I'm listening to a compilation that was part of a series called ''Miscellaneous''. I have a few of these which I found all over the place when sorting out some records recently. They are a mixed bag, and personally I find they got more interesting around the time you had all these ambient people (you ought to hear the sort of crap David Toop submitted to a few of them) got more influenced by jungle or drum and bass. It was around 1995, I think. My personal favourites on this one in particular are Endemic Void's ''Subether'', particularly because rhythmically it kind of reminds me of a lighter, noise-free version of Witchman crossed with the ''poppier'' trip hop that went into the charts, and Tao's ''Jinn'', which is this repetitive electro mantra influenced by raga.*
*as bad as that reads, it's enjoyable to listen to.
