BT - This Binary Universe

Over the years I've really lost interest in BT, but every once in a while he's resonated with me. His latest, This Binary Universe is more of a concept album, experimental soundscapes, and a DVD that includes amazing eye candy, well, simply put, I'm interested. Check out the video Interview of BT presented by M-Audio:

Shpongle - 4th Album Official in 2008

I recall rumors that their last album: Nothing Lasts... But Nothing Is Lost was or would be their final album, and I'm not sure why or how this rumor came about. However, it's been confirmed just this past January on the Twisted Records website that Shpongle will in fact be working on their fourth album due to be released in 2008.

"All that time we would have spent working on a live show, we can now put into the studio, so yes there WILL be a Shpongle 4 - Hooray!"
