin, Shpongle

Late- Boards of Canada and Burial. I think Archangel by the latter was what really did it. That changed my life.

I guess our tastes overlap some too. I’m quite fond of Boards of Canada, appreciate but don’t actually listen much anymore to Aphex Twin and am as of now a Shpongle fan. Had recently been told I should give it a listen, just now heard Divine Moments of Truth and am on iTunes doing some downloading. So thanks for the reminder.

I don’t know where people find music anymore. I haven’t really been much of a listener or researcher in a very long time. I don’t have an I pod, or even CDs, and the only shows I go to are my friends’ black metal band practices. I get my samples from weird CDs at the public library.

Very interesting… you have very similar tastes to my bandmate. This likely explains why I naturally dig what you create…
