Not for the reasons you quote for liking Bisk, I find that Elfish Echo touches a
similar place for me - but in an ambient vein (which is why I say "not for the
same reasons"). I also find "Ticklish Matters" a different animal than their
previous two releases (which seem a bit more similar to each other stylistically)
- I like 'em all, though. Bisk, EE and Matmos occupy a hard-to-describe
neighborhood in my demographic categorization. Perhaps it's because they're all
difficult to graph.
