Looking for music similar to WishFM

February 21, 2006 1:23 PM

I'm really digging this Wish FM cd I bought years ago and I'd like to find some similar music.

I also enjoy Space Time Continuum, Sasha's Involver and Xpander , and FSOL - I'd like some suggestions on similar things.
Streams would be really helpful also. I know about the SomaFM and protonradio so lets hear some others please.

Try using Pandora and setting up "stations" based on artists on those discs. I've been grooving to an Aphex Twin station for the last few weeks.

A few that I like along those lines:
Stasis - Past Movements (collection of works over last 10+ years)
Detroit Escalator Co. - Excerpts (or anything else by him, but you may not find on Amazon)
Bola - Soup
Arovane - Lilies
The Panet Delsin compilation
Anything by Pub

Oh, check out the Lost Language label, notably tracks by Quivver / John Graham / Space Maneouvres.

Also go to Hybridized.org and pull down some radio sets from there.

Stunning, each and every one! :D

Go to last.fm, enter in your artists. See what bands others who listen to them think is similar. Then begin streaming a customised audio feed of a "station" composed of those songs. It's easy, and it works. Here is mine.

Alternatively, you could just look at the pretty pictures...

And here's what someone at Yahoo Music thinks of the current personalisation competition...
