I'm glad that Dances is so well regarded and well known... I'm not really that up on what other people in the scene like to listen to but that album kills me every time. My other favorite is Vegavox 2 by Alex Mauer. I also am pretty big into Left and even bigger into Saudade for Beginners by minusbaby. Pamplemousse is also very good as many people have mentioned.
Incidentally, why is it that so many chip musicians seem to have an aversion to the traditional full-length album? Most of the chip "albums" in my collection are 4-7 tracks long.
Also, has Peer done anything else and if not what is the deal?

I've seen the same thing in the netlabel scene.
I like to make believe that they have done me a favor and included just the super special tracks.
I think that either it feels more natural for them to release smaller batches of songs at a time or they just feel it's the best way to maintain a creative presence by being able to frequently promote something new, or both I guess.
"Canned" by Choroid. Choroid (aka Jonathan Dunn, who went on to write a lot of game music) did some of the best Electrosound tracks back in the '80s. This is my particular favourite.
I know RainbowDragonEyes has been mentioned before, at least once, but he's my favorite artist so I've just got to extend my recommendation.
On a side note, are there any artists with a similar style to him? I'd sure be interested to know. I can't get enough of those melodies.
Knife City self titled album! Its inspiring!
