Bit of a necro, but BoC put out a 2 hour mix a couple of weekends ago that definitely reminds me of the Electric Brain Storm mixes (need some new ones please boys!) featuring of all kinds of psychy-industially-folky-ambienty-misc stuff that I've never heard of before. Alas it doesn't have the lovely mixing skillz of the EBS sets but it's definitely worth a listen for fans of those sets all the same:

The highlight for me is the unfortunately unnamed- 52. ? (piano, synth) (1:33:52)
Lovely bit of 70s/80s analogue ambience....

I think you have to be a 70's child to really understand why they're so nostalgic sounding.

10 years now since i posted about tomorrows harvest coming out and nothing since(apart from some remixes)

i do hope they are both ok and happy in their lives

we've had some brilliant music from them even if they're not the most prolific!
