I'd also have to include in the runner up list DJ Shadow, FSOL, Banco de Gaia, Biosphere, New Order, Gordon Lightfoot
Incidentally, I discovered Orb (and joined the list 1st time) whilst high on psilocybin and living in Duluth,MN on the southern-most tip of Lake Superior, the lake the Edmund Fitzgerald sunk... from the Gordon Lightfood song of the same name. Coincidence? I should think not.
Alright, alright, I'll throw my list together.
1. Orb. 1. Because I can't list the orb, according to the subject, I'll put Amon Tobin here.
Rachel and others turned me around to at least give him another chance. I dowloaded one song that sounded like Red Snapper (who should have been on my list, any1 seen them live?). Then I bought Bricolage which I can't get into at all.... which brings me to my next point.
2. Autechre
The only album I can understand less or get into so little is fucking piece of plop Confield. Its like when the Melvins sold my buddy (a fan?) the "You Just Took a Bite of Shit Sandwich" LP that was blank (but autographed). What a polished turd? I got Gans Graf though and the DVD is cool.
1. Cocteau Twins 2. The Clash 3. Superchunk 4. (this is where The Orb goes) 5. Billy Bragg 6. The Dismemberment Plan 7. Boards of Canada 8. Do Make Say Think 9. The Dirty Three 10. Wire 11. Landing
This person I admire (as do I the rest of you) cuz I only know 3-4 people on his list. WoW! Were is KWisSy? Last spotted on the tarmac hopping a flight to Belize to avoid the wrath of his former November 17th Co-conspirators... presumibaly having his fill (or phil?) of Corona Light and Senator Santorum shots on a wind swept stretch of privately owned beachfront property whilst constantly tugging at the wasteband of the hastily purchased Tommy Hilfiger blue hawaiian print swimtrunks he got at a Bath yard-sale. phew.
