My favourite TMBG album has got to be Factory Showroom or Spines. As for 
other guys... if you haven't heard Tangerine Dream, give it a whirl. If 
you enjoy crazy synthesizer music, that is...

I bought it for Mars, but it turns out there are several other seriously 
cool tracks on there. I seem to have picked a particularly good 
recording too, which is nice. Neptune is just... wow.

BTW, note that it's far from being the only orchestral recording. It's 
just the only one that's written a long time ago. There's a couple of 
other classical pieces I'd like to own - but good luck finding them! (Or 
even finding out their names...)

And ah... woah. You have a much bigger music collection than me. And 
[surprise!] I've never heard of most of it.

I have run into the name "Mogwai" several times though. I have no idea 
what that sounds like. Similarly, every time I go into a music shop I 
find myself wanting to by YES albums just to look at the pictures... no 
idea what the music sounds like.
