Fans of Virgin-era TD should enjoy the discs released by Danish trio Navigator. Especially the album 'Airwaves' which combines powerful sequencing, psychedelic guitar workouts and Phaedra-style soundscapes.

Picking up some of the CD's from Ian Boddy's DIN label. Like this:

Parallel Worlds & Self Oscillate - 'World Adapter'



Strange ambient/glitch sound which is simultaneously unsettling and relaxing. Overall this constructs a quite melodic sonic universe that draws you in and provides some surprises and entertainment.

Excellent crystal-clear recording and production from this Greek/German duo.

Lovers of 'Big Moog' and all things analogue a la early 70's Tangerine Dream just have to try the releases of synth supergroup Node.

More ancient synthesizers than you can handle.

I enjoyed the Navigator track Fretless.

Navigator put out 3 albums, the first called 'Northern Consequences', and the 2 above. Their sound developed into a rockier version of TD around 'Force Majeure' - loads of guitar and sequencer workouts The core duo have also released a series of more ambient albums under the name Timescape (not heard any of that, yet).

In heavy-duty EM collector mode at the moment and have discovered several new (for me) artists.
'Node 2' is just in! Bargain price from Dodax.

Not as keen on Node 2, but I have some Ian Boddy winging its way to me courtesy of the Din Records site.

Can't stop playing 'Node Live' - it's great!

Having just found the DIN music site I have downloaded Ian Boddy's first properly-released album 'The Climb' which I had on LP (remember them?) when it first came out in 1983. To my delight, the downloads via Bandcamp come in a wide selection of formats like MP3 and FLAC - and also pristine WAV! Which sounds absolutely superb.
Boddy's double-live 'Altair' is next on my list, along with any ARC albums that I don't already have.

"As above So Below" ordered on vinyl

Groovy!

Just scored a 2nd-hand CD of this - reputed to be RMI's finest. Shoved it into my laptop for ripping and got severe read-errors.
When I took it out for cleaning I discovered that the disc is signed by all 3 band members.
Made my day !



After cleaning, the CD ripped fine - if anyone cares.
