I'm actually getting into alot of this stuff you guys are talking about. I am trying to expand my horizons some, not just trance music, but music that still has melody, textures and is "ethereal" in nature. I started with this type of stuff, well stuff that was more new agey or whatever u want to call it...like Enigma, Delerium, Dead Can Dance, Enya etc. Now that i've been into trance for so many years, it's time to expand. Ulrich is a brilliant producer, one of my favorites right now. I'll check out Manual, might be some good stuff. Indie and post rock and more obscure and ambient electronic stuff is what was recommended to me by a guy I work with (even though he's hardly there) whose a producer and loves post rock stuff. So it would definitely be cool if there were more artists similiar to Ulrich. Royksopp is great too, but I find their stuff a mixture of pop/ambient/new wave and house, with maybe a teeny tiny trance influence. Doesn't quite sound the same as Ulrich, but Royksopp is in a league of their own. M83 definitely sounds more "post-rock" to me, seem to have more rock influence vs. electronic or pop. Boards Of Canada seems similiar too, but from what i've heard..too detached for me. Prefer the warmth of Ulrich, or the rock influences of M83.
