Hi again:
I would be remiss if I didn't recommend Jan Jelinek's last two albums, Kosmischer Pitch and Tierbeobachtungen. Kosmisacher Pitch in particular puts me in the same mind as Harmonia....
cheers, ernie

I don't know anything about their current stuff but the old stuff is really great. You can't do that stuff with modern equipment. Musik Von Harmonia is a true classic.

Hi Guys,
I had the great great pleasure of seeing 'Harmonia' earlier this year, and was absolutely blown away. I rushed out and downloaded (I guess in reality I rushed IN then) their two studio albums, but I don't believe they're as good as what I saw. Here's a short clip to give you a rough idea of what it was like:

My question is only tenuously related to pd, but I've found this list such a useful authority on all things electronic music related that I just thought I'd ask-can anyone point me in the direction of other bands doing this kind of thing (the modern clip of Harmonia)? By 'this kind of thing' I mean beat based (and I love how Harmonia's pieces are often mid tempo-not slow and ambient or fast and dancy), with interesting electronic textures, but most of all with interesting /gestures-/as opposed to more shapeless ambience or shapeless chaos. Or just anything you think sounds like them (now). I'd greatly appreciate it.
Babsyco.
