    Sendai is great, I first came across them on PvH's Time to Express on System Policy and Sustaining the Chain which are more dancefloor oriented; the albums, though, are the interesting part of the collaboration. As an industrial-experimental techno enthusiast I'm also very much into Yves de Mey's Grey Branches material on Inner Surface.

    Somewhere along the lines of early Warp artists like DiY, DSR, and Rhythm Invention - maybe even early FSOL (aliases), Tales of Z is the first full-length album of semi-psychedelic electronic dance music from Tim Schumacher.

    Sealt is a curious Russian label (with just a couple of mentions here on WATMM) releasing unique limited edition pressings from various electronic artists, e.g. Volor Flex is hazy Burial-ish two-step garage; Ambidextrous should be a familiar name to some with his cinematic ambient works on different labels. Too bad a lot of the releases haven't had full digital releases, but especially the newer ones are also available in digital. Highly recommended.

    I also emailed Lee to ask about Cottage Industries 3-5, he replied that he's working on it to get them up for grabs next year.

    Kaelan and Z.I.P.P.O. take a break from techno and go electro, deep melodic synth sojourns ending in ambience.

    I pulled the albums from the shelf and gave them a thorough, mindful listen: Hanson's production values are dotting the i's and crossing the t's, and he's firmly in my category of top electro producers. Nevertheless, on Exomoon almost all tracks have the same/similar bass sound he's been using and re-using for ages, and the bass patterns and chord progressions have enough in common to be well nigh interchangeable; the percussion sounds and patterns, too. Afterimage has more variance, though the bass sound and basic patterns make an appearance on a track or two there as well. I'm not saying that he is making the same track over and over, but there is certainly an oft-used recipe he varies. These things make his sound instantly recognizable, but to me, many of the tracks blend into one.

    The album material doesn't have as much variance as the EPs do, Hanson's production values are on point but in general his sound is very safe compared to some more adventurous electro producers. ERP is almost always recognizable as ERP, but I couldn't for the life of me name most of his tracks if you played them to me.

    I have to admit that although I have most of Hanson's discography I get very easily bored with ERP, the sound is so self-similar on these albums that they get relegated to background ambience.

    PAN-AL's first album, an interesting mixture of ambient, ethereal beats and electronic shoegaze.

    A Discogs commenter on the release seems to think so.

    Autechre = sufficiently advanced technology.

    Music is math.

    For comparison, e.g. Magic Oneohtrix Point Never, SIGN, PLUS and even Plaid's Polymer are £11 (almost $15) on Warp's Bandcamp - so YMMV.
