I guess it's a matter of taste. Campfire is one of my favorite albums ever...

I just love the dreamy feeling it has. Going to sleep with it as a background is an addiction hehe.

Do you mean the first album "Music Has The Right To Children" or the first ep "Twosim?". I would say 'Music has the right to children' isn't that difficult to find.
Boards of canada is awesome by the way, best Trip Hop/Downtempo/IDM whatever artist, just love them.

I wonder that no one posted this video here for now:

Autechre knows it!

Thats also pretty cool:


As whitelight already mentioned, Richard Devine is also a damn good producer, his abstract tracks are brilliaint.

IDM/Glitch is a pretty cool thing, I'm a big fan of this kind of music. I love to mix some IDM/Glitch drums into my dubstep beats, the whole genre made some big influence on my music productions.

Wow, can't believe I never saw the video for Gantz Graf...This is abstract art/music in it's most powerful form!

my 2 favourite idm labels are sending orbs and merck

sending orbs is more ambient and merck is more glitchy

from sending orbs check out these two albums: secede - tryshasla, kettel - through friendly waters

and from merck: ilkae - pistachio island, mr. projectile - sinking

Oh, man, yeah, I discovered Sending Orbs a few years back - Secede and Kettel are ace! Also read about Mr Projectile in here somewhere, he's making some sublime stuff too. Hecq is pretty damn sick. I also want to recommend a Danish artist called Opiate, has produced some sick stuff, mostly sampled based, saw a very rare live set of his last fall and was completely blown away - one of the freshest mixes I've ever heard, gave me so many sick mental images it was insane.

Also gotto mention Electric Birds in here, he's making some really nice stuff. Marcia Blaine's School For Girls. Fredericson - this guy's latest record is SICK! Can't recommend it enough. Could put Vladislav Delay in here as well, I guess, some rather crazy good sounding stuff.

Just discovered Datach'i. He travels a lot between IDM and Breakcore, wich is very interesting. I'm usually not very interested in agressive music except when it's got that "deep" feeling...wich is the case here, in my opinion.
