umm, i think Kaen is just a fan of his stuff that made up the 'archive' site. Wisp's name is Reid Dunn, though i think he may be on WATMM as well? not sure...

actually, the only thing i've downloaded from there so far is 'about things that never were' so i'll say start with that. i was listening the other night thinking 'man, this stuff is top notch in many ways'. i think there's a bit of variety in his work (i think he also does some drill n' bass type stuff lately), but i like this style best.

I just listened to some samples over at the Sublight site and I gotta say there's nothing really amazing there. :| Some of it sounds ok, but it's a little to drum & bassey for my tastes. I tried to download an album from Kaens site, but I can't open the file. Anyone recomend a more chilled out album?

like i said, try 'about things...'. i'm not into dnb or drillcore myself either. i'll try to recommend others once i've listened more, his stuff is a bit varied.

"About things that never were" is nice (ok, AFX clone, but a good one), "In a blue face" is in the same vein, and you can stream this one before downloading: http://www.earstroke.com.

The netlabel jungle is such a jungle, it's not easy to find gems, so thanks for the recommendation (when I say "gem", I mean albums or EPs you will listen more than one time only, that you'll recommend to friends, and that you may even want to burn on a cdr, which is the case here).

if anyone DOES like EXTREMELY MELODIC drill n bass add me on soulseek (kem1kal) and download from my top 10 folder, the "karsten pflum" album

you will be surprised, this is now one of my faves

it's great, at the end he goes on with his total swedish accent "blah ambient techno experimental beats, experimental free jazz, trip hop, yadda yadda yadda... KARSTENPFLUMSTYLE... karsten pflum!!"
