Radium88 writes wonderfully diverse electronica music (38 tracks of which can be heard here). My favorite, though, is ‘Exile From Planet 8,’ which I included on my recent mix CD: joy. love. energy. defeat. hope. The song builds a wonderful, otherworld-ish atmosphere that makes me feel I’m landing on C.S. Lewis’ Silent Planet. Pay attention near the 1:55 marker to hear one of my favorite instrument entrances of all time.
