a while ago, a mate of mine from trance-addict suggested that I check out an album called "Music Has The Right To Children" by "boards of canada" so i did just that.
and let me tell you, these guys are really good!
Im surprised that nobody here seems to talk about them.
there a little bit of chemical brothers, a little bit of four tet, a touch of Arovane and a tiny bit of Aphex all rolled into one.
Even If you Havent heard of them you might have noticed they have a song on Global Underground 024 (CD 1) called happy cycling
Although some of their simplistic beats make them seem a little cliché they still have their own distinct style and they even throw in some funny stuff here and there.
anybody else here listen to these guys?

Yeah, I figured everyone knew BOC so I never made a thread about it, but I talk to a few IDM-heads so I guess I just assumed they were household names.
But anyway, Music... is obviously one of my all-time favourites, and Geogaddi is not far off. If you haven't heard them before, a good way to start would be the In A Beautiful Place Out In The Country EP, featuring four tracks not on their albums (I think) which pretty much sum up their style.
