Both of Ott's albums: Blumenkraft and Skylon.

Shpongle have a very unique and distinct sound which is hard to find among other artists in the same vein!
However, I'd suggest you check out artist such as Celtic Cross ( Incl Posford ),
Shulman, Androcell, Carbon Based Lifeforms, Ishq, Puff Dragon, Soundbreakers, and Bluetech.

Enjoy!

Shpongle is quite unique... but you could try out Younger Brother (one of Simon's side projects), Ott (label mate), Entheogenic, Androcell, Adham Shaikh, Kaminanda, Pitch Black, and Kaya Project for some variety.

As far as I know one of the guys from Sphongle is part of Infected Mushroom, so the OP could check them out too...

Originally posted by Psionic I just listened to a live recording of Shpongle from an event in New York and it was absolutely fantastic. What other groups do live PAs with the same style as Shpongle. I already have Kraftwerk and Chemical Bros. on my list, but I'm looking for something more melodic.

There isn't anyone like shpongle sadly.

I'm suprised no ones mentioned celtic cross yet . Way better then younger brother. Also check out the infinity project (has raja ram), tbh I love raja ram, simons solo stuff isn't so great... needs a good influence. Hence why shpongle (ily raja ram) and celtic cross (ily youth) are so good. If you love the funness of shpongle, def check out the infinity project, they've done both ambient and goa trance (1200 mics first 3 albums aren't bad either, but they are very love/hate). Kraftwerk/chemical bros are nothing like it. Closest thing would probably be 1200 mics, although their latest album is absolutely shit.

That should do it. I saw them perfom in Los Angeles sometime last week and recorded lots of GREAT video. I guess I should edit+upload already...

But really, check them out!!!
