Layered Listening - akin to Flaming Lips, Pink Floyd
Steve Burns - Songs for Dust Mites This album had a lot of help from the members of Flaming Lips. Same production levels and very similar layering techniques. It actually gets criticized for sounding too much like Yoshimi. -
good electronic music to relax to?
