Hell yeah!!!
I guess i could have added / Beat on the list,since I've already crossed the line,hehe. 'Postscript' from Beat is like my favorite drone piece ever! It just perfectly goes on and on,changing and interlocking slowly,like any good drone should.I dunno what's happening with them today,except that Martha has released a solo album some time ago.
