Ive recently got into experimental music. More specifically, stuff that combines synthesized digital audio (vocoder use with voice). Anyone else into this stuff?

Some of the artists you listed I would consider pure techno; others (Chromeo) are a bit more electro.

I have most of the Mego and Sahko back catalogs and every NON album for sale if anyone is interested. That should sort you for 'experimental' tones for a while.

You did OK until Wolf Eyes, but that is forgiven for mentioning Kevin (and reminding me to call him).
