i like his sound! sorry if you have heard of already, i don't go to this part of forums much.

[FreshJive787]

this music makes me feel like i should be playing tetris or something.

[Misereatur]

Ruyi, you should hang out here in the music forum more often.

[supersheep]

Roo, with recommendations like that, you should come here more often.

[pat101]

wow very nice, thanks.

[ALoveSupreme]

I very well may buy this CD.  Awesome.

And his website music thing is easily one of the most genuinly interesting things I've found online in a long time.

[pat101]

is there an album you'd recommend?

[Cernunnos]

I agree. This is good stuff. You should hang out here more often, Ruyi. butcha better keep coming with the goods.

[Lukeypoo]

Wow, this is really quite awesome. Thanks!

Really great! Just what I've been looking for too, so I ordered a copy of "The Electricity in Your House Wants to Sing".

I am not particularly interested in bip bop boop kind of music, but this is pretty fun. Its nice and ambient and melodic, and isn't ridiculously electronic, I might buy this, not as a regular listening kind of thing, but I can think of a few situations where it would do well to have this spinning in my player.

Although I am a little curious as to how electronic musicians come up with names for the songs when they are lacking a lyrical theme with which to label them.

I've always had the same question for those instrumental-type rock groups.

I think some songs just have a theme to them even without lyrics. There are several parts in "The Electricity in Your House Wants to Sing" that sound like a little bird singing. Mogwai's "Hunted by a Freak" is the same way.

I normally just make them up on the spot. Or I will write the title first and make music to evoke it. Sometimes the title will talk about the mood of the song ('Oceanus Procellarum' is the proper name for the Ocean of Storms on the moon, the track is bleak and spacey therefore etc.) sometimes it will be a literary or other reference I have collected which I either write the track to fit, or I think fits in with the track after its finished for one reason or another (The song 'His Hair Was of a Lustrous Black' is all about Frankenstein, and is a line from the description of the monster in the original, 'Starless and Bible Black' is a line from Under Milk Wood (not a King Crimson reference), 'What Did the Romans Ever Do For Us?'...well, you know). Other shit (ie. 'Forensic Musicology', 'Huxley Orwell Overdrive') are just stupid puns or shit I make up.
